Cookie Policy
Last Updated: February 2025
At orivamystara, we believe you deserve transparency about how we collect information when you visit orivamystara.com. This policy explains what tracking technologies we use, why we need them, and how you can manage your preferences.
We're not here to hide behind legal jargon. Think of cookies as little helpers that remember your preferences and make your visit smoother. Some are essential for basic functionality, while others help us understand how people use our budget categorization tools.
What Are Cookies Anyway?
Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device. They're not programs and can't carry viruses. When you visit orivamystara.com, these files help us recognize your browser and remember certain information about your visit.
Most websites you visit today use cookies in some form. They've become a standard part of how the web works, especially for sites that offer personalized experiences or require you to log in.
Types of Tracking We Use
Essential Cookies
These keep the site functioning properly. Without them, you wouldn't be able to navigate between pages or access secure areas. They're necessary for basic operation.
Functional Cookies
These remember your preferences like display settings or budget categories you've created. They make your experience more personalized without tracking your browsing elsewhere.
Analytics Cookies
We use these to understand how visitors interact with our financial tools. They tell us which features get used most and where people might be having trouble.
Performance Cookies
These help us identify technical issues and improve loading times. They collect information about how quickly pages load and whether users encounter errors.
How We Actually Use This Information
When someone visits orivamystara.com and starts using our budget categorization features, cookies help us provide a consistent experience. If you create spending categories or set budget limits, functional cookies remember those choices so you don't have to recreate them every time you return.
Analytics cookies show us patterns. For example, if lots of people are abandoning the site on a particular page, that tells us something might be confusing or broken. We can then fix it.
- Maintaining your login session when you access your account
- Remembering budget categories you've customized
- Understanding which financial planning features get used most
- Identifying technical issues that affect user experience
- Measuring how long it takes pages to load on different devices
- Testing new features with small groups before full release
You're In Control
You can adjust cookie settings through your browser at any time. Keep in mind that blocking certain cookies might affect how the site works. Essential cookies are needed for basic functionality, but you can disable analytics and performance tracking if you prefer.
Most browsers accept cookies automatically, but you can modify settings to decline cookies or alert you when a site is attempting to place one on your device.
What Gets Stored
| Cookie Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Session ID | Keeps you logged in while navigating the site | Until you close your browser |
| Preference Settings | Remembers your budget category customizations | 12 months |
| Analytics Tracking | Measures site usage and feature interaction | 24 months |

Managing Cookies in Your Browser
Each browser handles cookie settings differently. Here's where to find these controls in common browsers:
Go to Settings, then Privacy and Security, then Cookies and other site data. You can block all cookies, allow only certain sites, or delete cookies after each session.
Open Settings, select Privacy & Security from the left menu. Under Enhanced Tracking Protection, you can choose Standard, Strict, or Custom settings.
Click Safari menu, then Preferences, then Privacy tab. You can block all cookies or only third-party cookies, and manage website data.
Select Settings, then Cookies and site permissions, then Cookies and site data. Choose whether to allow, block, or delete cookies.
Data Retention and Your Rights
We don't keep cookie data forever. Different types have different retention periods based on their purpose. Session cookies disappear when you close your browser. Preference cookies might last up to a year so your settings persist between visits.
Analytics data gets aggregated and anonymized after collection. We're looking at patterns and trends, not tracking individual users across the internet. After the retention period ends, cookie data gets automatically deleted from our systems.
If you'd like us to delete cookie data associated with your visits, you can request this by contacting our support team. We'll process your request within a reasonable timeframe, typically within 30 days.
Third-Party Services
We use some external services that may place their own cookies. For example, analytics platforms help us understand site traffic patterns. These third parties have their own privacy policies and cookie practices.
We carefully select service providers who align with our privacy standards. However, we don't control how they use cookies on their own domains. If you follow a link away from orivamystara.com, different cookie policies will apply.
Updates to This Policy
Technology changes. Sometimes we add new features that require different tracking methods, or we find better ways to protect your privacy. When we update this policy, we'll change the date at the top and, if the changes are significant, we'll notify active users.
We recommend checking back occasionally, especially if you have concerns about how websites handle your data. We'll always aim to be straightforward about what information we collect and why.
Questions About Our Cookie Use?
If something in this policy isn't clear, or if you have specific concerns about how we use tracking technologies, our team is here to help.
