Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files a site stores in your browser. They let the site remember things between page loads — that you are signed in, for example — and help us understand how the service is used.

We also use similar technologies such as local storage and pixels. Where this policy says 'cookies', it means all of them.

These keep you signed in, remember your consent choices, balance traffic across our servers, and protect against cross-site request forgery.

The service cannot work without them, so they cannot be switched off from our cookie settings. Blocking them in your browser will break sign-in.

These remember choices you make — your language, your browse filters, and whether you have dismissed a particular prompt — so you do not have to set them again on every visit.

These tell us which pages are visited, how long sessions last, and where people drop out of the signup flow, so we can fix the parts that do not work well.

The data is aggregated. We use it to understand patterns across all members, not to build a profile of you individually.

If you opt in, these let us measure which campaigns bring new members, and avoid showing you ads for a service you have already joined. They may be set by our advertising partners.

You can change your consent at any time from the cookie settings link in the footer, and you can clear or block cookies in your browser settings.

Blocking non-essential cookies will not stop you using HeartMatch, though some preferences will not persist between visits.

Some cookies are set by the providers we use for payments, error monitoring and analytics. Those providers act on our instructions and are bound to use the data only to provide the service to us.
