1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, improve performance, and provide information to the website owner. Cookies can be "session cookies" that expire when you close your browser, or "persistent cookies" that remain on your device for a set period of time.
2. How We Use Cookies
LinkFilo uses cookies and similar technologies (such as localStorage) for the following purposes:
These cookies are necessary for the Service to function. They include authentication cookies that keep you logged in and session management cookies. You cannot opt out of these.
These cookies remember your preferences and settings, such as your chosen avatar color and whether you have dismissed certain notifications.
We use local browser storage to track whether you have already viewed a shared file, to prevent inflating view counts on page reloads. No personal data is sent to third-party analytics services.
3. Third-Party Cookies
We use the following third-party services which may set their own cookies:
- Supabase — our database and authentication provider. Supabase uses cookies to maintain your login session. You can review their privacy policy at supabase.com.
- Vercel — our hosting provider. Vercel may use cookies for performance and security purposes.
4. Managing Cookies
You can control cookies through our cookie consent banner when you first visit LinkFilo. You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. Please note that disabling essential cookies will prevent you from logging in and using the full Service.

- Delete all cookies when you close your browser
5. localStorage
In addition to cookies, we use browser localStorage to store small pieces of data on your device. This includes your avatar color preference and file view tracking to prevent duplicate view counts. This data never leaves your device and is not transmitted to our servers.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated date. Your continued use of LinkFilo after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
