1. 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, provide a better user experience, and give website owners useful information.

Cookies can be "persistent" (they remain on your device until they expire or are deleted) or "session" cookies (they are deleted when you close your browser).

2. How We Use Cookies

Happy Kite Media uses cookies and similar technologies on our Platform (dashboard.happykitemedia.com) for the following purposes:

  • Authentication: To verify your identity and keep you signed in during your session.
  • Security: To protect against unauthorized access and ensure CSRF protection.
  • Preferences: To remember your language (EN/VI), theme (Dark/Light/iOS), and other display settings.
  • Functionality: To enable core features and services of the Platform.
  • Analytics: To understand how visitors interact with the Platform so we can improve the experience.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the Platform to function. Without them, the Platform cannot operate properly. They cannot be disabled.

Examples:

  • XSRF-TOKEN — CSRF protection token for secure form submissions.
  • laravel_session — Session identifier for authentication.
  • remember_web_* — Persistent login ("Remember Me") functionality.

3.2 Preference Cookies

These cookies remember choices you make to improve your experience on the Platform.

Examples:

  • v2-lang — Your preferred language (English or Vietnamese). Stored for 1 year.
  • v2-theme — Your preferred visual theme (Dark, Light, or iOS). Stored in localStorage.

3.3 Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors use the Platform by collecting anonymous, aggregated data.

Examples:

  • _ga, _ga_* — Google Analytics cookies for tracking page views, sessions, and user behavior. Stored for up to 2 years.

3.4 Local Storage

In addition to cookies, we use browser local storage (which functions similarly) to store certain preferences:

  • v2-theme — Visual theme preference.
  • v2-lang — Language preference.
  • Various tool-specific settings for miniapps (e.g., last-used options, cached form data).

4. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies on our Platform are set by third-party services:

Provider Purpose Privacy Policy
Google Analytics Website usage analysis View
Google Fonts Font delivery View
Cloudflare (CDN) Content delivery, security View

5. Managing Your Cookies

You have several options for managing cookies:

5.1 Browser Settings

Most browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can:

  • View and delete existing cookies.
  • Block all cookies or only third-party cookies.
  • Set your browser to notify you when a cookie is being set.
  • Configure your browser to automatically delete cookies when you close it.

Common browser cookie settings:

5.2 Google Analytics Opt-Out

You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Important: Disabling essential cookies may prevent you from logging in or using core features of the Platform. Preference cookies are required for language and theme settings to work correctly.

When you first visit our Platform, a cookie consent banner will appear asking for your permission to use non-essential cookies (such as analytics). You can:

  • Accept All: Allow all cookies, including analytics cookies.
  • Essential Only: Only allow strictly necessary cookies required for the Platform to function.

You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clearing your browser cookies and revisiting the Platform, which will trigger the consent banner again.

6.1 What Happens With Each Choice

Accept All: Essential cookies + Preference cookies + Analytics cookies (Google Analytics) will be active.

Essential Only: Only authentication, security, and session cookies will be active. Google Analytics will NOT be loaded. Your language and theme preferences will still work via localStorage.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal, regulatory, or operational reasons. We will update the "Last Updated" date at the top when changes are made.
