This Cookie Notice explains how Melih Aycicek ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit audfix.com. It explains what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control our use of them.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small data files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work correctly, work more efficiently, and to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by us (audfix.com) are called first-party cookies. Cookies set by other parties are called third-party cookies and enable third-party features on or through our website.

2. Why Do We Use Cookies?

We use first-party cookies for the following purposes:

  • To keep you signed in during your session (authentication cookies)
  • To remember your language preference (locale cookie)
  • To remember your theme preference (audfix_theme cookie)
  • To protect you from cross-site request forgery (_csrf security cookie)
  • To maintain your session state across pages (connect.sid)
  • To store your cookie consent preference (cookie_consent)
We do not use cookies for advertising, behavioural profiling, or cross-site tracking.

3. What Types of Cookies Do We Use?

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are set in response to actions you take, such as logging in, setting your language, or filling in forms.

Functional / Preference Cookies

These cookies allow the website to remember choices you have made and provide enhanced, personalised features.

Analytics Cookies

We may use analytics cookies to understand how visitors interact with our website so we can improve the experience. These are currently first-party only and do not share data with third-party analytics platforms.

We do not currently use Google Analytics or any third-party analytics service that places tracking cookies.

4. How Long Do Cookies Last?

  • Session cookies — deleted when you close your browser
  • locale — expires after 24 hours
  • audfix_theme — persists until you clear your browser cookies
  • cookie_consent — expires after 1 year

5. Do We Use Third-Party Cookies?

No. Currently, we do not place any third-party cookies on your device. All cookies used on audfix.com are first-party cookies set directly by audfix.com.

If this changes in the future, we will update this Cookie Notice and, where required by law, obtain your consent before placing any third-party cookies.

6. How Can You Control Cookies?

Browser Controls

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can set your browser to: notify you when a cookie is being set, block all cookies, or delete all cookies when you close your browser.

Please note: blocking or deleting strictly necessary cookies (such as connect.sid) will prevent you from staying logged in and may cause some features to stop working correctly.

Cookie Consent Banner

When you first visit audfix.com, a cookie consent banner is shown. You can accept or decline non-essential cookies. You may change your preference at any time by clearing your browser cookies, which will trigger the banner to reappear on your next visit.

Do-Not-Track

We honour browser DNT signals on a best-efforts basis. Because there is currently no uniform industry standard for DNT, we do not legally rely on DNT alone — however, we do not use cookies for tracking or advertising purposes regardless.
