Cookie Policy
Last updated: 9 June 2026
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies and similar technologies (including browser localStorage) are small pieces of data stored on your device. We group them into strictly necessary (always on, needed to run the site) and analytics (optional, only with your consent).
2. Your Consent & Choices
When you first visit, a banner lets you Accept all, Reject non-essential, or set Preferences. Analytics are off until you opt in. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time using the "Cookie settings" link in the footer of any page. You can also clear cookies/local storage via your browser settings (this will sign you out and remove locally saved charts).
3. Strictly Necessary (always on)
| Item | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Supabase session token | Keeps you signed in to your account | Session / persistent |
| bnn-theme, preferences (localStorage) | Remembers light/dark theme and UI settings | Persistent (local) |
| Saved charts & readings (localStorage) | Stores the birth charts/readings you choose to save, in your browser | Persistent (local) |
| bnn_cookie_consent (localStorage) | Remembers your cookie choices | Persistent (local) |
| googtrans (cookie) | Set only if you use the on-demand Google Translate option | Session |
4. Analytics (optional — only with consent)
| Item | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| AstroBNN usage analytics | First-party records of the readings you run/save and the page, used to improve the tools. Only collected if you opt in. | Session id + stored events |
Separately from the above, we keep a daily total of how many readings the site produced: a date, which tool it was, and a number. It records nothing about who ran them: no name, no birth details, no account, no device or session identifier, and nothing is stored on your device. Because a total of that kind cannot be traced to any individual, it is kept whatever your cookie choice, and it is the only usage figure that works that way. It is how we know the tools are being used at all, since everything in the table above counts only visitors who opted in.
5. What We Do NOT Do
- We do not use advertising or third-party tracking cookies (no Google Ads, no Facebook Pixel).
- We do not sell your data to any third party.
- We do not build behavioural profiles for ad targeting.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The "last updated" date at the top of this page will reflect any changes.
