Cookie Policy

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device to store data that can be retrieved by the server later. When you visit RelationshipReferee.ai, we may use cookies and similar tracking technologies (such as web beacons or pixels) to collect certain information automatically. These technologies help the site remember your preferences, keep you logged in, and understand how you use our Service.

How We Use Cookies

We use cookies and related technologies for several reasons:

• Necessary Cookies: These cookies are essential for the website to function properly. For example, they may enable basic features like page navigation, account login, authentication, and security. Without these cookies, the Service may not perform as expected. These cookies do not store personal information and are typically first-party cookies (set by us).
• Functional Cookies: These cookies remember choices you make (such as your language or region, or other preferences) to provide a more personalized experience. They may also enable enhanced features, like remembering form inputs. If we use functional cookies, it's to improve convenience and site functionality.
• Analytics Cookies: We use analytics cookies to collect information about how visitors interact with our Service. For instance, we use Google Analytics to gather aggregated data on site traffic, popular pages, usage patterns, and any errors encountered. This helps us improve the Service's performance and user experience. The information collected by these cookies is generally statistical and not personally identifying. Google Analytics may set its own cookies; however, we have configured it not to collect personal identifiers.
• Advertising Cookies: Advertising or marketing cookies are used to track visitors across websites and display relevant advertisements. RelationshipReferee.ai uses the Meta Pixel (from Facebook/Instagram) to help measure ad campaign effectiveness and reach users who might be interested in our Service. The Pixel cookie tracks certain actions (like visiting our site or signing up) and reports them to Meta Platforms, which can use the data to optimize our ads or build audiences for advertising. These cookies may collect device identifiers and browsing information. Any data collected is used in accordance with our Privacy Policy and Meta's policies. We do not share information that personally identifies you (like your name or contact information) with advertising cookies, and we obtain consent where required before setting these cookies on your device.
• Third-Party Cookies: Some cookies on our site are placed by third parties on our behalf (for example, Google and Meta as mentioned). We may also embed content from external services (such as a YouTube video or a social media share button), which could set cookies of their own. We do not have direct control over third-party cookies, so we recommend you review those third parties' cookie and privacy policies on their websites.

Your Choices: Managing Cookies

Consent

By using our Service, you are deemed to consent to the use of cookies as described in this Policy, except to the extent you take action to disable them. Where required by law (such as certain jurisdictions or when using advertising cookies), we will present you with a cookie consent banner or settings to manage your preferences on your first visit.

Browser Settings

You have the right to accept or reject cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. You can also delete cookies that have already been set. Please note that disabling certain cookies (particularly the necessary ones) may affect the functionality of our Service – for example, you might not be able to log in or use certain features if cookies are disabled.

Analytics Opt-Out

To opt out of Google Analytics tracking, you can install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on which prevents Google Analytics from collecting information on your visits. Google also provides its own instructions on how to opt out of analytics and ads tracking in its Privacy & Terms site.

Advertising Choices

If you want to opt out of interest-based advertising and cookies across many websites (including ours), you have several options:

• Adjust your browser settings to block third-party cookies (this can limit tracking by advertisers).
• Use industry opt-out tools: For example, the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) offers an opt-out platform where you can opt out of many advertising cookies from participating companies, and the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) offers a similar opt-out tool for web and AppChoices for mobile devices. In Europe, you can use the EDAA's YourOnlineChoices (though our Service primarily targets U.S. and Canadian users).
• Facebook/Meta settings: If you have a Facebook account, you can opt out of certain ads by adjusting your ad preferences on Facebook (this may reduce how Meta uses data from partners like us to show you ads).

Please note that opting out of personalized ads does not mean you will no longer see ads online; it means the ads you see may be less relevant to your interests. Also, your opt-out choices typically rely on cookies themselves – if you clear cookies, you may need to renew your opt-out choices.

Do Not Track

Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that lets you tell websites not to track you. The web industry has not yet agreed on a common standard for DNT signals, and accordingly, our Service does not currently respond to Do Not Track signals. We will update this policy if that changes in the future.

Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. If the changes are significant, we will notify users by an appropriate means (e.g., via a notice on our website). The "Last Updated" date at the top will indicate when the latest changes were made. We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy periodically to stay informed about our use of cookies.
