Cookie Policy

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, or other device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and give website owners information about how their site is being used.

2. How We Use Cookies

At bitusecode, we use cookies and similar technologies (pixels, web beacons, local storage) to:

• Authenticate users and maintain secure sessions
• Remember your preferences and settings (theme, language, editor layout)
• Analyze how you interact with our platform to improve performance
• Personalize AI suggestions based on your coding patterns
• Prevent fraud and enhance security

3. Types of Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies (Strictly Necessary)

These cookies are required for the Service to function properly. They enable core functionality such as security, network management, and account access. You cannot opt out of these cookies as the website would not work properly without them.

Preference Cookies

These cookies allow us to remember your settings and preferences, such as your preferred code theme, font size, and recently used models. They help personalize your experience.

Analytics Cookies

We use analytics cookies to understand how users interact with our platform — which features are most used, error rates, session duration. This helps us improve performance and user experience. We use services like Google Analytics and our own internal analytics.

Functionality Cookies

These cookies enable enhanced features like saving your code snippets between sessions, remembering your AI model preferences, and maintaining your editor state.

4. Third-Party Cookies

We may allow third-party service providers to place cookies on your device for purposes including:

• Payment Processing: Stripe, PayPal (for subscription management)
• Analytics: Google Analytics, Mixpanel (usage tracking)
• Customer Support: Intercom, Zendesk (chat and ticket systems)
• Marketing: LinkedIn, Twitter, Google Ads (conversion tracking — only with your consent)

These third parties have their own privacy policies and cookie practices, which we encourage you to review.

5. Cookie Duration

Cookies can be either "session" or "persistent" in duration. Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period (ranging from a few hours to two years) or until you manually delete them. We use both types to balance functionality and user experience.

6. Managing Cookie Preferences

You have the right to accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can manage your preferences in several ways:

• Cookie Banner: When you first visit our site, you can choose which categories of cookies to accept
• Browser Settings: Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies through their settings menus (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge)
• Opt-Out Tools: You can opt out of Google Analytics using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on

Please note that disabling essential cookies will impact the functionality of our Service, and you may not be able to use certain features.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legal requirements, or our practices. We will notify you of significant changes by posting a notice on our website or via email. The "Last updated" date at the top of this policy indicates when it was last revised.
