Cookie Policy
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and provide information to website owners.
How We Use Cookies
DoughOps uses cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:
Essential Cookies (Required)
These cookies are necessary for the Service to function and cannot be switched off. They include:
- Authentication cookies: Keep you signed in to your account
- Security cookies: Help protect against cross-site request forgery
- Session cookies: Maintain your session while using the app
- Load balancing cookies: Ensure the Service performs optimally
Functional Cookies
These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalization:
- Preference cookies: Remember your settings (theme, language)
- Feature cookies: Remember which features you've used
- Notification cookies: Track which notifications you've dismissed
Analytics Cookies (only if you allow them)
On our marketing website (doughops.com) only, and only after you choose to allow analytics:
- Google Analytics: which pages are visited, how visitors arrive and how long they stay.
- Microsoft Clarity: records how our pages are used (clicks, scrolling, mouse movement and what is on screen) so we can find what confuses people. These recordings are of the marketing site only and are never used to advertise to you.
The DoughOps app (app.doughops.com) contains no analytics or session-recording tools.
Advertising Cookies (only if you allow them)
On our marketing website only, and only after you choose to allow advertising:
- Meta Pixel (Facebook and Instagram) and Microsoft Advertising (Bing): measure which ads bring people to the site, and let us show our ads again to people who visited.
Under some US state laws, including California's, letting these services receive information about your visit for advertising counts as "sharing" your personal information. Refusing advertising cookies opts you out.
Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control
If your browser sends Do Not Track, analytics stays off unless you switch it on yourself. If it sends Global Privacy Control, advertising stays off unless you switch it on yourself; we treat it as a request to opt out of sharing.
Specific Cookies We Use
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are placed by third-party services that appear on our pages:
- Stripe: For secure payment processing
- Google reCAPTCHA: On sign-up and password reset, to stop automated abuse
- Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity: Website analytics, marketing site only, with your permission
- Meta and Microsoft Advertising: Ad measurement, marketing site only, with your permission
Managing Cookies
Your Choices on This Site
Analytics and advertising cookies are switched off until you allow them. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time — withdrawing is as easy as granting:
Browser Settings
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can:
- View what cookies are stored and delete them individually
- Block third-party cookies
- Block all cookies from specific sites
- Block all cookies from being set
- Delete all cookies when you close your browser
Note: Blocking essential cookies may prevent you from using the Service.
Browser-Specific Instructions
Do Not Track
Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" feature that lets you tell websites you don't want your online activity tracked. We honor Do Not Track as the default for analytics cookies: if your browser sends the signal, analytics stays switched off, and "Accept all" will not turn it on. You can still enable analytics deliberately under Manage cookie preferences above, because an explicit choice you make here overrides a browser-wide default.
Local Storage
In addition to cookies, we use browser local storage for:
- Caching data for offline access
- Storing user preferences
- Improving application performance
Local storage can be cleared through your browser's developer tools or by clearing site data.
Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
