Cookie Policy

Last updated: December 13, 2025

This policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and how you can control them. Don't worry—we'll keep it simple.

Spoiler: no actual cookies were harmed in the making of this website.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit. They're used by most websites to make things work, or work better.

Think of them like a tiny memory for websites—they help sites remember your preferences, keep you logged in, and understand how you use them.

2. How we use cookies

At IdealRemit, we use cookies to:

  • Remember your preferences (like language and source country)
  • Understand how you use our site
  • Improve your experience
  • Analyze website traffic and performance
  • Support our marketing efforts

3. Types of cookies

Essential cookies

These are necessary for the website to work. Without them, you couldn't navigate between pages or use core features. We can't turn these off because the site simply wouldn't function.

Analytics cookies

These help us understand how people use our site—which pages are popular, where visitors come from, and how long they stay. We use Google Analytics for this. All information is aggregated and anonymous.

Functionality cookies

These remember choices you make, like your language preference or source country. They make your experience more personalized and convenient.

Advertising cookies

These may be set by our advertising partners to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant ads on other websites. They work by identifying your browser and device.

4. Third-party cookies

We work with some third parties who may set their own cookies on our site:

  • Google Analytics — Helps us understand how you use our site
  • Affiliate partners — Track referrals when you visit provider sites

These third parties have their own privacy policies, which we encourage you to review.

5. How long do they last?

Cookies can stick around for different lengths of time:

  • Session cookies — Temporary. They disappear when you close your browser.
  • Persistent cookies — Stay on your device for a set period (like a year) or until you delete them.

6. Managing cookies

You're in control. Here's how to manage cookies in popular browsers:

  • Chrome: Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data
  • Firefox: Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
  • Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Cookies and website data
  • Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Cookies and site data

Heads up: If you block cookies, some parts of our site might not work as expected.

7. Do Not Track

Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" feature. Currently, there's no industry standard for how websites should respond to these signals, and we don't currently respond to them.

8. Changes

We may update this policy occasionally to reflect changes in technology or our business. When we do, we'll update the date at the top.
