1. What are cookies

Cookies are small text files saved in your browser when you visit a website. They help remember your preferences and ensure the service works correctly.

2. Technical cookies (strictly necessary)

Reefix uses only technical cookies necessary for the service: • Firebase authentication token (login session) • Google Identity / accounts.google.com (only for users logging in via Google) • Language and current view preferences (sessionStorage/localStorage) • Diagnostic voting state reefix_qfb_* (localStorage, to prevent anonymous duplicate votes) • Google reCAPTCHA v3 (invisible anti-bot — no profiling, necessary for service security) These cookies do not require consent as they are strictly necessary for the requested service.

3. Third-party cookies and Monitoring Tools

Reefix uses the following third-party services that install cookies in your browser: • GOOGLE ANALYTICS 4: Global statistical monitoring tool. Implemented with "Consent Mode V2" (GDPR Compliant) tech, it blocks profiled tracking without explicit consent, sending only anonymous pings. • STRIPE: When paying by card, the Stripe SDK sets technical cookies (__stripe_mid, __stripe_sid) necessary for fraud prevention, security, and payment session management. These are essential for payments. • PAYPAL: When checking out, the PayPal SDK sets technical cookies (necessary for fraud prevention, security, and payment session). These are essential for payments. • GOOGLE SEARCH CONSOLE: Server-side search efficiency tool. • OTHERS: Firebase (Auth) systems are subject to Google's privacy policy. NOTE: Reefix AI systems operate entirely server-side and DO NOT install any cookies in your browser. Affiliate links (eBay/Amazon) are outbound: cookies will only be installed after you leave our site and reach their platforms, under their own policies.
