Cookie Policy

1. What Cookies and Similar Technologies Are

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser. Similar technologies can include local storage, session storage, SDK-based identifiers, and browser storage used for authentication, preferences, and security.

2. Why We Use Them

• To keep you signed in and maintain secure account sessions.
• To remember basic preferences and product settings.
• To support safety, abuse prevention, and technical integrity.
• To measure site usage and performance in a privacy-aware way.
• To support optional future integrations or product improvements where allowed and appropriate.

3. Categories of Technologies We Use

• Strictly necessary technologies: required for authentication, security, session continuity, and essential platform functions.
• Functional technologies: used to remember preferences or improve convenience where applicable.
• Measurement and analytics technologies: used to understand traffic, performance, and usage patterns.
• Optional technologies: used only if and when we enable them and where the applicable consent and legal basis requirements are met.

4. Current YourFavTeacher Use

At the current stage of the platform, the most important technologies are those needed for secure login, account continuity, cookie consent state, and privacy-aware site performance measurement. If optional categories expand in the future, we may update the cookie settings interface and this policy.

5. Consent and Control

Where required by law, we ask for your choice before activating non-essential cookie categories. You can update your choice later through the cookie settings control available on the site.

Your browser may also allow you to block, clear, or restrict cookies and storage. If you do this, parts of the platform may not function correctly.

6. Authentication and Security Storage

Some cookies or storage mechanisms are necessary to sign you in, maintain your authenticated session, protect account security, and prevent misuse. These technologies are considered essential to core platform operation.

7. Analytics and Performance

We may use privacy-aware traffic and performance measurement to understand how the platform is used, diagnose issues, and improve reliability and user experience. Depending on the specific tool, this may operate with limited or reduced reliance on cookies.

8. Third-Party Technologies

Some technologies may be provided through trusted third-party service providers that help us deliver hosting, analytics, authentication, messaging, support, or billing-related functionality. Their services may place or rely on their own technical identifiers subject to their role and the applicable legal framework.

9. Retention

Different cookies and storage items may remain active for different periods. Some last only for a session, while others remain for a fixed duration so that the site can remember settings or consent choices.

10. How to Manage or Delete Cookies

• Use the cookie settings control on the site to manage platform cookie choices where available.
• Use your browser settings to clear or block cookies and browser storage.
• Be aware that blocking essential technologies may break sign-in or core site functionality.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy when platform technologies, legal requirements, or product features change. We may also update the cookie settings interface where appropriate.
