What Are Cookies and Why We Use Them

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit glowtechlink.com. They help our website remember your preferences and understand how you interact with our budget automation platform. Think of them as tiny bookmarks that make your experience smoother.

We use cookies to improve site performance, remember your settings, and provide you with relevant content. But we also believe in giving you control over what data gets collected—which is why we've made it simple to opt out of non-essential tracking.

Types of Cookies We Use

How Cookies Enhance Your Experience

When you use our budget automation tools, cookies help us remember your customized categories, preferred reporting formats, and notification settings. Without them, you'd need to reconfigure everything each time you visit.

Analytics cookies show us if people are actually using new features we've built. For example, when we added batch transaction imports in January 2025, cookie data helped us see adoption rates and identify where users needed more guidance.

Marketing cookies let us understand which content brings visitors to our site. This helps us focus on creating resources that actually help people manage their finances better—not just generic promotional material.

Cookie Retention and Your Control

Different cookies stick around for different lengths of time:

• Session cookies: Deleted automatically when you close your browser
• Preference cookies: Usually last 12 months so your settings persist
• Analytics cookies: Stored for up to 24 months to track long-term trends
• Marketing cookies: Typically expire after 90 days but can vary by partner

You can delete cookies anytime through your browser settings or by clicking the rejection button above. And if you change your mind later, you can always come back to this page and adjust your preferences.

Third-Party Cookies

Sometimes our site loads content from external services—like embedded videos, analytics platforms, or payment processors. These services might set their own cookies, which are governed by their privacy policies rather than ours.

When you reject non-essential cookies on our site, we disable most third-party tracking. However, some essential third-party cookies (like those from our payment processor) may still be necessary for the site to function properly.

Changes to This Policy

We update this policy occasionally—usually when we add new features or change how we collect data. The date at the top shows when we last made changes. If there's something significant, we'll let you know through a banner on the site or via email if you're a registered user.
