🎃 Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how HalloweenBot uses cookies and similar technologies on our website (https://halloweenbot.com). By using our services, you agree to the use of cookies as described below.

🍪 What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help us enhance user experience, keep users authenticated, store settings, and manage notifications.

🔍 Types of Cookies We Use

• Essential Cookies: Required for authentication (e.g., next-auth.session-token) and maintaining sessions after logging in with Discord.
• Preference Cookies: We store your selected language and timezone per guild using browser storage for faster and personalized experiences.
• Support Code Caching: When you generate a support code for your guild, we store it temporarily in sessionStorage (e.g., supportCode-[guildId]).
• Notification Cookies: Notifications you’ve dismissed are stored in localStorage under dismissedNotifications so we don’t show them again unless new.

🎯 Why We Use Cookies

• To maintain login sessions with Discord using NextAuth.
• To remember your locale and timezone preferences per guild.
• To show only new or active site-wide announcements (notifications).
• To improve site experience and streamline support code retrieval.
