Cookie Policy
Last updated: March 24, 2026
1. Introduction
Creator Review Database (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit and use this website (the “Service”). This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can manage them.
This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides broader information about how we collect and handle your personal data.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognize your device across requests and between visits. Cookies do not contain executable code and cannot access other data on your device.
Cookies are widely used to make websites work efficiently and to provide information to the website operator. Without certain cookies, many features of the Service would not function correctly.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
We use two categories of cookies on the Service:
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are strictly necessary for the Service to function. They cannot be switched off. They are typically set in response to actions you take, such as logging in or verifying your age. Without these cookies, the Service cannot operate correctly.
| Cookie | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
session | Maintains your authenticated login state during a visit. | Session | Deleted when browser closes |
age_verified | Remembers that you have confirmed you are 18 years of age or older, so you are not prompted again on return visits. | Persistent | Up to 1 year |
csrf_token | Protects against cross-site request forgery attacks when submitting forms. | Session | Deleted when browser closes |
preferences | Stores your UI preferences (e.g., display settings) across sessions. | Persistent | Up to 90 days |
Non-Essential Cookies
We currently do not use any non-essential cookies, including advertising, tracking, or behavioral profiling cookies. We do not sell personal data or use cross-site tracking technologies for marketing purposes.
If we introduce non-essential cookies in the future, we will update this policy and request your consent before setting them.
4. Session vs. Persistent Cookies
- Session cookies are temporary and exist only for the duration of your browser session. They are automatically deleted when you close your browser. We use session cookies to keep you logged in while you navigate the Service and to protect form submissions.
- Persistent cookies remain on your device between sessions until they expire or you delete them. We use persistent cookies to remember your age verification and display preferences so you do not need to re-enter them on each visit.
5. Third-Party Cookies
Our Service is hosted on AWS (Amazon Web Services). AWS may set cookies for infrastructure and security purposes as part of operating the platform. These cookies are subject to AWS's own privacy and cookie policies. We do not permit third-party advertising or analytics vendors to set cookies through our Service.
6. Managing Cookies
You can control and manage cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:
- View what cookies are stored on your device and delete them individually or all at once.
- Block third-party cookies.
- Block cookies from specific websites.
- Block all cookies from being set.
- Delete all cookies when you close your browser.
Please note that if you disable or delete essential cookies, parts of the Service may not function correctly. For example, disabling session cookies will prevent you from staying logged in, and deleting the age verification cookie will require you to confirm your age again on your next visit.
For instructions on managing cookies in your browser, please consult your browser's help documentation:
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legislation, or our cookie practices. We will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page when we do. Your continued use of the Service after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
