Last Updated: October 11,2026 | Effective Date: July 27, 2026
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) by your web browser when you visit a website. Cookies help websites remember your preferences, authenticate your identity, and maintain your session across page loads.
Cookies are either first-party (set by the website you are visiting) or third-party (set by a domain other than the one you are visiting, typically for advertising or tracking).
2. Cookies We Use
Tiger Echo uses a minimal set of cookies. We do not use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, advertising cookies, or social media tracking pixels.
2.1 Essential (Authentication) Cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary for the Service to function. They cannot be disabled without making the Service unusable (you will be logged out).
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration | First/Third Party |
|---|---|---|---|
| session / session_id | Maintains your logged-in session; stores user ID and authentication state | Session (cleared on logout) or up to 14 days with "Remember Me" | First-party |
| csrf_token | Cross-Site Request Forgery protection; validates form submissions | Session | First-party |

4. How to Manage Cookies
You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings at any time:
- Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and site data
- Mozilla Firefox: Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Cookies and website data
- Microsoft Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies
5. Do Not Track (DNT) & Global Privacy Control (GPC)
Tiger Echo respects the Do Not Track (DNT) browser signal and the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. If you have DNT or GPC enabled in your browser, we do not use non-essential tracking. If a GPC signal is detected, we treat it as a valid opt-out request for any sale or sharing of personal information. Note that since we do not use non-essential cookies or sell/share personal data, these signals have no practical tracking effect on our Service, but we honor them as a matter of compliance.
6. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
