AnalyticsWould help us understand how Buddia is used so we can improve it.
MarketingWould let us measure campaigns and show you Buddia ads on other sites.

Today Buddia doesn't use any analytics or marketing cookies. Your choice is saved for the day we add them: nothing optional will load without your yes.

You haven't chosen yet: everything optional is off.

In short

Buddia only uses the cookies it needs to work: keeping you signed in and showing you a message after an action. Analytics and marketing cookies are optional: they only load if you say yes in the notice shown on your first visit, and you can change your mind on this page whenever you like. Right now no analytics or marketing tool is connected, so today nothing optional loads whatever you choose.

Cookies we use

buddia-auth (and buddia-auth-code-verifier while you sign in): your session. Set when you sign in with Google or with the email link. Lasts while your session is open and is removed when you sign out.

buddia_demo_session: identifies your browser in demo mode so that your demo is not mixed with anyone else's. Lasts 30 days.

buddia_flash: remembers for a few seconds the message to show after an action (“Profile saved”). Removed as soon as it's shown.

buddia_admin: session of the team's internal panel. Only set if you sign in to that panel.

buddia_consent: remembers the cookie preferences you choose on this page. Lasts 6 months.

Local storage

Your browser also stores a note saying you've already seen the notice about Traveling / In my city mode, so we don't show it again. It never leaves your device.

Third parties

If you sign in with Google, Google uses its own cookies on its own pages, under its policy. Buddia's fonts are served from our own domain: no request goes to Google when you load a page.

How to delete or block them

You can delete or block cookies in your browser settings. If you block the session cookie you won't be able to sign in.

Changes

When we connect an analytics or marketing tool, we'll list its cookies here (name, provider and duration) and it will only load for people who have accepted that category. Questions: .
