Cookie Policy
Version 1.0 — Effective August 15, 2026
This is a courtesy translation. The Spanish version prevails in the event of any discrepancy.
This policy explains what cookies and similar technologies MatchAI uses, why, and how you can control them. It forms part of the Privacy Notice.
1. What they are
Cookies are small files a site stores in your browser. We also use equivalent technologies: local storage (localStorage, sessionStorage) and, in the mobile app, secure device storage.
2. What we use
| Category | Purpose | Examples | Consent required? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Keep you signed in, protect against CSRF, remember your language and your acceptance of the legal documents | Session token, matchai.lang, matchai.legal_consent |
No: the Service cannot work without them |
| Preferences | Remember interface settings and search filters | Discovery preferences | No, where they only reflect your settings |
| Analytics | Measure aggregate usage, detect errors, improve the product | Anonymous session ID, error reporting | Yes |
| Communications and marketing | Measure the effectiveness of our own campaigns | Campaign parameters in the URL | Yes |
We do not use third-party advertising cookies and we do not sell data to ad networks.
3. Third-party cookies
Some providers may set their own cookies when you use specific features:
- Google — Sign in with Google.
- Stripe — payment processing and checkout fraud prevention.
- Amazon Web Services — photo verification and content delivery.
Those cookies are governed by each provider's privacy policy.
4. How to control them
- In the Service: accept or reject non-essential categories in the cookie banner and change your choice later from Profile → Privacy.
- In your browser: block or delete cookies in Chrome, Safari, Firefox or Edge settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies will sign you out and break Service features.
- On your device: revoke location and notification permissions in your OS settings.
5. Retention
Session cookies are deleted when you close the browser. Persistent cookies last at most twelve (12) months, after which consent is requested again where applicable.
6. Changes
We will update this policy when the technologies we use change, stating the new effective date. Questions: privacidad@matchai.online.
