cookie details
cookies and storage
When you first visit, we ask whether you accept measurement. "Essentials only" keeps the site working and nothing else; "accept all" also turns on visit statistics. You can change your choice at any time with "cookie preferences" at the bottom of every page.

essential (always on)
These are kept in your browser's local or session storage, stay on your device and are needed for the site to work:
- sign-in session (sb-…-auth-token): keeps you signed in.
- cookie choice (aa-izin): remembers what you chose in the cookie banner.
- preferences (aa-tema and similar): theme and motion settings.
- forms and progress (aa-io-girdi, aa-ir-girdi, aa-rp-… and similar): what you typed into forms, including the other person's details in compatibility readings, and where you left off in your reports.
- chat (aa-konusmalar and similar): your report chat conversations, kept only on this device, and your AI consent on this device.
- checkout and gifts (aa-odeme-…, aa-hediye-…): carries your order through the payment step and back.
- tab session (aa-oturum, session storage): a random ID that lives only while the tab is open.
When you sign out, or someone else signs in on this device, these records are moved out of view into a space reserved for your account and come back when you return. Clearing your browser's site data removes them all.
measurement (only if you accept)
- Google Analytics (_ga, _ga_…): cookies that help us understand how the site is used; visit information is sent to Google in the United States, IP addresses are shortened, advertising and personalisation features are off. Kept for up to 2 years.
- Vercel Web Analytics: cookieless visit statistics.
- on-site event records: which page opened and whether a report was started or finished, with the tab session ID, device type and referring site; not linked to your account.
If you choose "essentials only", none of these run and any Google Analytics cookies already set are deleted. We use no advertising cookies.
