Cookies Policy

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember your actions and preferences over time, so you do not have to re-enter them on every visit. Flusk uses cookies and similar technologies (such as local storage) to keep our service secure, functional, and easy to use.

2. Types of Cookies We Use

We group the cookies and technologies used by Flusk into two categories:

• Essential Cookies — required for the core functionality of the Flusk platform. These keep you logged in, remember your order session, and protect against misuse. Essential cookies cannot be disabled, as the service would not work properly without them.
• Non-Essential Cookies — used for analytics, remembering preferences, and improving the experience. These are optional; you may accept or reject them through our consent banner on your first visit.

3. Specific Cookies and Their Purpose

Below is a summary of the cookies and local storage entries Flusk may use:

• Authentication / Session — stores your login token so you stay signed in securely between pages and visits.
• Cookie Consent — records whether you accepted or rejected non-essential cookies, so we do not ask you again on every visit (stored locally as 'flusk_cookie_consent').
• User Preferences — remembers choices such as your preferred drink, modifiers, and selected avatar so the app feels personalized when you return.
• Analytics — aggregated, anonymized usage data that helps us understand which features are valued and where to improve. No personally identifying data is shared with third-party analytics providers.

4. How Long Cookies Stay on Your Device

Essential session cookies are removed when you close your browser. Preference and consent entries are stored in your browser's local storage and persist between visits until you clear your browser data or we update our systems.

5. Managing and Deleting Cookies

You can control or delete cookies and local storage at any time through your browser settings. Most browsers let you block cookies, delete existing ones, or ask for confirmation before storing new ones. Note that disabling essential cookies will prevent you from logging in and placing orders on Flusk.

• Chrome — Settings > Privacy and security > Cookies and other site data.
• Safari — Preferences > Privacy > Cookies and website data.
• Firefox — Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data.
• Edge — Settings > Cookies and site permissions.

Clearing your browser data will also reset your cookie consent choice, and our banner will appear again on your next visit.

6. Third-Party Services

When you make a payment, our payment processor PayMongo may set its own cookies as part of the secure checkout flow. PayMongo's use of cookies is governed by its own privacy and cookie policies, which we encourage you to review. Flusk does not control third-party cookies set during external payment processing.

7. Updates to This Policy

As Flusk grows and adopts new tools, the cookies we use may change. We will update this Cookies Policy whenever we introduce new non-essential cookies and will reflect the most current version in the effective date shown above.
