1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website or service may place on a device when it is visited. They can help a website remember information, keep a user signed in, maintain security, and provide certain features.
Elamia may also use technologies similar to cookies, such as local storage, session technologies, pixels, or other identifiers. In this policy, we refer to these technologies collectively as "cookies."
2. How Elamia uses cookies
Elamia's goal is to use only the technologies reasonably needed to operate and improve the service. We do not use cookies for behavioral advertising directed at children, and we do not sell children's personal information.
Essential cookies and technologies
These may be used when necessary to operate the website or application, including authentication, security, session management, preferences, and other core functionality.
Preference technologies
These may remember choices made by a user so the experience does not need to be configured repeatedly.
Analytics
If Elamia enables analytics, analytics technologies may help us understand general product usage, such as which pages or features are used, how users navigate the site, and whether technical errors occur.
Analytics should be configured to collect only the information needed for product improvement.
Current status: The exact analytics and cookie configuration may change as Elamia moves from beta to public launch. The final published version of this policy should list the actual services and cookie categories used in production.
3. Third-party services
Elamia may use third-party providers that operate their own technologies in connection with the service. Depending on the final production configuration, these may include services used for:
- Authentication and secure account sessions.
- Hosting and database infrastructure, including Firebase / Google Cloud.
- Payment processing, including Stripe, if paid subscriptions are activated.
- AI-assisted writing feedback through OpenAI's API.
- Website or product analytics, if analytics are enabled.
Third-party services may have their own privacy policies and technology practices. The final production version of this policy should identify any third-party cookies or tracking technologies that are actually active on the website.
4. Children's privacy
Elamia is designed as a parent-controlled learning service for children, including children under 13. We take a data-minimization approach and do not use behavioral advertising to target children.
Parents and guardians should understand that the final cookie and consent configuration must be designed consistently with applicable children's privacy laws and with Elamia's Privacy Policy.
We will not rely on a child to make privacy or advertising choices on behalf of a family account where parental authorization is required.
5. Managing cookies
Depending on the type of cookie and the device or browser being used, users may be able to control cookies through browser settings or a cookie-preference tool provided by Elamia.
Blocking essential cookies may prevent some portions of Elamia from working correctly, including sign-in, account security, or other core features.
If Elamia uses optional analytics or other non-essential technologies in production, the site should provide an appropriate way to manage those choices where required by applicable law.
6. Do Not Track and similar signals
Some browsers provide "Do Not Track" or similar privacy signals. Because browser implementations vary, Elamia's handling of such signals will depend on the technologies and legal requirements applicable to the production service.
7. Changes to this Cookie Policy
We may update this policy when our website, application, technology providers, or legal obligations change. We will update the "Last updated" date when material changes are made.
