Cookie Policy
We believe in transparency. This policy explains how clevorana uses tracking technologies on our platform to improve your experience while respecting your privacy and giving you control over your data.
What Are Cookies and Why We Use Them
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device. Think of them as digital sticky notes that help websites remember your preferences and understand how you interact with their content.
At clevorana, we use cookies to make your budget consolidation experience smoother. When you visit our site, these files help us remember your dashboard preferences, keep you logged in securely, and understand which features you find most useful. This isn't about surveillance—it's about creating a financial platform that actually works the way you need it to.
Most budget tracking tools need some form of memory to function properly. Without cookies, you'd have to re-enter your preferences every single time you visit, and we wouldn't be able to provide personalised insights about your spending patterns.
Types of Tracking We Use
Essential Cookies
These keep our platform running. They handle your login sessions, security features, and basic navigation. You can't turn these off without breaking core functionality.
Functional Cookies
These remember your choices—dashboard layout, notification settings, currency preferences. They make clevorana feel like your own personal financial workspace.
Analytics Cookies
We track which features get used most, where people get stuck, and what helps users succeed. This data guides our development priorities and helps us fix problems.
Performance Cookies
These monitor load times, error rates, and technical performance. They help us identify bottlenecks and keep the platform responsive even during peak usage.
How Cookies Actually Work on clevorana
When you first visit clevorana.com, your browser downloads our cookie files. Some expire when you close your browser—these are session cookies that handle temporary tasks like keeping you logged in during a single visit.
Others stick around longer. Persistent cookies might remember your dashboard preferences for weeks or months. This means you don't have to reconfigure everything each time you check your budget.
Specific Uses You'll Encounter
- Authentication tracking that maintains your secure session across pages
- Preference storage for your custom budget categories and spending alerts
- Analytics that show us which consolidation features actually help users save money
- Performance monitoring that identifies slow-loading pages or features
- Security measures that detect unusual account activity patterns
- Error tracking that helps our development team fix bugs faster
Quick Reference: Cookie Behaviour
First-party cookies come directly from clevorana and help us provide our core budget tracking services.
Session cookies disappear when you close your browser—they handle temporary authentication and navigation.
Persistent cookies stay on your device for set periods, storing preferences and tracking patterns over time.
Analytics cookies collect anonymised data about feature usage and platform performance trends.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You control this. Every modern browser lets you manage cookies through its settings. Here's where you'll find those controls in popular browsers:
Chrome
Firefox
Safari
Edge
Look for "Privacy" or "Settings" in your browser menu, then find the section about cookies or site data. You can typically block all cookies, block third-party cookies only, or delete cookies after each browsing session.
Fair warning—if you block essential cookies, parts of clevorana won't work properly. You might not be able to log in, save preferences, or access certain budget tracking features. Blocking analytics cookies is safer and won't break functionality.
Data Storage and Retention
Different cookies have different lifespans based on their purpose. Session cookies vanish immediately when you close your browser. Preference cookies might last three to twelve months. Analytics cookies typically expire after two years.
Your Rights Regarding Cookie Data
You can request details about what data we've collected through cookies. You can ask us to delete cookie-generated data tied to your account. You can opt out of analytics tracking while maintaining access to core features. And you can withdraw consent at any time through your browser settings or by contacting us directly.
