1. Quick summary
Lingopus keeps cookies simple. We only save what we need to run the site and help you learn better. Optional analytics and advertising cookies are used only if you allow them.
Keeps you signed in, protects your account, and remembers the language you practise. Always on, even without consent, because the site will not work otherwise.
Helps us understand which lessons work and where learners get stuck. Disabled until you press Allow cookies
.
Supports the free plan by showing relevant ads through Google. Off by default and never set while you browse signed-out without consent.
2. How we use cookies
Cookies are small text files stored by your browser. We treat them with care and minimise how many we rely on.
- Essential cookies keep your session safe, power multiplayer learning games, and remember in-progress practise.
- Analytics cookies (Google Analytics 4) collect aggregated usage insights. They help us improve flashcards, streak tracking, and AI suggestions.
- Advertising cookies (Google AdSense) allow ads to feel relevant while keeping your vocabulary data private.
- We never sell personal data, and optional cookies are not loaded until you give us a clear yes.
3. Your choices
You are in control. The cookie banner lets you continue without optional cookies, and you can change your mind whenever you like.
Need to review your choice?
We clear your saved choice and reopen the banner so you can update preferences.
If you keep rejecting optional cookies, we will not store any advertising or analytics cookies while you are signed out. Essential cookies may still be used when you log in so the dashboard works as expected.
4. Managing cookies in your browser
You can also control cookies directly in your browser. Most browsers let you clear cookies, block third-party cookies, or browse in private/incognito mode.
