This Cookie Policy explains how GainIQ LLC("GainIQ," "we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website at www.gainiq.ai or use the GainIQ application (together, the "Service"). It explains what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control our use of them.

This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service, both of which it is incorporated into by reference. In some cases, cookies may collect personal information, or information that becomes personal information when combined with other data — where that occurs, our Privacy Policy governs how that data is handled.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small data files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, to make them work more efficiently, and to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (GainIQ) are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality on or through the Service (e.g., analytics, payment processing, embedded content). Parties that set third-party cookies can recognize your device both when it visits our Service and when it visits certain other websites.

Why do we use cookies?

We use first-party and (where applicable) third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons for the Service to operate — we refer to these as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. Other cookies enable us to remember your preferences, keep you signed in, and understand how the Service is used so we can improve it. This is described in more detail below.

Some cookies are used for advertising and marketing measurement — for example, Meta Pixel and Google Ads. These are not set until you provide consent through the cookie banner shown to every visitor on their first visit, described below. Where consent is not given, we use Google's Consent Mode so Google receives only an aggregated, cookieless signal instead of setting a cookie.

How can I control cookies?

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject non-essential cookies. Non-essential cookies are not set for any visitor until you provide consent through the cookie banner presented on your first visit. You can change your preferences at any time via the Cookie Preferences link in the site footer. Essential cookies cannot be rejected, as they are strictly necessary to provide the Service (for example, keeping you signed in).

You may also set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies; see browser-specific instructions below. If you reject non-essential cookies, you can still use the Service, though some functionality may be limited.

Your privacy choices (California residents)

GainIQ does not sell personal information for money. The advertising cookies described above (Meta Pixel and Google Ads) may be considered "sharing" for cross-context behavioral advertising under the CCPA/CPRA once they are set. You can opt out of this at any time — and prevent it going forward — via the Cookie Preferences link in the site footer, or by declining non-essential cookies in the first-visit banner.

GainIQ honors Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals as a valid opt-out preference signal for any future use of cookies that would otherwise require an opt-out under CCPA/CPRA. If you have questions about your California privacy rights, see our Privacy Policy or contact us at the address below.

How can I control cookies on my browser?

Other tracking technologies

Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors. We may use similar technologies from time to time, such as web beacons or pixels, to understand traffic patterns and measure the performance of the Service. Where such technologies rely on cookies to function, declining cookies will impair their operation.

How often will you update this Cookie Policy?

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Please revisit this page periodically. The date at the top of this page indicates when it was last updated.
