Cookie Policy
The cookies and browser storage used on the HappifyApps website, and how to control them.
Effective date: October 8, 2026
1. What this policy covers
This policy describes the cookies and browser storage used on the HappifyApps public website. Essential storage keeps your privacy choice. Google Analytics is optional and its script is not downloaded until you select “Accept analytics.” Separately, we count page views with Plausible Analytics, which we host ourselves; it sets no cookies and uses no browser storage, so it is not in the table below and runs whether or not you accept analytics. We do not use advertising cookies on this website.
2. Storage inventory
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration | Category |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| happify_cookie_consent | HappifyApps | Remembers whether analytics was accepted or declined. | 1 year | Essential |
| happify-cookie-consent | HappifyApps local storage | Provides the same consent preference when cookie access is restricted. | Until changed or browser storage is cleared | Essential |
| _ga | Google Analytics | Distinguishes visits for aggregate site measurement. | Up to 2 years | Analytics; opt-in only |
| _ga_* | Google Analytics | Maintains session state for aggregate site measurement. | Up to 2 years | Analytics; opt-in only |
3. Change or withdraw consent
Use “Cookie settings” in the footer or the button above at any time. Choosing “Essential only” stops future Google Analytics collection; it does not affect the cookieless Plausible page-view counting, which stores nothing on your device. You may also clear existing cookies in your browser. Withdrawal does not affect processing that occurred before withdrawal.
4. Browser controls and signals
Browsers can block or delete cookies and local storage. Blocking essential storage may cause the consent prompt to reappear, but the website should remain usable. Because optional analytics requires an explicit choice, we apply the preference selected in our own cookie control rather than treating a browser “Do Not Track” signal as a separate instruction.
