Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device. In addition, there is ‘local storage’ (localStorage) in your browser, which works in a similar way. In this policy, we refer to both simply as ‘cookies’.
okaydating.be only uses cookies that are strictly necessary for the site to function or to remember a choice you have made yourself. We do not use analytical, advertising or tracking cookies, and we do not track you across other websites. By law, no consent is required for strictly necessary cookies; that is why you do not see a cookie banner.
| Name | What is it for? | Type | Retention period |
|---|---|---|---|
| wordpress_logged_in_*, wordpress_sec_*, wordpress_* | Staying logged in and keeping your account secure | Strictly necessary | Until you log out, or for 14 days if you select ‘Remember me’ |
| wordpress_test_cookie | Check whether your browser accepts cookies (required to log in) | Strictly necessary | Until you close the browser |
| wp-settings-*, wp-settings-time-* | Administrators’ display preferences in the back office | Strictly necessary (administrators only) | 1 year |
| bm_mini_auth | Administrators’ access to the mini-dashboard | Strictly necessary (administrators only) | 90 days |
| bm_age_confirmed (local storage) | Please remember that you have confirmed you are 18 or over, so that the question does not reappear on every page | Functional – as requested by you | Until you cleared your browser history |
| bm_display (local storage) | Remember whether you want to view adverts as a grid or as a list | Functional – as requested by you | Until you cleared your browser history |
You can delete cookies and local storage at any time via your browser settings. If you block strictly necessary cookies, you will no longer be able to log in and some parts of the site will not work.
If we start using other cookies in the future (for example, for visitor statistics), we will amend this policy and ask for your consent in advance via a clear cookie banner, where you can refuse or accept them just as easily.
You can read more about how we handle your data in our privacy policy. Any questions? Please email info@okaydating.be.
