Cookie Policy
Understanding Our Cookie Usage
At xandromeliqo, we believe transparency is key when it comes to how we collect and use information about your interactions with our website. This comprehensive policy explains exactly how we use cookies and similar tracking technologies on xandromeliqo.com to enhance your experience with our income budgeting platform.
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device to store information about your preferences, login status, and browsing behavior. Think of them as digital sticky notes that help our website remember important details about your visit. When you return to our site, these cookies help us provide a more personalized and efficient experience tailored to your specific needs and preferences.
We use various types of tracking technologies beyond traditional cookies, including web beacons, pixel tags, and local storage mechanisms. Each serves a specific purpose in helping us understand how users interact with our platform and where we can make improvements to better serve your financial planning needs.
Types of Cookies We Use
Our platform employs different categories of cookies, each serving distinct functions to improve your experience. Here's a detailed breakdown of what we use and why:
Essential Cookies
These are absolutely necessary for our website to function properly. They enable core features like secure login, session management, and basic navigation. Without these cookies, you wouldn't be able to access your budgeting dashboard or save your financial data securely.
Functional Cookies
These enhance your user experience by remembering your preferences, such as your preferred currency display, budget categories you've customized, and interface settings. They make your return visits more convenient and personalized to your specific financial planning style.
Analytics Cookies
We use these to understand how visitors interact with our platform, which features are most popular, and where users might encounter difficulties. This data helps us continuously improve our budgeting tools and educational resources to better serve your financial goals.
Marketing Cookies
These help us deliver relevant content and educational materials about financial planning that match your interests. They also help us measure the effectiveness of our educational campaigns and ensure you receive information that's actually useful for your budgeting journey.
How Cookies Enhance Your Experience
Every cookie we set serves a purpose in making your financial planning journey smoother and more effective. For instance, when you log into your budgeting dashboard, cookies remember your authentication status so you don't need to re-enter credentials every time you navigate between pages.
Our functional cookies remember your preferred budget categories, whether you prefer monthly or weekly views, and which financial goals you're currently tracking. This means each time you visit, your dashboard appears exactly as you left it, with your most important financial information readily accessible.
Analytics cookies help us identify which educational resources are most valuable to our users. If we notice many people spending time on our debt reduction guides, we know to create more content in that area. This data-driven approach ensures we're always developing tools and resources that genuinely help people improve their financial situations.
Data Retention and Storage
Different types of cookies have varying lifespans based on their purpose and the information they contain. We've carefully designed our retention periods to balance functionality with privacy protection.
Session Cookies
These expire when you close your browser and are used for temporary functions like maintaining your login session during active use of our platform.
Short-term Cookies (1-30 days)
Used for recent preference settings and temporary user interface customizations that enhance your immediate experience but don't need long-term storage.
Medium-term Cookies (1-12 months)
Store important preferences like dashboard layouts, notification settings, and learning progress in our educational modules to maintain continuity in your financial planning journey.
Long-term Cookies (Up to 2 years)
Used sparingly for essential functions like remembering your consent preferences and maintaining critical security settings that protect your financial data over time.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You have complete control over how cookies are used on your device. While some cookies are essential for basic website functionality, many others can be disabled based on your personal preferences and privacy comfort level.

Keep in mind that disabling certain cookies may limit some functionality of our platform. For example, if you disable functional cookies, you'll need to reconfigure your dashboard preferences each time you visit, and some personalized features may not work as intended.
Browser-Specific Instructions
Each browser handles cookie management slightly differently. Most browsers allow you to access cookie settings through their privacy or security sections in the main settings menu.
Look for options labeled "Privacy," "Security," "Site Settings," or "Content Settings" to find detailed cookie controls for your specific browser.
Third-Party Cookies and Integration
Our platform integrates with carefully selected third-party services that help us provide better financial planning tools and educational content. These integrations may set their own cookies, which are governed by their respective privacy policies.
For instance, we use analytics services to understand user behavior patterns, which helps us identify areas where people might struggle with budgeting concepts. We also integrate with educational content providers to offer comprehensive financial literacy resources directly within our platform.
We carefully vet all third-party services to ensure they meet our privacy and security standards. However, we recommend reviewing the privacy policies of any third-party services you interact with through our platform to understand their specific data collection and usage practices.
Updates and Changes
As technology evolves and our platform grows, we may need to update this cookie policy to reflect new features, improvements, or changes in how we handle data. We're committed to keeping you informed about any significant changes that might affect your privacy or how you interact with our platform.
When we make substantial changes, we'll notify active users through email and display prominent notices on our website. Minor clarifications or updates may be posted directly to this page with an updated revision date.
We encourage you to review this policy periodically, especially if you have specific privacy concerns or if you notice changes in how our website behaves. Your continued use of our platform after policy updates indicates your acceptance of the revised terms.
