Cookie Policy
19 September 2025
This Cookie Policy explains how Flirty Fingers (“we,” “us,” “our”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit flirtyfingers.com (the “Site”). This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow a site to recognize your device, remember your preferences, and collect information about how you use the site. We also use similar technologies such as local storage, pixels, and tags, and this policy covers those as well (collectively, “cookies”).
2. Why We Use Cookies
We use cookies to:
- Keep you logged in and remember your session while you browse the Site;
- Remember your preferences (such as display settings or previously viewed content categories);
- Understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve our content, Q&A community, and overall experience;
- Maintain the security of your account and the Platform; and
- Support social sharing features that let you share blog posts and community content.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
| Category | Purpose | Can you disable it? |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly Necessary | Required for core functionality — logging in, maintaining your session, remembering your cookie consent choices, and securing the Platform against fraud and abuse. | No — the Site may not function properly without these. |
| Functional | Remember preferences such as display settings, previously read articles, or dismissed notices, to personalize your experience. | Yes, via cookie settings/browser controls, though some personalization features may stop working. |
| Analytics / Performance | Help us understand how visitors interact with the Site (e.g., pages visited, time spent, referral source) so we can improve content and community features. May be provided by third-party analytics services. | Yes, via cookie settings/browser controls. |
| Social Media / Sharing | Enable “share” buttons and embedded content from third-party platforms, and may allow those third parties to set their own cookies. | Yes, via cookie settings/browser controls, though sharing features may stop working. |
4. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are placed by third parties that provide services on our behalf, such as website hosting, analytics, security, and email delivery (as referenced in our Privacy Policy). These third parties may use cookies to collect information about your use of the Site and other sites over time. We do not control these third-party cookies, and their use is governed by the respective third party’s own privacy and cookie policies.
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not knowingly permit third parties to use cookies on our Site for cross-context behavioral advertising without appropriate consent where required by applicable law.
5. How Long Do Cookies Last?
- Session cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period (or until you delete them) so the Site can remember your preferences or login state across visits.
Specific durations vary by cookie and provider; where required by applicable law, this information will be made available through our cookie consent/preferences tool.
6. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You have several options for managing cookies:
- Cookie Consent Banner/Preferences Center: Where available on the Site, you can adjust which non-essential cookie categories you allow at any time via our cookie preferences tool.
- Browser Settings: Most browsers let you view, delete, and block cookies through their settings menu. Refer to your browser’s help documentation for instructions (commonly found under Settings > Privacy/Security > Cookies).
- Opt-Out Tools: For analytics or advertising cookies from specific third-party providers, you may be able to opt out directly through that provider’s own opt-out mechanism.
Please note that blocking or deleting cookies, including strictly necessary cookies, may affect the availability and functionality of certain features, such as staying logged in or posting to the community.
7. Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (DNT) signal. Because there is currently no common industry standard for how to respond to DNT signals, our Site does not currently respond differently based on DNT browser settings.
8. Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies and technologies we use, or for legal, operational, or regulatory reasons. We will update the “Last Updated” date above when we make changes, and where required by law, we will provide additional notice or seek renewed consent.
