1. What cookies are
Cookies are small files or values stored by a website in a browser or device. Similar technologies include session storage, local storage, pixels, and identifiers used to remember a setting or keep a request secure. They can be temporary or remain until they expire or are deleted.
2. How LinkVy uses them
- Authentication and sessions: to keep a logged-in account signed in and to protect dashboard requests.
- Security: to help detect suspicious activity, protect forms, and prevent misuse.
- Preferences: to remember language or interface choices where the site provides that option.
- Core functionality: to support features that cannot work reliably without short-lived browser state.
LinkVy’s built-in link counters and analytics are designed to use server-side records such as clicks and timestamps. A particular browser may also receive technologies from third parties when you interact with an embedded video, music player, payment gateway, map, social platform, or other external service.
3. Third-party technologies
Third-party providers may set their own cookies or collect information under their own policies when their content or services are loaded. Examples can include payment providers, social embeds, video or music platforms, fonts, security services, and email or media tools. LinkVy does not control the cookie practices of those providers. Review their policies before using their features.
4. Your controls
Most browsers allow you to block, delete, or restrict cookies through privacy settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent login, payments, forms, or other core functions from working. If non-essential cookies are introduced in the future, LinkVy will provide any consent or preference controls required by applicable law before using them.
5. Retention
Session cookies generally expire when a session ends or after a security timeout. Preference and other cookies may remain until their stated expiry or until you delete them. Server-side records are handled according to the Privacy Policy and may be retained for service operation, security, analytics, payment, or legal reasons.
6. Updates
We may update this Cookie Policy when LinkVy adds a new feature, provider, or technology. The updated version will be posted on this page with a new date. Questions can be sent to support@linkvy.xyz.
