Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website or use an application. They are widely used to make services work, or work more efficiently, and to provide information to the operators of the service. My Macro Coach uses only a small number of cookies, and they are strictly functional — we do not use cookies for advertising, behavioral tracking, or third-party marketing.
We use cookies for two essential purposes: to keep you signed in to your account, and to manage access to a single free recommendation per day for visitors who are not signed in. We do not use cookies to build advertising profiles, track you across other websites, or sell or share your data for marketing.
| Cookie | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
auth_token |
Strictly necessary (functional) | Keeps you securely signed in to your account and maintains your authenticated session. Set as HttpOnly, Secure, and SameSite=Lax for security. | Persists to keep you logged in; cleared when you log out or it expires. |
free_rec_used |
Functional | For visitors who are not signed in, records that a free recommendation has been used for the current day, so the daily free limit can be applied. Set as HttpOnly, Secure, and SameSite=Lax. | Up to 24 hours. |
Because these cookies are strictly necessary or functional to operate core features of the Services (signing in and managing the free daily recommendation), the Services may not work properly if they are blocked.
The Services use the Google Maps Platform to display location-based meal recommendations. When map features load, Google may set its own cookies or similar technologies on your device in order to provide and secure those features. These are governed by Google's own privacy and cookie practices, which you can review at https://policies.google.com/technologies/cookies.
We do not use Google Analytics, advertising cookies, social media cookies, web beacons, tracking pixels, or other behavioral-tracking technologies.
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings, including blocking or deleting them. To do so, refer to your browser's help section. Please note that because the cookies we use are strictly necessary or functional, blocking them may prevent you from signing in or using core features of the Services.
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Any changes take effect when the revised policy is posted, as reflected by the "Last updated" date above. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
