Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how aBetterFoodApp ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on aBetterFoodApp (the "Service").
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website when you visit it. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently and to provide information to site operators.
2. Cookies We Use
We use only strictly necessary cookies. We do not use advertising, analytics, profiling, or third-party tracking cookies of any kind.
Session cookie (session)
- Purpose: Keeps you authenticated while you are logged in. Without this cookie the Service cannot function — it is the mechanism that identifies your account across page loads.
- Type: HTTP-only, Secure, SameSite=Lax session cookie.
- Duration: The cookie expires when you close your browser session or log out.
- Set by: aBetterFoodApp (first-party). Not shared with any third party.
We also store a small item in your browser's localStorage (not a cookie) called cookie_consent to remember that you have acknowledged this notice, so we do not show it on every page. This item does not leave your device.
3. Strictly Necessary Cookies and Consent
Under the EU ePrivacy Directive and GDPR, strictly necessary cookies — those essential for the operation of a service explicitly requested by the user — are exempt from the requirement to obtain prior consent. Because the session cookie is required solely to deliver the authentication service you have requested by logging in, we do not ask for your consent before placing it.
We still inform you about it through this Policy and the notice bar shown when you first visit the Service.
4. No Analytics or Advertising Cookies
We do not use Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, or any other analytics or advertising platform. No information about your browsing behaviour on this Service is shared with advertisers or data brokers.
5. Third-Party Cookies
When you complete a payment through Stripe, you are redirected to Stripe's checkout interface. Stripe may set its own cookies governed by Stripe's Privacy Policy. We have no control over those cookies.
No other third-party cookies are loaded by the Service.
6. How to Manage or Delete Cookies
You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Please note that deleting the session cookie will log you out of the Service. Below are links to cookie management instructions for the most common browsers:
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Material changes that affect how we use cookies will be communicated via the cookie notice banner on the Service.
