Cookie Policy

1. About This Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Texture, Inc. ("the Company," "we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on gettexture.org (the "Site"). It supplements our Privacy Policy. gettexture.org is the marketing and information site for the Texture grid-orchestration platform; it does not process grid telemetry or DER operational data directly.

2. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow us to recognize your device across pages, store preferences, and measure how visitors navigate the site. We also use related technologies such as local storage for the cookie-banner dismissal state.

3. How We Use Cookies

Because gettexture.org is a B2B information site visited primarily by utility professionals, we do not run behaviorally targeted advertising cookies. The analytics cookies we use are configured to anonymize IP addresses and do not build cross-site behavioral profiles.

4. Notice and Choice

We operate a notice-only consent model for visitors from the United States. When you visit gettexture.org, a banner informs you of our cookie use. Non-essential cookies (analytics) are active by default under this model. You can opt out of analytics cookies at any time using the banner or by configuring your browser. To reopen the cookie preference banner, use the "Cookie preferences" link in the site footer.

5. Universal Opt-Out Signals

Where applicable state law requires, including under California, Colorado, Connecticut, Texas, and Oregon privacy statutes, we honor browser-transmitted opt-out signals such as the Global Privacy Control ("GPC"). When your browser sends a GPC signal, our cookie banner script suppresses analytics initialization regardless of your prior dismissal state. We do not sell or share personal information for targeted advertising.

6. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies may be set by third parties acting as our service providers, such as analytics processors. We have data-processing agreements with such providers that limit their use of data to providing the analytics service on our behalf. We do not permit third-party analytics vendors to use data collected on gettexture.org for their own advertising or profiling purposes.

7. Managing Cookies

• Use our cookie banner (accessible via "Cookie preferences" in the footer) to opt out of analytics;
• Your browser settings allow you to block or delete cookies; see aboutcookies.org for browser-specific instructions;
• Blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect site functionality such as form submission.

8. Changes and Contact

We may update this policy when we change our analytics stack or add new cookie categories. The "Last updated" date at the top will reflect any such change.
