THE SHORT VERSION
Helel uses essential cookies to work, and optional analytics and advertising cookies only if you say yes. Helel works exactly the same if you say no.
1What cookies are
Cookies are small files stored in your browser that help a website remember things across pages, like keeping you signed in. Some are essential. Others are optional and need your consent.
2Essential cookiesAlways on
These are always on, because Helel can't work without them:
- Sign-in: keep you securely signed in.
- Security: protect against fraud and abuse.
- Preferences: remember your choices, including your cookie choices.
3Analytics cookiesOptional
We use Google Analytics 4 (Google Ireland Ltd.) and PostHog to count visits, sign-ups and monthly active users, so we can improve Helel. They load only if you accept analytics cookies.
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Kept for |
|---|---|---|---|
_ga | Tells visitors apart | 2 years | |
_ga_* | Keeps track of your visit | 2 years | |
ph_*_posthog | PostHog | Counts unique visitors and sessions | 1 year |
4Advertising cookiesOptional
We advertise Helel on Facebook and Instagram, and through Microsoft Advertising on Bing. If you accept advertising cookies, we load the Meta Pixel and the Microsoft UET tag, and our server may send the same events to Meta through the Conversions API. This tells us which ads led people to visit helel.ai, sign up or subscribe.
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Kept for |

_fbp | Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd. | Recognises your browser across visits to measure our ads | 90 days |
_fbc | Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd. | Remembers which Meta ad you clicked | 90 days |

We never send Meta or Microsoft your test answers, conversations, memories or messages. Meta's own use of this data is described in Meta's Privacy Policy.
5What we don't do
We never show ads inside Helel, and we never sell your data. We don't use cookies to build advertising profiles from your conversations. Helel is funded by subscriptions.
6How to control cookies
