Cookie Policy
Last Updated:
This Cookie Policy explains how Yalla Calculators uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to website owners.
Cookies allow a website to recognize your device and store some information about your preferences or past actions.
Types of Cookies We Use
We use the following types of cookies on our website:
- Essential cookies — Required for the website to function (security, consent storage, basic preferences).
- Analytics cookies — Help us understand how visitors use our site (e.g., Google Analytics).
- Functional cookies — Remember your choices (e.g., theme, language) and improve your experience.
Purpose of Each Cookie Type
Essential
Essential cookies are necessary for the site to work. They enable security (e.g., CSRF), store your cookie consent choices in your browser's local storage, and remember basic preferences like theme. Without these, core features would not function. They cannot be disabled if you want to use the site.
Analytics
Analytics cookies help us see how many people visit, which pages are used most, and how users navigate the site. This information is used to improve our calculators and content. You can turn these off in Cookie Settings below, or in your browser.
Functional
Functional cookies remember choices you make (e.g., light/dark mode, region) so we can offer a more personalized experience. They are not strictly required but improve usability. You can manage them in your browser settings.
