Cookie & Data Usage Policy
Understanding how helianopria uses tracking technologies to enhance your budgeting experience while respecting your privacy choices
Manage Your Cookie Preferences
What Are Cookies and Tracking Technologies?
Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device when you visit them. At helianopria, we use these alongside other tracking technologies to remember your preferences, analyze how you use our budgeting tools, and improve your overall experience with our platform.
Think of cookies as digital bookmarks that help our website remember things about you – like whether you prefer the dark theme, which budgeting categories you use most often, or if you've already seen our tutorial videos. This saves you time and makes each visit more personalized.
Types of Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
These keep our budgeting platform working properly. They handle your login sessions, remember your security settings, and ensure forms submit correctly. You can't turn these off without breaking the site functionality.
Functional Cookies
These remember your personal preferences like currency display, notification settings, and dashboard layout choices. They make your budgeting experience smoother and more tailored to your needs.
Analytics Cookies
We use these to understand which budgeting features are most helpful, where users get stuck, and how we can improve our financial tools. The data is anonymized and helps us build better features.
Marketing Cookies
These track your interests to show relevant financial tips and educational content. They also help us measure the effectiveness of our campaigns and avoid showing you the same ads repeatedly.
Essential Cookies That Cannot Be Disabled
Some cookies are absolutely necessary for helianopria to function properly. These include session management cookies that keep you logged in, security tokens that protect against fraud, and technical cookies that remember your language and accessibility preferences. Disabling these would break core functionality like saving your budget data or accessing your account securely.
How Long We Keep Cookie Data
Different cookies have different lifespans based on their purpose. Session cookies disappear when you close your browser, while preference cookies might stick around for up to two years so you don't have to reset your dashboard every time you visit.
Analytics cookies typically expire after 13 months, and marketing cookies usually last between 30 days to one year. We regularly review and clean up old cookie data that's no longer useful for improving your experience.
Managing Cookies Through Your Browser
You have full control over cookies through your browser settings. While our rejection button above handles helianopria-specific tracking, you can also configure your browser to block cookies from all websites or just specific ones.

Third-Party Services and Data Sharing
We work with trusted partners to provide certain features – like our expense categorization service and fraud detection systems. These partners may set their own cookies when you use their integrated features within helianopria.
For instance, if you connect your bank account for automatic transaction imports, that service may use cookies to maintain your secure connection. We carefully vet all partners to ensure they meet our privacy standards and only share data that's necessary for the service to work.
