FlingsterChat Cookie Policy

Effective Date: July 16, 2026 · Last Updated: July 16, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how FlingsterChat uses cookies and similar technologies. Read it together with the Privacy Policy.

1. What Is a Cookie?

A cookie is a small piece of data that a website stores through your browser. Cookies can help maintain a session, remember your settings, protect accounts, measure performance, understand how features are used, and support advertising where applicable. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels, software development kits (SDKs), tags, and device identifiers, which can serve comparable purposes.

2. Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are required for the site and service to function. They support security, session management, load balancing, fraud prevention, remembering your cookie-consent choices, login, payment-flow continuity, and basic operation of the platform. Blocking them may break parts of FlingsterChat. Where legally permitted, these cookies may be used without optional consent because they are necessary to provide the service you request.

3. Preference Cookies

Preference cookies remember choices that make the experience more convenient, such as your language, device and interface preferences, chat settings, selected mode, display preferences, and consent choices. Removing them may cause the site to prompt you for these settings again.

4. Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how users interact with FlingsterChat. They may measure page visits, feature use, session duration, navigation paths, errors, performance, device and browser categories, and general regional usage. FlingsterChat uses Google Analytics 4 (GA4) for analytics. These tools are configured to collect only appropriate information. Where required, we do not set optional analytics cookies until you give consent.

5. Advertising and Marketing Cookies

FlingsterChat does not currently use advertising or remarketing cookies. We do not run advertising pixels, build advertising audiences, or personalise ads on this website.

If that changes, this Cookie Policy and the consent interface will be updated first, and where consent is required such cookies would remain disabled until you agree.

6. Security and Fraud-Prevention Technologies

We may use identifiers and technical signals to detect unusual activity, prevent automated abuse, protect payment flows, limit repeated misuse of free offers, investigate account compromise, and enforce our rules. Some of these technologies may be necessary for the operation of the platform.

7. First-Party and Third-Party Cookies

• First-party cookies — set by FlingsterChat for its own operation and to remember your preferences.
• Third-party cookies — set by providers that support analytics, payments, security, and content delivery. The analytics provider we use is Google Analytics 4 (GA4).

Third parties process data in accordance with their own policies.

8. Session and Persistent Cookies

• Session cookies — expire when you close the browser.
• Persistent cookies — remain for a defined period or until you remove them.

A cookie's lifetime depends on its purpose and the provider.

9. How to Manage Cookies

You can manage cookies through the FlingsterChat consent tool, your browser settings, your device settings, provider opt-out tools, and any applicable privacy controls. Disabling optional cookies should not normally prevent basic access, though some features may behave differently. Deleting cookies may sign you out or reset your choices.

10. Browser Settings

Most browsers let you view and delete cookies, block future or third-party cookies, clear site data, and create exceptions. The exact steps vary by browser and version. See our Help Center for general guidance, and also consult your browser's official support resources.

11. Consent Choices

Where required, we provide clear choices so you can accept all optional cookies, reject optional cookies, manage categories, and change a previous choice. Our consent banner does not describe optional tracking as essential. Recording your consent may itself require an essential cookie.

12. Do Not Track and Privacy Signals

Some browsers and devices may send signals such as Do Not Track or another recognised mechanism. The required response to these signals depends on applicable law and the technologies involved.

13. Cookies and Chat Content

Cookies generally store identifiers and settings rather than the full live video or audio conversation. For how chat content is processed, transmitted, or retained, see the Privacy Policy.

14. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy when technologies, providers, or legal requirements change. The updated date appears on this page. If we add a new analytics, payment, or support tool, we will update this policy first.
