Cookie Policy

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer, smartphone, or tablet when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognize your device, remember your preferences (such as light/dark theme or session login), and improve your browsing experience.

In addition to cookies, we may also utilize modern browser storage technologies such as localStorage and sessionStorage to store client-side preferences without transmitting sensitive data over the network.

2. How EmtyBrain Uses Cookies

We use cookies and browser storage for four primary purposes:

• Strictly Necessary Cookies: Essential for core website operations, such as secure user authentication, maintaining your active session via Supabase Auth, and protecting against Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF).
• Preferences & Functionality: Used to remember your selected display settings (e.g., light theme preferences), your muted/volume state on background audio players, and recently bookmarked or saved prompts.
• Performance & Analytics: Anonymous, aggregated measurement of how visitors discover and navigate our prompt catalogs, which categories are trending, and overall page load performance.
• Advertising & Targeting (Google AdSense): Third-party advertising partners like Google use cookies (including the DoubleClick DART cookie) to deliver relevant advertisements based on your visit to EmtyBrain and other websites across the internet.
