Cookie Policy

1 What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your browser or device when you visit. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide basic analytics about how a site is being used.

Cookies may be "session cookies" that expire when you close your browser, or "persistent cookies" that remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. They may be set by FindHarmony.ai directly ("first-party cookies") or by third-party services we use to operate the platform ("third-party cookies").

2 How We Use Cookies

FindHarmony.ai uses cookies to:

Keep you securely signed in to your account across page loads and sessions
Remember your preferences and platform settings
Protect the platform against fraudulent or unauthorized activity
Understand how visitors navigate FindHarmony.ai so we can improve the experience
Measure the performance of key pages and features
Store your cookie consent preferences so we honor your choices

        We do not use cookies for advertising. FindHarmony.ai does not use advertising cookies, retargeting pixels, or tracking technologies that profile you for ad delivery on other websites.
      

3 Types of Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary for the platform to function. They enable core features like account authentication, session management, security, and storing your consent preferences. The platform cannot operate correctly without them, and they cannot be disabled through our consent mechanism.

Functional Cookies

These cookies remember choices you make to improve your experience, such as your notification preferences, language settings, locale, or which sections of your dashboard you have expanded. They are not strictly necessary but make the platform easier to use. You can opt out of functional cookies at any time through our cookie consent mechanism.

Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with FindHarmony.ai by collecting aggregated, anonymized data about page views, session duration, and feature usage. This information helps us improve the platform over time. We use analytics tools that process this data without tying it to individual identifiable users. You can opt out of analytics cookies at any time. Please note that under California privacy law (CPRA), sharing data with analytics providers may constitute a "sale" or "sharing" of personal information, and you have the right to opt out as described in our Privacy Policy.

5 Third-Party Cookies

Some features of the FindHarmony.ai platform are powered by third-party services that may set their own cookies. These services are carefully selected and are used solely to operate the platform, not for advertising purposes.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to collect anonymized usage data about how visitors navigate the platform. Google Analytics sets cookies (_ga, _gid, _gat) to distinguish unique users and sessions. No personally identifiable information is shared with Google Analytics. You can opt out of Google Analytics data collection through your browser settings or our cookie consent preferences.

Payment Processing

Our payment processor (Stripe) may set cookies to enable secure payment transactions. These cookies are used solely for payment processing and are governed by Stripe's own privacy and cookie policy.

Security Services

We use a security provider to protect the platform against bots and malicious traffic. This provider may set cookies as part of its fraud detection and bot prevention mechanisms.

No advertising networks. FindHarmony.ai does not integrate with advertising networks, social media pixels, or retargeting services. No third-party advertising cookies are set on our platform.

6 Cookie Consent Mechanism

How the Consent Banner Works

FindHarmony.ai displays a cookie consent banner on your first visit. The banner provides transparent control over your cookie preferences:

Accept All: Consent to all non-essential cookies (Functional and Analytics). Essential cookies are always active regardless of your choice.
Customize Preferences: Open the preferences modal to toggle Functional and Analytics cookies individually. Essential cookies are always enabled and cannot be disabled.
Reject Non-Essential: Decline non-essential cookies and set only essential cookies for secure operation of the platform.

Preference Storage and Persistence

Your cookie consent preference is stored in a first-party cookie named fh_cookie_consent with a 13-month expiration. This allows us to remember your choice across visits and not re-prompt you unless the cookie expires or you manually clear your browser data.

Changing Your Preferences Anytime

You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the "Cookie Preferences" or "Manage Cookies" link in the website footer. This will open the consent preferences modal, allowing you to update your choices without re-visiting the banner.

Behavior on Non-Essential Cookie Rejection

If you reject non-essential cookies:

Google Analytics (and other analytics services) will not load
Functional cookies (such as locale, preferences, search history) will not be set
Only essential cookies required for secure authentication and platform operation will be active
The FindHarmony.ai platform will continue to function normally

        Essential cookies always active. Essential cookies cannot be disabled because they are required for the platform to function securely. These include session management, authentication, CSRF protection, and consent preference storage.
      

7 Managing Your Preferences

You have multiple ways to control cookies on FindHarmony.ai:

Through Our Cookie Consent Mechanism

The easiest way to manage your cookie preferences is through the consent mechanism on FindHarmony.ai itself. You can click the "Cookie Preferences" or "Manage Cookies" link in the website footer at any time to open the preferences modal and adjust your settings.

Through Your Browser Settings

8 Global Privacy Control (GPC)

FindHarmony.ai honors the Global Privacy Control (GPC) browser signal as required by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) and similar privacy regulations.

What Is Global Privacy Control?

Global Privacy Control is a browser setting that signals to websites that you prefer not to have your personal information sold or shared with third parties. Major browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge support GPC.

How We Respond to GPC

When we detect that Global Privacy Control is enabled on your browser:

FindHarmony.ai automatically treats your visit as an opt-out of non-essential cookies
We will not load analytics cookies or share data with analytics providers
Functional cookies may not be set, depending on your browser settings
Only essential cookies required for secure platform operation are set
We do not display the cookie consent banner if GPC is detected

GPC is respected automatically. You do not need to take any action. If you have GPC enabled in your browser, FindHarmony.ai will honor it. To learn how to enable GPC in your browser, visit globalprivacycontrol.org.

9 CCPA/CPRA Rights
