Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains, in plain English, what cookies KristinatLove places on your device when you visit our farmer dating site, why we use them, how long they stay, and how you can manage or turn them off at any time. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms & Conditions.
What Cookies Are and Why We Use Them
Cookies are small text files that a website saves to the browser on your phone, tablet, or computer. They let the site remember that you’ve been there before, keep you logged into your account, and understand which pages rural singles find most helpful so we can keep improving KristinatLove. Some cookies are essential to make the site work. Others help us measure traffic or remember your preferences. We do not use cookies to read any personal information from your device outside of what you share with us directly.
By continuing to use KristinatLove after reviewing this page, you consent to our use of cookies as described below. You can change your mind at any time by following the steps in the How to Manage Your Cookie Preferences section further down. We’ll never set more cookies than we need to run a safe, honest farmer dating site, and we don’t sell cookie data to third parties.
We use two broad categories of cookies. Session cookies disappear as soon as you close your browser — think of them as a sticky note that lasts only one visit. Persistent cookies stick around for a set period so we can remember you the next time you come back, for example to keep you logged in or to remember that you prefer dark mode.
Types of Cookies We Use
The table below lists every category of cookie we set on KristinatLove, what it does, and how long it stays on your device. Cookie names vary by provider and may change over time, but the purpose and duration are representative.
| Cookie Category | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly Necessary | Keeps you logged into your account, remembers form entries, and protects against cross-site request forgery. Without these, the site will not work correctly. | Session to 30 days |
| Preferences | Remembers choices such as light or dark theme, your state filter on local pages, and whether you’ve dismissed the cookie banner. | Up to 12 months |
| Analytics | Helps us count visitors in aggregate, understand which pages country singles find most useful, and spot broken links. Data is anonymized and never linked to your account. | Up to 24 months |
| Security & Fraud | Detects suspicious login patterns, helps block bot sign-ups, and supports our no-fake-profiles promise described on our Why Choose Us page. | Up to 12 months |
How to Manage Your Cookie Preferences
You’re in the driver’s seat. You can accept, reject, or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. Be aware that turning off strictly necessary cookies will break core features like logging in and saving your profile edits.
If you live in a jurisdiction that requires an active opt-in (such as the European Union or California), you’ll see a cookie consent banner the first time you visit. You can change those choices at any time by clearing our cookies and reloading the site. For broader questions about your data rights, please read our Privacy Policy or get in touch through our Contact page.
Third-Party Cookies on KristinatLove
Some cookies are set by carefully chosen partners who help us run the site, not by KristinatLove directly. These include our analytics provider, which counts anonymous visits; our fraud-prevention partner, which helps us spot scam sign-ups; and occasionally a payment processor when you upgrade to a paid plan. We do not allow third-party advertising networks to set tracking cookies for behavioral advertising on our pages.
Each of these partners operates under its own privacy policy and only receives the minimum information needed to do its job. If you’d like a current list of the processors we work with, email us through the Contact page and we’ll be glad to share it. We also list the core partners in the Data Sharing section of our Privacy Policy.
Social sharing buttons and embedded videos, if and when we add them, may also set cookies directly from services like YouTube or Vimeo when you interact with them. If you don’t interact, those cookies are not set.
Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or in the law. When we make a meaningful change, we’ll update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, notify you through the site or by email. We recommend checking this page every now and again so you always know where you stand.
