1. Introduction
This Cookies Policy explains what cookies are, which ones we use on the Canarionet platform, why we use them, and how you can control them. We only place non-essential cookies on your device after obtaining your explicit consent.
2. What are cookies
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device (computer, smartphone, or tablet) when you visit it. They allow the website to recognise your device on future visits and remember certain information such as language preference, session data, or consent choices. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, and tracking pixels, which we refer to collectively as "cookies" in this policy.
3. Types of cookies we use
Essential cookies
Strictly necessary for the platform to function. They enable authentication, security, session management, your language and theme preference, and remembering your cookie choice. These cannot be disabled — without them basic functions would not work.
cookie_consent_preferences (your cookie choice), preferred_locale (language), theme (light or dark), plus authentication and session cookies.
Referral and campaign cookies
Record which link or campaign brought you to the platform, so that referral bonuses can be credited to the person who invited you and we can tell which campaigns work. These are the only non-essential cookies on this platform, and they are set only after you allow them.
referral_code, referral_source and campaign_attribution — up to 90 days, set only with your consent.
4. Your consent and preferences
The first time you visit, we ask one question: whether you allow referral and campaign cookies. You can accept or decline with equal ease, and change your mind at any time via “Cookie settings” in the footer. Essential cookies are always active and cannot be switched off. We do not use analytics, advertising or tracking cookies at all — our web analytics is self-hosted, cookieless, and collects no personal data, so there is nothing further to consent to.
5. Third-party cookies
No third party sets cookies on this platform. Every cookie described here is set by us, on our own domain. Advertising and third-party analytics — including Google Analytics, Google AdSense and Microsoft Clarity — were removed in August 2026 and are no longer used. If you follow a link to an external site, or pay through Stripe, that site's own cookie policy applies once you are there.
6. Cookie retention periods
- • Session and authentication cookies — deleted when you close your browser or sign out.
- • cookie_consent_preferences — retained for up to 12 months to remember your choices.
- • preferred_locale and theme — retained for up to 12 months.
- • Referral and campaign cookies (referral_code, referral_source, campaign_attribution) — up to 90 days, and only if you allowed them.
7. Managing your cookie preferences
You can control and manage cookies in the following ways:
- • Use “Cookie settings” in the footer to allow or decline referral and campaign cookies at any time.
- • Configure your browser to block, delete, or alert you to cookies. Instructions differ by browser; refer to your browser's help documentation.
- • Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality or personalisation features of the platform.
8. Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, regulation, or our practices. When material changes are made, we will notify you through the platform or by email where required. The date of the last update is shown at the top of this page.
