This Cookie Policy explains how WannaDate LLC (doing business as WannaDate?) ("Company," "we," "us," and "our") uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website at https://wannadate.app ("Website"). It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

In some cases, cookies may collect information that is considered personal information, or may become personal information when combined with other data.

Our services are currently offered to users in the United States. We may update this policy when we expand to other regions.

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners in order to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, WannaDate LLC) are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., advertising, interactive content, and analytics). The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.

We use first- and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our Website to operate, and we refer to these as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. Other cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Website. Third parties serve cookies through our Website for advertising, analytics, and other purposes. This is described in more detail below.

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie rights by setting your preferences in our Cookie Consent Manager. The Cookie Consent Manager allows you to select which categories of cookies you accept or reject. Essential cookies cannot be rejected as they are strictly necessary to provide you with services.

The Cookie Consent Manager appears in the notification banner when you first visit our Website. You can update your preferences at any time by clicking "Consent Preferences" in the footer of our Website. Your choices are stored in local storage for up to 12 months. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our Website though your access to some functionality and areas of our Website may be restricted. You may also set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies.

The specific types of first- and third-party cookies served through our Website and the purposes they perform are described in the table below. Please note that the specific cookies served may vary depending on the pages you visit and services you use. We may update this list as we change our infrastructure or third-party services.

Examples of cookies we or our service providers may use include (non-exhaustive):

| Cookie / storage name | Type | Purpose | Expires | |--------------------------------------|--------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------| | `session` | Essential | Maintains logged-in session and authentication | Up to 7 days | | `csrf-secret` | Essential | CSRF protection for form submissions | Up to 1 hour | | `WANNADATE_COOKIE_CONSENT` (storage) | Essential | Stores your cookie/consent preferences in browser local storage | Up to 12 months | | `cf_clearance` / `__cf_*` | Essential | Set by Cloudflare for security and performance controls | Varies (provider-set) | | `_ga*` / similar analytics cookies | Analytics | Helps us understand how visitors use the Website (when analytics enabled)| Up to 24 months | | `adsbygoogle`-related identifiers | Advertising | Supports ad delivery and measurement for Google AdSense (when enabled) | Varies (provider-set) |

Essential website cookies:

These cookies are strictly necessary to provide you with services available through our Website and to use some of its features, such as access to secure areas and session management.

Examples of essential cookies we or our service providers may use:

  • Session cookies: Required for authentication and to keep you logged in as you navigate the Website.
  • Security cookies: Used to support security features and protect against fraud.
  • Load-balancing cookies: May be set by our hosting or CDN providers to distribute traffic.

If you use third-party services that integrate with our Website, those services may set their own essential cookies. The specific cookies served may vary over time as we update our services.

Performance and functionality cookies:

These cookies are used to enhance the performance and functionality of our Website but are non-essential to their use. However, without these cookies, certain functionality may become unavailable.

Examples include:

  • Analytics cookies: Help us understand how visitors interact with our Website (e.g., pages viewed, time spent).
  • Preference cookies: Remember your settings and preferences.
  • CDN/performance cookies: May be set by providers such as Cloudflare to enhance security and performance.

The specific cookies served may vary depending on our current service providers. We will update this policy when we make material changes to the cookies we use.

Analytics and advertising technologies are activated only where configured and, for non-essential categories, subject to your consent preferences.

As the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser to browser, you should visit your browser's help menu for more information. The following links provide instructions for managing cookies on popular browsers:

Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We may use other, similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called "tracking pixels" or "clear gifs"). These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enables us to recognize when someone has visited our Website or opened an email including them. This allows us, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within a website to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to the website from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to improve site performance, and to measure the success of email marketing campaigns. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and so declining cookies will impair their functioning.

We do not use Flash cookies or Local Shared Objects (LSOs). Adobe Flash Player is deprecated and we do not rely on Flash for any Website functionality.

Third parties may serve cookies on your computer or mobile device to serve advertising through our Website. These companies may use information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services that you may be interested in. They may also employ technology that is used to measure the effectiveness of advertisements. They can accomplish this by using cookies or web beacons to collect information about your visits to this and other sites in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services of potential interest to you. The information collected through this process does not enable us or them to identify your name, contact details, or other details that directly identify you unless you choose to provide these.

Some web browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. There is currently no universal standard for how websites respond to DNT signals. We do not currently respond to DNT browser signals. For more information about DNT, visit https://allaboutdnt.com/.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Please therefore revisit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.

The date at the top of this Cookie Policy indicates when it was last updated.
