1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, smartphone) when you visit a website. They help websites remember your preferences, enhance user experience, and sometimes collect analytical or behavioral data.
Cookies can be:
First-party cookies – set directly by Glemad
Third-party cookies – set by external services we integrate (limited and disclosed)
2. Types of Cookies We Use
Glemad practices minimal and responsible cookie usage, only where necessary for functionality and performance. We categorize cookies as follows:
| Type | Description | Legal Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly Necessary | Essential for the operation of our services (e.g., login, security, session management). | Legitimate Interest |
| Performance | Help us understand how users interact with our site (e.g., page views, load times). These are anonymized. | Consent (where required) |
| Functional | Remember your preferences (e.g., language, region). | Consent |
| Analytical (Optional) | Allow us to improve features through aggregated usage patterns. We use privacy-focused tools only. | Consent |
| No Advertising or Tracking Cookies | Glemad does not use cookies for third-party advertising, profiling, or cross-site tracking. | Not applicable |
3. How We Collect Consent
Under GDPR, NDPR, and similar regulations, we:
Ask for your explicit consent before setting non-essential cookies.
Provide a cookie banner on your first visit, with the option to accept, reject, or manage cookie preferences.
Allow you to change or withdraw your consent at any time.
In California and other U.S. states, users are given the option to opt out of any “sale” or “sharing” of personal data. While Glemad does not sell or share data, we still honor these preferences.
