Cookie Policy
Effective date: August 13, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how The F.A.M. Project Inc. (“we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on the FAM Central website (famcentral.com). It supplements our Privacy Policy.
1. What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your browser or device. They help websites work (for example, keeping you signed in), remember preferences, and understand how the site is used. Similar technologies include local storage and software identifiers in mobile apps.
2. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies in three categories. We do not run advertising products, and we do not use advertising or ad-tracking cookies — our analytics configuration explicitly defaults all advertising-related storage to “denied.”
Strictly necessary
Required for the Service to function — you cannot opt out of these without losing core functionality.
| Purpose | Examples | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Authentication & session | __session, __client_uat (Clerk) | Keep you signed in and secure your session |
| Security & infrastructure | Load-balancer and anti-forgery cookies | Route requests reliably and protect against request forgery |
Preferences
Remember choices you make (such as interface preferences) so you don’t have to re-enter them each visit.
Analytics
Help us understand how the Service is used so we can improve it.
| Purpose | Examples | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Google Analytics | _ga, _ga_* | Measures page views and feature usage. Configured with Google Consent Mode v2; all advertising signals (ad_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization) are set to denied |
We also operate a first-party usage-measurement pipeline that records feature interactions (such as which tiles are clicked). It is used only for our own product analytics and is not shared with advertisers.
3. Cookies in the Mobile App
The FAM Central mobile app does not use browser cookies, but it uses similar technologies: software identifiers for product analytics (PostHog) and crash and error reporting (Sentry). These serve the same purposes as the analytics category above.
4. Your Choices
- Browser controls. Most browsers let you block or delete cookies in settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies will prevent sign-in and other core features from working.
- Google Analytics. You can opt out of Google Analytics across websites using Google’s browser add-on at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
- Device controls. Mobile operating systems provide settings to limit app tracking and reset device identifiers.
5. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time, for example if we adopt new tools. We will update the effective date above and, for material changes, provide notice through the Service.
