SHIPP COOKIE POLICY

Welcome to Shipp! When you use Shipp (mobile application and website), we use cookies and similar technologies (SDKs, pixels, etc.) to provide you with the best experience, ensure your security, and personalize our services. This policy explains what these technologies are, why we use them, and how you can control them.

1. What is a Cookie?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet) when you visit a website or use an application. These files allow Shipp to remember you, save your preferences, and make the application more efficient for you.

2. Why Do We Use Cookies?

Like other online services, Shipp uses cookies for the following primary purposes:

  • To Recognize You: We keep you logged in so you don't have to re-enter your credentials every time you access the app.
  • Astrological Experience: We analyze your movements to provide the most accurate matches compatible with your birth chart and preferences.
  • Security: We use these technologies to detect fake accounts, prevent fraud, and ensure compliance with our community guidelines.
  • Performance: We collect data to understand which parts of the application are most liked and to quickly resolve technical errors.
  • Advertising and Marketing: Used to show you campaigns and content that may interest you and to measure the efficiency of advertisements.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

Shipp uses both cookies placed by us (first-party) and cookies placed by our business partners (third-party).

A. Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for our application to perform its basic functions.

  • Example: Secure login, fraud detection, and completion of purchase transactions. These cookies cannot be turned off.

B. Functionality and Preference Cookies

Used to provide you with a more personalized experience.

  • Example: Your language preference, night/day mode settings, or astrological notification preferences.

C. Analytics and Performance Cookies

Help us understand how users interact with Shipp.

  • Example: How much time is spent on which page, app crash reports, and analysis of popular horoscope comments. Tools like Google Analytics or AppsFlyer may be used.

D. Advertising and Targeting Cookies

Used to deliver advertisements tailored to your interests.

  • Example: Allows you to see Shipp Premium membership campaigns or third-party events that may interest you. These cookies can also track your movements across different websites.

4. Similar Technologies (SDKs and Device Identifiers)

In our mobile application, we typically use SDKs (Software Development Kits) and Device Identifiers (IDFA for iOS, AAID for Android) instead of cookies. These technologies allow us to measure your in-app activity and send you personalized notifications.

5. How Can You Control Cookies?

The control is entirely yours! You can manage your Shipp experience through the following ways:

  • In-App Settings: You can update your preferences from the "Settings > Privacy > Cookie Management" tab within the Shipp application.
  • Device Settings: You can use the "Limit Ad Tracking" option from the privacy settings of your iOS or Android device.
  • Browser Settings: If you are visiting our website, you can completely block or delete cookies from your browser settings (Chrome, Safari, Firefox).

Note: Please remember that if you block strictly necessary cookies, some features of Shipp, such as messaging or matching, may not function correctly.

6. Data Transfer and Third Parties

As we are an Estonia-based company (Faryelx OÜ), your data is processed in accordance with GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) and KVKK (Law on the Protection of Personal Data) standards. Information collected through cookies may be shared with our trusted business partners (Amazon Web Services, Google, Meta, etc.) for analysis and advertising purposes.
