Cookie Policy

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser. They help our site remember preferences, enable core functionality, and (when you opt in) allow us to measure and improve the product.

2. Types of cookies we use

• Essential cookies — Required for the app to work (authentication, security, session). These are always active.
• Preference cookies — Store choices such as language, theme, and UI settings.
• Analytics cookies — Collect anonymous usage data to help us improve features and performance.
• Advertising cookies — Used only if you opt in; help deliver relevant marketing (we don’t serve third‑party ads by default).

3. How we use cookies

We use cookies to: keep you signed in, remember your preferences, measure how our features are used, and (with consent) personalise the content you see. Essential cookies are required for security and cannot be switched off.

4. Third‑party cookies

We sometimes allow trusted third parties (analytics providers, payment processors) to set cookies on our site. These services are listed in our Privacy Policy and subject to their own terms.

5. Manage your cookies

Use the controls below to update your cookie preferences. Preferences are stored locally in your browser and (optionally) can be registered with our backend for cross‑device consistency.

Note: Clearing your browser data will remove local cookie preferences. To persist preferences across devices, enable server-side consent recording (see developer notes).

6. Disable cookies

You can disable cookies at the browser level — see your browser help for instructions. Disabling non-essential cookies may reduce functionality or personalization.

7. Data retention

Cookie lifetimes vary: session cookies expire when you close your browser; persistent cookies expire after a set time. Analytics cookies are typically retained for 26 months or less depending on the provider.
