Cookie Policy — AdHub

Effective date: January 14, 2026

This policy explains which cookies and similar technologies we use on AdHub.plus, why we use them, and how you can manage them. The policy complements our Privacy Policy and contains technical details on cookie usage across the platform.

1. What are cookies

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device via your browser. They help the site remember your actions and preferences (for example, signing in, language, display settings) during a session and across subsequent visits.

2. Which cookies we use and why

• Functional and essential cookies:

  These cookies are required for the platform to operate: session support (session cookie), form security (CSRF token associated with the session/meta tags), and proper functioning of authentication. Without these cookies you cannot sign in or use the core features of the service.

• Authentication (remember-me):

  If you choose the “Remember me” option at sign-in, AdHub uses a cookie to maintain your persistent sign-in. These cookies allow restoring a session between visits.

• Analytics cookies:

  We use Google Analytics (gtag.js) to collect aggregated site visit data (e.g., pageviews, traffic source, general engagement metrics). These cookies help us improve the product and monitor the interface. Data in Google Analytics is collected in aggregate and is not intended for individual user identification.

• Third-party cookies:

  Some third-party services integrated into the platform (for example, Cloudinary for media uploads, payment providers) may set their own cookies when you interact with their services. Those cookies are controlled by the third parties; their purposes and retention periods are described in those providers' policies.

3. Retention periods

• Session cookies: removed after closing the browser (or when the session ends).
• Functional/authentication cookies (for example, remember-me): retention depends on configuration and may persist between sessions until you log out or the cookie expires.
• Analytics cookies (Google Analytics): retention is determined by Google settings and can range from several hours to up to 2 years for various identifiers/data.
• Third-party cookies: retention is controlled by the respective third parties (Cloudinary, payment providers, etc.).

4. Consequences of blocking cookies

If you block cookies in your browser or disable certain types of cookies, some AdHub functionality may not work properly. In particular:

• You may be unable to sign in or remain signed in between sessions (if essential/authentication cookies are blocked).
• Certain forms or operations may fail validation (CSRF protection relies on tokens/sessions).
• We will stop receiving aggregated information about service usage (if analytics cookies are disabled), which will make it harder for us to improve the product.

5. How to manage and disable cookies

You can manage cookies and block them using your browser settings or privacy extensions. Below are general pointers for popular browsers:

• Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
• Mozilla Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
• Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Block all cookies
• Microsoft Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions

You may also install browser extensions to block trackers and analytics (for example, uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger) or use Do Not Track modes. Note that such settings may affect site behavior and features.

6. Managing analytics

Google Analytics is loaded via gtag.js in the application layout. If you want to stop data being sent to Google Analytics, you can:

• Block Google Tag Manager / gtag scripts in your browser or with extensions;
• Disable cookies for Google domains in your browser settings;
• Use global consent tools (if available) or follow Google's documentation for opting out of analytics.

7. Legal basis

Basis for processing: processing related to platform operation (authentication, sessions, security) is necessary for performance of the service contract and for AdHub's legitimate interests (service protection). Processing for analytics is performed on the basis of our legitimate interests in improving the service — if you object to such processing you may disable analytics cookies in your browser.

8. Policy updates

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected in the app and the policy page; the effective date at the top will be updated.

9. Contact
