This Cookies Policy explains how AIBuildrs (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on our website and services. It’s part of our Privacy Policy and tells you what cookies are, which types we use, why we use them, and how you can control them.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, phone, tablet) by the websites you visit. They help sites remember information about your visit — for example language preferences, whether you’re logged in, or analytics about how you use the site.
Why we use cookies
We use cookies to make the site work (technical), to remember your choices (preferences), to understand how people use the site (analytics), and to show relevant marketing (advertising). Cookies help us make the experience faster, safer and more useful.
Types of cookies we may use
1. Strictly necessary / essential cookies
These cookies are required for the website to function correctly (e.g., session management, security, form validation). They cannot be turned off via the cookie banner because the site would not work properly without them.
Examples: session identifiers, security tokens.
Retention: session or short-term.
2. Preferences / functional cookies
Remember choices you make (language, region, display preferences) so the site remembers them on future visits.
Examples: language preference cookie, theme selection.
Retention: weeks to months.
3. Analytics / performance cookies
Collect aggregated, anonymous data about how visitors use the site (pages visited, time on site, error reporting). This helps us improve the site and fix issues. We use aggregated metrics — not personally identifying information — unless you’ve provided consent elsewhere.
Examples: analytics identifiers (e.g., _ga, _gid-style cookies).
Retention: usually 24 hours to 2 years depending on the tool.
4. Advertising / marketing cookies
Used to deliver relevant ads, measure ad performance, and build audiences for retargeting. These may be set by us or by third-party advertising partners.
Examples: advertising identifiers and tracking pixels.
Retention: varies (days to months).
5. Third-party cookies
Some cookies are set by third parties (e.g., analytics providers, social widgets, payment gateways) when you interact with embedded content or integrations. These third parties control their own cookies and how they use them.

Note: The specific cookie names on your site depend on the tools you use. I can provide a tailored cookie table listing exact cookie names once you tell me which vendors (e.g., Google Analytics, Framer, Stripe, Facebook/Meta Pixel) you use.
How we obtain consent
Where required by law, we show a cookie consent banner on first visit that explains cookie categories and lets you accept or manage choices. Essential cookies are enabled by default; you can opt in or out of non-essential cookies.
Suggested short banner text:
“We use cookies to improve your experience. By continuing you accept our Cookies Policy. Manage preferences.”
Suggested banner actions: Accept / Manage preferences / Reject non-essential
How to control or delete cookies
You can manage cookies in several ways:
Cookie banner / settings on the site: Use the Manage Preferences option to accept or reject categories of non-essential cookies.
Browser settings: Most browsers let you view, delete, or block cookies: open Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies (or similar). Deleting cookies may remove saved preferences and require you to log in again.
Private / incognito mode: Browsing in private mode usually prevents long-term cookies from being stored after the session ends.
Opt-out tools: For some analytics/advertising providers there are official opt-out controls or browser add-ons (e.g., Google Analytics opt-out add-on).
Device controls: Mobile browsers and OS privacy settings also let you control tracking and cookies.
If you want, I can draft step-by-step instructions for the major browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) or create a small “Manage Cookies” dialog you can paste into your site.
Third-party providers & links
We may work with third-party providers that set cookies when you use our site (e.g., analytics, ad networks, payment processors). Their cookies are governed by their own policies. We recommend reviewing those providers’ cookie and privacy information for more details.
Retention and deletion
Cookie durations vary by cookie and provider. Essential session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain until their set expiry or until you delete them. We do not keep cookie-based logs longer than necessary for their purpose.
Changes to this Cookies Policy
We may update this policy when needed (new tools, legal changes). Material changes will be notified via the website or email where appropriate. The “Effective date” at the top shows the last update.
