Cookie Policy
Effective date: May 3, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Infoproduct Systems s.r.o. ("Fayne", "we", "us") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on the website at fayneos.com, the Fayne platform (including Academies hosted on subdomains of fayneos.com), and any related products and services (together, the "Service").
It should be read together with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.
1. What are cookies and similar technologies?
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device by a website you visit. Cookies are widely used to make websites work, work more efficiently, and provide information to the website operator.
We also use technologies that work like cookies for the same purposes — including local storage, session storage, pixels (transparent images used to detect that a page or email has loaded), tags, SDKs, and server-side identifiers in cookies. In this Policy we refer to all of these as "cookies" unless we specifically need to distinguish between them.
Cookies may be set by us ("first-party") or by third parties whose services we use ("third-party"). They may last only for the duration of your browser session ("session cookies") or remain on your device for a defined period ("persistent cookies").
2. Categories of cookies we use
We group cookies into four categories. The first is always on; the others run only with your consent where required by law.
2.1 Necessary
Strictly necessary for the Service to function. Without these, parts of the Service will not work. Examples:
- keeping you signed in;
- remembering items in a flow (e.g. signup wizard step);
- routing requests, load-balancing, and content-delivery;
- protecting against cross-site request forgery and other security attacks;
- recording your cookie preferences themselves.
2.2 Preferences
Remember choices you make so we can offer a more personalised experience — for example, your preferred theme, language, or last-used Academy.
2.3 Analytics
Help us measure how the Service is used so we can improve it — for example, which pages and features are most used, where users encounter errors, and how performance can be improved. Where required by law, analytics cookies are set only after you consent.
2.4 Marketing
Used to deliver and measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns, including on third-party platforms — for example, attributing a sign-up to an ad you saw, building audiences for retargeting, and limiting how often you see the same ad. Where required by law, marketing cookies are set only after you consent.
3. Cookies we use
The exact set of cookies present on your device depends on which features and integrations are active and on the consent choices you have made. Names, providers, and durations may change as we update the Service. Indicative examples:
3.1 First-party cookies
| Cookie | Category | Purpose | Typical duration |
|---|---|---|---|
cookie_consent | Necessary | Stores your cookie preferences. | 1 year |
| Authentication / session cookies (set by Supabase Auth) | Necessary | Keeps you signed in across pages. | Session and up to 1 year refresh |
| CSRF / security tokens | Necessary | Protects forms and authenticated requests. | Session |
| Theme / locale preference (local storage) | Preferences | Remembers UI choices. | Until cleared |
3.2 Third-party cookies (only when the corresponding integration is active and, where required, you have consented)
| Provider | Category | Purpose | More info |
|---|---|---|---|
| PostHog (EU instance, when enabled) | Analytics | Product analytics, feature usage, session and event measurement. | posthog.com/privacy |
| Stripe | Necessary | Payment processing, fraud prevention on checkout pages. | stripe.com/privacy |
| Google reCAPTCHA (when enabled on forms) | Necessary | Spam and bot protection on signup and contact forms. | policies.google.com/privacy |
| Sign in with Google (when used) | Necessary | Authentication when you choose Google sign-in. | policies.google.com/privacy |
| Meta Pixel (when enabled) | Marketing | Conversion tracking and audience building for Meta (Facebook / Instagram) ads. | facebook.com/privacy |
| LinkedIn Insight Tag (when enabled) | Marketing | Conversion tracking and audience building for LinkedIn ads. | linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy |
| Reddit Pixel (when enabled) | Marketing | Conversion tracking and audience building for Reddit ads. | reddit.com/policies/privacy-policy |
| TikTok Pixel (when enabled) | Marketing | Conversion tracking and audience building for TikTok ads. | tiktok.com/legal/privacy-policy |
| Google Tag Manager / Google Ads / Google Analytics (when enabled) | Analytics / Marketing | Tag management, conversion tracking, audience building. | policies.google.com/privacy |
Where a third party acts as an independent controller for cookies it sets, that party's privacy policy applies. We have linked to those policies above.
4. How we ask for your consent
If you visit the Service from a region where consent is required for non-essential cookies (such as the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland), we display a cookie banner on your first visit. The banner lets you:
- Accept all — agree to all categories;
- Reject all — refuse all non-essential categories;
- Customise — turn individual categories on or off.
Necessary cookies are always on because the Service cannot function without them.
You can change your choices at any time by clearing your browser's site data for fayneos.com (which will remove the cookie_consent cookie) and reloading the page — the banner will reappear so you can choose again. We are working on an in-product preferences centre and will link to it from this page when available.
Outside regions that require prior consent, cookies may be set by default in line with this Policy and your right to opt out under applicable law.
5. Managing cookies in your browser
You can also manage cookies directly in your browser. Most browsers allow you to:
- view the cookies stored on your device;
- delete some or all cookies;
- block cookies from specific sites or all sites;
- block third-party cookies; and
- clear all cookies when you close the browser.
Help pages for popular browsers:
For mobile devices, see your operating system settings (iOS: Settings → Safari → Privacy & Security; Android: app and browser settings).
6. Opting out of interest-based advertising
Industry-level opt-outs for interest-based advertising are available through:
- EU — Your Online Choices
- US — Network Advertising Initiative, Digital Advertising Alliance
- Canada — DAAC AdChoices
- Mobile apps — AppChoices
You can also enable Global Privacy Control (GPC) in supported browsers; we treat a GPC signal as a request to opt out of "sharing" of personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising under California law.
7. Consequences of refusing or removing cookies
You can use the Service without non-essential cookies, but some features may not work as intended:
- preferences may not be remembered across sessions;
- analytics will not see your visit, which may slow down our ability to fix bugs that affect you;
- marketing measurement will be less accurate, which is fine for you and only relevant to us.
Necessary cookies cannot be turned off without breaking the Service.
8. Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. There is no agreed industry standard for honouring DNT in all contexts, so we do not currently respond to DNT signals. We do honour the Global Privacy Control signal as set out in Section 6.
9. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time. The "Effective date" at the top reflects the most recent version. If we make material changes, we will update the cookie banner and ask for fresh consent where required.
