Cookie Policy

Last updated: July 10, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how MyImpactAdviser uses them, and what choices you have. We keep this straightforward because our cookie usage is minimal.

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device when you visit them. They are widely used to make websites work, keep you signed in, and remember your preferences. Some cookies are strictly necessary for the site to function, while others are used for analytics, advertising, or personalization.

2. Cookies We Use

MyImpactAdviser uses only essential cookies required for the site to function. We do not use advertising cookies, analytics tracking cookies, or personalization cookies.

Authentication Cookies

Our authentication provider, Clerk, sets cookies to manage your login session. These cookies are what keep you signed in as you navigate the site and allow us to identify your account when you make requests. Without these cookies, you would need to sign in on every page.

Session Cookies

We use session cookies to maintain your application state while you are using the service — for example, keeping track of your current analysis session. These are temporary and are cleared when you close your browser or when your session expires.

Security Cookies

Certain cookies help protect against cross-site request forgery (CSRF) and other security threats. These are essential for the safe operation of the site.

3. What We Don't Use

We want to be clear about what we do not do:

  • No advertising cookies. We do not serve ads and do not use cookies to track you for advertising purposes.
  • No analytics tracking cookies. We do not use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or similar third-party tracking tools.
  • No cross-site tracking. We do not track your activity across other websites.
  • No cookie-based personalization. We do not use cookies to build behavioral profiles or serve personalized content beyond your authenticated session.

4. Third-Party Cookies

The only third-party cookies on our site come from Clerk, our authentication provider. Clerk sets cookies necessary for secure sign-in and session management. Clerk's cookie practices are governed by their own Privacy Policy.

5. Managing Cookies

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically find these options in your browser's “Settings,” “Preferences,” or “Privacy” menus. Common options include:

  • Viewing which cookies are currently stored on your device.
  • Deleting some or all cookies.
  • Blocking all cookies or only third-party cookies.
  • Setting your browser to notify you when a cookie is being set.

Please note that if you block or delete essential cookies, you may not be able to sign in or use the Service. Since we only use essential cookies, blocking them will effectively prevent you from using MyImpactAdviser.

6. Changes to This Policy

If we begin using any non-essential cookies in the future (such as analytics), we will update this Cookie Policy and notify you before doing so. You would be given the choice to opt in or opt out of non-essential cookies at that time.

7. Contact

If you have questions about our use of cookies, please contact us at [email protected].

These policies are provided for informational purposes. We recommend consulting with a legal professional to ensure compliance with applicable laws.
