1. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Cookies are small text files placed in your browser. VibeGuide also uses your browser's localStorage.

This policy covers all browser-based storage mechanisms used by the Service.

Strictly Necessary: Required for core functionality. No consent needed.

• vg.session.id (localStorage): Anonymous session identifier. Groups events within a session.

• vg.app.lang (localStorage): Your TR/EN language preference.

• vg.refine.session.v1, vg.reveal.results.v1 (localStorage): Refine flow state and results — preserved across page reloads.

• vg.reveal.likes.v1, vg.reveal.dismissed.v1 (localStorage): Your liked and dismissed cards.

• vg.cookie.analytics (localStorage): Your analytics consent state.

Analytics (Consent-Based): Active only after explicit consent.

• Interaction events (search_submitted, reveal_viewed, result_clicked, etc.) — sent to our servers with anonymous session_id.

Third-party cookies: When you click an affiliate partner link, the partner site may set its own cookies governed by their respective policies.

Manage analytics consent via the cookie banner at the bottom of the page.

Clear all local data through your browser settings (Chrome: Settings → Privacy → Clear site data).

Rejecting analytics does not block the core usage of the Service.

localStorage items persist until you clear them or your browser data. Practical lifetime is the session for most items.
