What cookies are
Cookies and similar browser storage are small pieces of data used by websites to remember information, maintain sessions, and support features. This policy covers cookies, local storage, and comparable technologies used on SomeoneNear.
Strictly necessary
These technologies support secure account sign-in, session continuity, fraud prevention, consent choices, and interface settings. They are required for requested features and cannot be disabled through our consent banner. You can block them in your browser, but account access or parts of the service may stop working.
Preferences
Preference storage may remember choices that improve your experience. Our privacy controls let you choose optional preferences, statistics, and marketing categories. SomeoneNear stores these choices locally in this browser.
Statistics and marketing
Optional statistics technologies help a service understand usage. Marketing technologies may measure campaigns or personalize advertising. SomeoneNear currently has no analytics or advertising scripts installed. If we add them, they will remain inactive until you give the relevant consent.
Third-party services
Features you deliberately use—such as account sign-in, payment checkout, calendar connection, or embedded provider tools—may involve storage set by that provider where technically necessary. The consent interface explains the categories and choices that SomeoneNear currently supports.
Your choices
You can accept, reject, or customize optional categories in the SomeoneNear privacy banner and change your decision later. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that occurred lawfully before withdrawal.
What this browser remembers
We store your privacy selection under sn_privacy_choice_v1 for up to 180 days so you do not have to repeat it on every visit. If browser storage is unavailable, your choice applies to the current page. The public globe’s customizations stay in page memory and reset on reload. These privacy controls do not clear your sign-in session, family information, or saved account data.
