Cookie Policy

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit them. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide reporting information about how the site is used. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, pixels, and similar tracking mechanisms — for simplicity, we refer to all of these as "cookies" throughout this policy.

2. How We Use Cookies

Best Practicify uses cookies for four purposes: to make the Site function correctly (Essential), to understand how the Site is used in aggregate (Analytics), to support functional features like the chat widget (Preferences), and to measure marketing effectiveness when applicable (Marketing).

On your first visit you are presented with a cookie banner that allows you to accept all cookies, reject all non-essential cookies, or customize your preferences by category. Your choice is stored locally in your browser and persists across visits until you change it or until the cookie policy is updated. You can change your preferences at any time using the "Cookie Preferences" link in the Site footer.

3. Cookie Categories

3.1 Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the Site to function and cannot be disabled. They are typically set in response to actions you take such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms.

3.2 Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the Site, such as which pages are visited most, how long visitors stay, and how visitors navigate through the Site. Data is aggregated and is not used to identify individuals.

3.3 Marketing Cookies

Marketing cookies are used to measure the effectiveness of marketing campaigns and may be used to deliver targeted content on third-party platforms. Best Practicify does not currently use marketing cookies. This category is reserved for future use and you will be re-prompted for consent before any marketing cookies are activated.

3.4 Preference Cookies

Preference cookies enable functional features and remember your choices to provide a better experience.

4. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies on the Site are placed by third-party services we integrate. These third parties have their own privacy policies governing how they use information. The third parties whose cookies may be set on the Site include Google, Vercel, Supabase, and Chatbase. We do not control these third parties' cookie practices; please review their privacy policies for details.

5. How to Manage Cookies

You have several ways to manage cookies set by the Site and other sites you visit:

• Our preferences center. Use the cookie preferences center at any time to update your category preferences.
• Browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, manage, delete, and block cookies. See the help section of your browser (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge) for details.
• Opt-out tools. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing Google's official opt-out browser add-on at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Note that blocking essential cookies will prevent parts of the Site from working correctly.

6. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time as our cookie use changes or as legal requirements evolve. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date and re-prompt you for consent through the cookie banner.
