Cookie Policy

At LoveHalfBlind, we aim to be clear and transparent about how we use cookies and similar technologies. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, why we use them, and how you can control them.
If you only want to adjust your choices, you can manage cookie and tracking preferences through (i) your in-app privacy/settings controls (where available) and (ii) your browser/device settings (described below).
This Cookie Policy covers cookies and similar technologies used on our website and, where relevant, within our app (via SDKs). It does not describe all the ways we process personal information outside of cookies. For more information, please see our Privacy Policy (available within the Service and on our website).

1) What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your browser or device. A cookie typically includes:
● the domain (Internet location) that set it,
● how long it lasts (its “lifetime”), and
● a unique identifier (often a random number).
Cookies may also store information such as your preferences and how you interact with the Service (for example, pages visited, features used, or session status)

2) Are there different types of cookies?

Yes. Cookies can be categorized in several ways:
First-party and third-party cookies
● First-party cookies are set by us directly. For example, we may use these to remember basic preferences and keep you signed in (where applicable).
● Third-party cookies are set by partners or service providers we use to help operate, secure, analyze, or measure our Service.
Session and persistent cookies
● Session cookies last only until you close your browser. They help with basic functions during a single visit.
● Persistent cookies remain on your device for a longer period (or until you delete them). They help remember preferences and enable analytics over time.

3) What about other tracking technologies (pixels, tags, SDKs)?

We may also use technologies that function like cookies, including:
● Web beacons/pixels/tags: small files that help us understand when a page is viewed or an email is opened.
● Tracking URLs: links that help us understand where website traffic comes from (for example, a campaign link).
● SDKs (Software Development Kits): code in mobile apps that helps measure app performance, prevent fraud, and understand feature usage.
For simplicity, we refer to cookies and these similar technologies together as “cookies” in this Cookie Policy.

4) What do we use cookies for?

We use cookies to help provide, secure, and improve the Service. Depending on how you use LoveHalfBlind and what choices you make, cookies may be used to:
● Run the Service: enable core functionality (like security checks, load balancing, language preferences, and remembering your settings).
● Keep users safe: detect suspicious activity, prevent abuse, enforce our rules, and protect account integrity.
● Understand and improve: analyze how the website and app are used, identify bugs, improve performance, and test new features.
● Measure marketing effectiveness: understand whether campaigns bring traffic or installs and how users engage afterwards.
● Personalize content (where applicable): remember your preferences so your experience is smoother and more relevant.
In some cases, we may link information from cookies with other information we hold (for example, an account identifier) to provide safety features, debug issues, or improve the Service.

5) Types of cookies we use

When you use our website or app, some or all of the following types of cookies may be set on your device:
Essential cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary to provide the Service and help keep it secure. They support basic features such as site functionality, security protections, fraud prevention, and saving core preferences.
Analytics cookies
These cookies help us understand how people use the Service (for example, which pages are popular, how long pages take to load, and where errors occur). This helps us improve reliability and user experience.
Advertising & marketing cookies (if enabled / if used)
These cookies help measure marketing effectiveness and, where applicable, make ads more relevant. They may help prevent the same ad from repeatedly appearing, measure ad performance, and understand what traffic a campaign drives.
Social/Sharing cookies (if enabled / if used)
These cookies support social sharing features or integrations (for example, sharing a page or content through third-party services). They may also be used for measurement or advertising purposes by those third parties.
We may not use every category at all times. Availability can depend on your region, product configuration, and your choices.

6) How can you control cookies?

You have several options. Please note: disabling some cookies may make the Service less functional, less secure, or less personalized. In some cases, certain features may not work.
A) Controls we provide
Where available, you can adjust cookie/tracking preferences in the Service (for example, in Settings or Privacy controls). If we offer a consent banner on the website, you can use it to manage cookie categories.
B) Browser controls (website)
Most browsers allow you to control cookies through settings, including blocking or deleting cookies. Each browser is different—check your browser’s help menu for steps.
C) Device controls (mobile)
Your mobile device may let you control tracking permissions or reset device identifiers. Check your device settings for privacy and tracking options.
D) Interest-based advertising choices
Depending on your device and region, you may be able to limit personalized ads through your device settings (for example, ad personalization settings provided by the platform or OS). Opting out does not remove ads entirely—it typically reduces personalized ad targeting. If you delete cookies after adjusting your preferences, you may need to set them again.

7) Google and analytics services (if we use them)

We may use analytics and performance measurement tools (for example, Google Analytics or similar services) to understand website trends and improve performance. These tools may use cookies or similar technologies to collect usage information such as pages visited, time spent, device/browser type, and events.
If we use Google services that set cookies, Google may provide separate controls for how it uses data. You can learn more at:
https://policies.google.com/technologies/cookies
https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
If we enable Google Analytics on the website, Google offers an opt-out browser add-on:
https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
and ad personalization settings:
https://adssettings.google.com/
If we do not use a particular Google service at a given time, then the related cookies may not apply.

8) Updates to this Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. The “Last Updated” date at the top indicates when changes take effect. If changes are material, we may provide additional notice through the Service.
