Cookie policy.
Cookies are small files a site saves on your device, and browser storage does the same job inside an app. Gift Genius uses a few of them to keep you signed in and your lists safe, and asks your permission before anything optional. This page explains each type and how to change your mind.
Essential
Always onThese keep the app working: staying signed in to your own lists, remembering which list you last had open, keeping forms safe, and remembering this cookie choice. They are set automatically because Gift Genius cannot run without them.
Analytics
OptionalAnonymous counts of which pages, gift ideas and features get used, so we can tell what is helpful and what needs fixing. No gift list content, person details or photos are included.
Advertising
OptionalUsed to understand whether a visit to a shop from one of our affiliate links led to a purchase, so partner commissions can be counted correctly. We never sell your lists or the people in them.
Your choice, and changing it
Nothing optional runs until you say yes. When the banner first appears you can accept everything, reject the optional categories, or open settings and switch analytics and advertising on independently. Your answer is saved in this browser only, so it applies to this device and is remembered on your next visit.
You can change your mind whenever you like: use the button below, or the cookie settings link in the footer. Rejecting or withdrawing consent stops the optional cookies and removes the ones already set. Clearing your browser's cookies and site data also resets your choice, and the banner will ask again.
If you are in the EU, UK or another region with equivalent rules, our basis for optional cookies is your consent, which you may withdraw at any time. Visitors in Australia have the same choices, and our handling of personal information follows the Australian Privacy Principles.
