Cookie Policy for Korgi

Last updated: January 10, 2024

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small pieces of data, stored in text files, that are stored on your computer or other device when websites are loaded in a browser. They are widely used to "remember" you and your preferences, either for a single visit (through a "session cookie") or for multiple repeat visits (using a "persistent cookie"). They ensure a consistent and efficient experience for visitors, and perform essential functions such as allowing users to register and remain logged in. Cookies may be set by the site that you are visiting (known as "first-party cookies"), or by third parties, such as those who serve content or provide advertising or analytics services on the website ("third-party cookies"). Both websites and HTML emails may also contain other tracking technologies such as "web beacons" or "pixels." These are typically small transparent images that provide statistics, for similar purposes as cookies. They are often used in conjunction with cookies, though they are not stored on your computer in the same way. As a result, if you disable cookies, web beacons may still load, but their functionality will be restricted.

How We Use Cookies

We use cookies for a number of different purposes, detailed below. Because there is no industry-standard method for disabling cookies without also disabling the functionality they add to this app and our offerings, it is recommended you leave all cookies on.

The Cookies We Set

We use cookies to allow you to sign in and move around the app and to display and allow you to access sections and features that are restricted to registered users. These cookies are essential for the app to function and are required in order to use the app.

Account Creation

If you create an account with us, we use cookies to manage the sign up process and general administration. These cookies typically are cleared when you log out.

We use cookies when you're logged in to "remember" you're logged in and prevent you from having to log in every time you visit a new section in the app. These cookies typically are cleared when you log out.

The Third-Party Cookies We Use

We use third-party cookies for sitewide analytics that allow us to measure and improve site performance, for analyzing how subscribers interact with the marketing content we send, for payment processing and fraud prevention, and to reduce website spam and abuse.

Analytics

This app uses Google Analytics to see how visitors and users move around the site and what pages are least and most accessed. Analytics services such as Google Analytics place their own cookies or web tags on your browser. For more information, please visit Google's page explaining "How Google uses data when you use our partners' sites or apps."

Marketing Automation

This app uses a third-party service, to send newsletters and other content to subscribers. You must opt-in to receive this content. Marketing emails contain a transparent pixel that sends a notification to the service provider when an email has been opened.

Payment Processing

This app uses a third-party payment processor, currently Stripe, to manage user subscriptions. Stripe may install cookies on your device, as stated in their cookie policy, to process payments and prevent fraud.

Spam Prevention

This app uses a third-party CAPTCHA system, currently Google's Invisible reCAPTCHA, to protect the app from spam and abuse by distinguishing human users from automated bots when a Contact form is submitted on our app. Google reCAPTCHA also sets cookies for the purposes of marketing and tracking. The Google Privacy Policy and Terms of Service apply.

Controlling Cookies

You may wish to restrict the use of cookies or completely prevent them from being set. Most browsers provide ways to control cookie behavior, such as the length of time they are stored, either through built-in functionality or by utilizing third-party plugins. On a mobile device, you may also be able to adjust your settings to limit tracking. If you disable cookies, please be aware that some of the features of our app may not function correctly. To find out more about how to manage and delete cookies, visit aboutcookies.org.

Clearing Cookies

You can clear cookies that have been set by visiting the Settings section of your browser. Be aware that clearing cookies in your browser will affect core functionality of this app, and you will be required to log in again in order to continue using it.

Disabling Cookies

You can prevent cookies from being set by adjusting the settings of your browser. Be aware that disabling cookies in your browser will result in disabling core functionality of this app and you may not be able to continue using it.

Opting Out of Third-Party Cookies

  1. You can opt out of our marketing cookies by unsubscribing from our marketing list. Select the "Unsubscribe" button at the bottom of any marketing content we email to you.
  2. Google Analytics offers its own opt-out choices; for example, you can opt out by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
