Cookie Policy
Last updated: 9 February 2025
1. What are cookies
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, provide a better user experience, and give information to site owners.
This policy explains what cookies MiniMoods uses, why we use them, and how you can manage your preferences.
2. How we use cookies
We categorise our cookies as follows:
Essential cookies (always active)
These cookies are strictly necessary for the Service to function. They cannot be switched off as the Service would not work without them.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| sb-access-token | Supabase authentication session token | 1 hour |
| sb-refresh-token | Supabase session refresh token | 7 days |
| cookie_consent | Stores your cookie consent preferences | 1 year |
Functional cookies
These cookies allow us to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, more personalised features.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| user_preferences | Stores user interface preferences such as theme settings | 1 year |
Analytics cookies (not currently in use)
We do not currently use any analytics cookies. If we introduce analytics in the future, we will update this policy and request your consent before setting any analytics cookies. Analytics cookies will always be optional and require your explicit consent.
3. Third-party cookies
Our service uses the following third-party providers who may set cookies:
- Supabase: Provides our authentication system. The authentication cookies listed above (sb-access-token, sb-refresh-token) are set by Supabase to manage your secure login session.
- Vercel: Hosts our application. Vercel may set technical cookies necessary for content delivery and performance optimisation.
4. Your choices
You can manage cookies in several ways:
Our cookie consent tool
When you first visit MiniMoods, you will see a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept or manage your cookie preferences. You can change your preferences at any time through the app settings.
Browser settings
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can usually find these in the "Options" or "Preferences" menu of your browser. The following links may help:
- Chrome: Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies
- Firefox: Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies
- Safari: Preferences > Privacy
- Edge: Settings > Cookies and site permissions
5. PECR compliance
This cookie policy complies with the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR) as amended. Under PECR:
- We use strictly necessary cookies without requiring consent, as they are essential for the Service to function.
- We will obtain your informed consent before setting any non-essential cookies.
- We provide clear and comprehensive information about all cookies we use.
- We make it easy for you to withdraw your consent at any time.
6. Impact of disabling cookies
If you choose to disable cookies, please be aware that:
- Essential cookies: Disabling these will prevent you from signing in and using MiniMoods. The Service requires authentication cookies to function.
- Functional cookies: Disabling these means your preferences may not be remembered between visits.
7. Changes to this policy
We may update this cookie policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page indicates when the policy was last revised. If we make significant changes, we will notify you through the app or by updating the cookie consent banner.
