How QFINHUB uses cookies and similar technologies

Last Updated: May 9, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how QFINHUB (“we,” “our,” or “us”) uses cookies, local storage, and similar technologies when you visit our website or use our financial tools. It explains what these technologies are, why we use them, and how you can control them. By using QFINHUB, you consent to the use of cookies and similar technologies as described in this policy.

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit them. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide a better browsing experience. Cookies can be “persistent” (remaining on your device until they expire or are deleted) or “session” (deleted when you close your browser).

Similar technologies such as local storage, session storage, and web beacons may also be used for analogous purposes. In this policy, references to “cookies” include these similar technologies unless otherwise stated.


2. Cookies We Use

QFINHUB uses a minimal set of cookies and local storage entries, all of which are strictly necessary for the operation and security of our platform. We do not use cookies for advertising, tracking across websites, or selling your data.

Note: The asterisk (*) in cookie names represents a dynamic value unique to each Supabase project.


3. Third-Party Cookies

QFINHUB does not use third-party tracking cookies, advertising cookies, or social media cookies. We believe in respecting your privacy and keeping data collection to the absolute minimum required for the platform to function.

The only third-party service that may set cookies is Supabase, our authentication and database provider. Supabase’s authentication cookies are strictly necessary for session management and are not used for any tracking or analytics purposes. You can review Supabase’s cookie practices at supabase.com/privacy.


4. How to Control Cookies

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through your browser settings. You can typically:

  • View and delete cookies that have been stored on your device.
  • Block cookies from specific websites or all websites.
  • Set your browser to notify you when a website attempts to set a cookie.
  • Use private or incognito browsing modes that delete session cookies when you close the browser.

The methods for managing cookies vary by browser. Below are links to instructions for common browsers:

Please note: Blocking essential cookies may affect the functionality of QFINHUB. For example, you may not be able to log in, save calculators, or maintain your language and theme preferences.


5. Local Storage

In addition to cookies, QFINHUB uses browser local storage to cache certain data for improved performance. This includes:

  • Theme preference — cached locally for instant theme switching without a server round-trip.
  • Calculator state — temporary storage of input values to prevent data loss on accidental page navigation.

Local storage data remains on your device and is not automatically transmitted to our servers. You can clear local storage through your browser settings at any time.


6. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements, or the technologies we use. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
