Cookie Policy for AniPulse

Last Updated: April 17, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how AniPulse (“we”, “us”, or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit anipulse.org.

1. The Good News: No Advertising Tracking Cookies

We respect your privacy. AniPulse does not use marketing or advertising trackers (such as Google AdSense retargeting pixels or Meta Pixels), and we do not build cross-site advertising profiles.

2. What Cookies We Actually Use

We only use Strictly Necessary (Essential) Cookies. These are required for the website to function properly and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you, such as logging in or filling in forms.

We use these essential cookies for:

  • Authentication & Sessions: To keep you securely logged into your account as you move from page to page, and to manage your login state through our third-party providers (Google, Discord, MyAnimeList).
  • Security & Payments: To prevent fraudulent activity and allow our payment processor (Stripe) to securely process your premium subscription upgrades.

We also use privacy-focused Vercel Web Analytics (including custom events) to measure product usage and performance, such as anime card/detail engagement, watchlist actions, AniSwipe usage, search usage, and friend/comment activity. This analytics usage is for improving AniPulse and not for advertising targeting.

3. Third-Party Cookies

Because we integrate with secure third-party platforms to provide our services, those platforms may place their own essential cookies on your browser when you interact with them on our site:

  • Stripe: Uses cookies for fraud prevention and to securely route your payment data.
  • Google, Discord, MyAnimeList: Use cookies to authenticate your identity when you use them to log into AniPulse.
  • Vercel: Provides website hosting and privacy-focused analytics telemetry for AniPulse feature and performance insights.

4. Managing Your Cookies

Because the cookies we use are strictly necessary for the website to function, there is no option to opt-out of them on our site. However, you can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but please be aware that if you do, some parts of the site (like logging in or upgrading your account) will not work.

To learn how to manage cookies directly through your browser, you can visit the help pages of your specific browser (e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Safari).
