What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, provide a better user experience, and give website owners useful information.
How WishPanda Uses Cookies
We use cookies for the following purposes:
- Authentication cookies: These keep you logged in as you navigate between pages. Without these, you would need to log in on every page. These are essential for the app to function.
- Preference cookies: These remember your settings and choices, such as whether you have completed the onboarding flow. This prevents you from seeing the onboarding screens every time you visit.
- Session cookies: These are temporary cookies that are deleted when you close your browser. They help maintain your session state.
Analytics Cookies
We may use analytics cookies to understand how visitors interact with WishPanda. This data helps us improve the app experience. Analytics data is collected in aggregate and does not identify individual users. We may use services such as Vercel Analytics for this purpose.
Advertising Cookies
For free-tier users, WishPanda displays advertisements through Google AdSense. Google may set cookies on your device to serve personalized ads based on your browsing history and interests. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ad Settings.
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on WishPanda are set by third-party services we use:
- Supabase: Sets authentication cookies to manage your login session securely.
- Google: May set cookies for OAuth authentication and ad personalization.
- Vercel: May set cookies for performance monitoring and analytics.
Managing Cookies
You can control and manage cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:
- View what cookies are stored on your device
- Delete all or specific cookies
- Block cookies from all or specific websites
- Set preferences for first-party vs third-party cookies
Please note that blocking essential cookies (like authentication cookies) will prevent you from logging in to WishPanda. You can still view public wishlist pages without cookies.
