Introduction
This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies and similar technologies on our website. By using our website, you consent to the use of cookies as described in this policy.
What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and provide information to the website owners.
How We Use Cookies
We use cookies for the following purposes:
- Essential Cookies: These cookies are necessary for the website to function properly and cannot be switched off in our systems.
- Performance Cookies: These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site.
- Functional Cookies: These cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization.
- Targeting Cookies: These cookies may be set through our site by our advertising partners to build a profile of your interests.
Referral reward cookies
RemoveVideoBG sets three reward cookies. reward_referral is set only when you open an invitation link while signed out. _reward_did is set the first time your browser contacts our sign-in service, which can be on your first visit, before you sign up or use any reward feature. __Host-reward_hw is set when you sign in or use free rewards.
| Cookie | Purpose | Expiry |
|---|---|---|
reward_referral | Remembers which invitation link brought you here, so the reward can be credited to the person who invited you. Contains only the invitation code. Set only when you open an invitation link while signed out. | 30 days |
_reward_did | Used only to help apply our fair-use policy for free rewards and to protect accounts from abuse. It is not used for advertising, analytics or cross-site tracking. | 1 year |
__Host-reward_hw | Used to apply our fair-use policy for free rewards. It is not used for advertising or cross-site tracking. | 1 year |
reward_referral and _reward_did are protected so that page scripts cannot read them and their contents cannot be altered. Deleting reward_referral means we can no longer tell who invited you, so the invitation reward cannot be credited. Deleting _reward_did does not stop you using RemoveVideoBG.
