1. WHAT ARE COOKIES?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site. Cookies can be "persistent" (they remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them) or "session" (they are deleted when you close your web browser).
2. HOW WE USE COOKIES
InitRepo.com uses cookies and similar tracking technologies (like web beacons, pixels, and local storage) for various purposes, including:
Essential / Strictly Necessary Cookies: These cookies are vital for the operation of our Services. They enable core functionalities like user login, account management, and secure transactions. Without these cookies, the Services would not function correctly.
Performance / Analytics Cookies: These cookies collect information about how you use our Services, such as which pages you visit most often, how long you spend on the site, and if you encounter any errors. This data helps us understand and improve the performance and design of our Services.
Functionality Cookies: These cookies allow our Services to remember choices you make (such as your username, language, or region) and provide enhanced, more personalized features. They can also be used to remember changes you have made to parts of the website that you can customize.
Marketing / Advertising Cookies: These cookies are used to deliver advertisements more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns.

3. TYPES OF COOKIES WE USE
First-Party Cookies: These are cookies set by InitRepo.com directly when you visit our Services.
Third-Party Cookies: These are cookies set by third-party services that we use for various functionalities, such as analytics, payment processing, or integrated AI platforms. These third parties have their own privacy policies.
4. THIRD-PARTY COOKIES USED
We use the following categories of third-party service providers that may set cookies on your device:
Analytics Services: For example, Google Analytics. These cookies help us understand how users engage with our Services, providing data on website traffic, user demographics, and behavior patterns.
Payment Processors: For example, Stripe. These cookies are essential for securely processing payments and managing subscriptions.
Cloud Computing/Hosting Providers: While primarily server-side, some may use cookies for load balancing, security, or session management.
AI Platforms: If the AI services we integrate (e.g., via API) set cookies for their own operational purposes (e.g., rate limiting, session management for their API calls), these would be considered third-party cookies.
Marketing & Advertising Platforms: If we use services for targeted advertising or retargeting (e.g., Google Ads, Facebook Pixel), these platforms will set cookies to track user interactions and deliver relevant ads.
User Account & Authentication Services: If we use external services for login or user management, they may set cookies to manage your session and authentication status.
