Cookie Policy

Last updated: July 22, 2025

1. What are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored by your browser when you visit a website. They help websites work properly, improve user experience, and—if you consent—allow measurement and marketing features.

2. Categories We Use

Strictly Necessary (always on): required for secure, reliable operation (e.g., login/session, security, consent preferences). These do not require consent.
Analytics (optional, only with consent): help us understand how the site is used (e.g., Google Analytics 4).
Marketing / Ads (optional, only with consent): used for remarketing or measuring ad conversions. Currently not active. If activated in the future, such tags will load only after consent and this Policy will be updated.

3. Cookies We Set

Below are the main cookies used by Junior Launch. Exact names may vary slightly by browser or provider.

Name	Type	Purpose	Duration
`jl-analytics`	Strictly Necessary	Stores your Analytics consent choice.	12 months
`jl-marketing`	Strictly Necessary	Stores your Marketing/Ads consent choice.	12 months
`_csrf`	Strictly Necessary	Security/anti-CSRF token to protect forms and sessions.	Session
`token`	Strictly Necessary	Keeps you signed in and powers authenticated features.	Until logout or token expiry
`_ga`, `_ga_<ID>`	Analytics (optional)	Google Analytics 4 measurement cookies. Set only if you consent to Analytics. Without consent, GA4 is run in Consent Mode and does not set these cookies.	Up to ~24 months

4. Consent Management

On your first visit, we display a cookie banner so you can Accept, Reject, or Accept selected. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time via the “Cookie Settings” link in the footer. If you do not consent, Analytics and Marketing cookies are not set. Changes take effect immediately (you may need to refresh the page).

We use Google’s Consent Mode so that, without Analytics consent, Google Analytics receives only limited, cookieless signals used for aggregated measurement—without placing analytics cookies on your device.

5. Third-Party Cookies

We primarily host assets on our own domain. Any third-party tags that set cookies (e.g., advertising pixels) will load only if you consent to Marketing. If we introduce such tags, we will update this Policy with details (provider, purpose, duration).

6. Managing Cookies in Your Browser

You can also manage or delete cookies via your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may impact core features such as login or saved preferences.

7. Updates

We may update this Cookie Policy in response to technical or legal changes. Please review this page periodically for the latest version. For information about how we process personal data, see our Privacy Policy.
