Cookie Policy
Last Updated: March 26, 2025
This Cookie Policy explains how Sheet Alchemy (“we,“ “our,“ or “us“) uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website and use our services (collectively, the ”Services”). It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners to make their websites work, enhance user experience, and provide analytical information about their website use and performance.
Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Sheet Alchemy) are called ”first-party cookies.” Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called ”third-party cookies.” Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (such as advertising, interactive content, and analytics).
Why Do We Use Cookies?
We use first-party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons for our Services to operate, and we refer to these as ”essential” or ”necessary” cookies. Other cookies enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Services. Third parties may also serve cookies through our Services for advertising, analytics, and other purposes.
Types of Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for our Services to function properly and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms. These include:
- Authentication cookies: These help us identify you when you log in to our Services so we can provide you with a secure and personalized experience.
- Security cookies: These help us detect and prevent security risks, such as unauthorized login attempts.
- Session cookies: These temporary cookies allow our Services to remember choices you make during a browsing session and provide essential features.
Functional Cookies
These cookies enable us to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. These include:
- Preference cookies: These remember your settings and preferences to personalize your experience.
- Feature cookies: These help our Services remember your selected preferences and choices to enhance functionality.
Analytics Cookies
These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our Services. They help us know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around our Services. These include:
- Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to understand how users interact with our Services. You can learn more about how Google Analytics uses your data at https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
- Performance measurement: These cookies collect information about how you use our Services, such as which pages you visit most often and if you experience any errors.
Targeting/Advertising Cookies
These cookies may be set through our Services by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other sites. These include:
- Social media cookies: These enable you to share our content on social media platforms and may be used for advertising purposes.
- Marketing cookies: These track your browsing habits to deliver advertising relevant to your interests.
AI-Related Cookies and Storage
As our Services include AI-powered features, we may use specialized cookies and local storage to:
- Remember user preferences: Such as preferred AI output formats or previous queries.
- Improve AI performance: By retaining information about how you interact with our AI tools to make them more effective for your specific needs.
- Maintain context: To provide more relevant and consistent AI-generated content during your session.
How Can You Control Cookies?
Cookie Preferences
When you first visit our Services, we will present you with a cookie banner that allows you to accept or decline non-essential cookies. You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clicking on the “Cookie Preferences“ link in the footer of our website.
Browser Controls
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings preferences. However, if you limit the ability of websites to set cookies, you may worsen your overall user experience since it will no longer be personalized to you.
Do Not Track
Some browsers have a “Do Not Track“ feature that signals to websites you visit that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. These features are not yet uniform, so we currently do not respond to such signals.
Other Tracking Technologies
Web Beacons
We may use web beacons (also known as “pixel tags“ or “clear GIFs“) on our Services. These are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of web users or to access cookies.
Local Storage
We may use local storage technologies (such as HTML5 localStorage) to store content information and preferences. These technologies are similar to cookies but can store larger amounts of data and work differently.
Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, regulation, or our business practices. Any changes will become effective when we post the revised policy, and your continued use of our Services following these changes means you accept the revised policy.
