Cookie Policy
1. Understanding Cookies and Tracking
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognize your device and store certain information about your preferences or past actions.
At SavingsOn.AI, we use cookies and similar tracking technologies (like web beacons and pixels) to provide our core services, primarily the tracking of your purchases to award cashback.
2. Categories of Cookies We Use
A. Essential and Authentication Cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary to provide you with services available through our Platform and to use some of its features, such as access to secure areas.
- Session Persistence: Keeps you logged in as you move from page to page.
- Security: Helps us identify and prevent security risks to your account.
B. Cashback and Affiliate Tracking (Mission Critical)
As a cashback platform, these cookies are the most important part of our technology stack. Without them, we cannot verify that you made a purchase, and therefore cannot pay you cashback.
- Referral ID: When you click a link to a merchant, we store a unique click ID that is passed to the merchant. This ID is used to attribute your purchase to SavingsOn.AI.
- Merchant Cookies: Third-party affiliate networks (like Impact, PartnerStack, or CJ) place cookies on your browser to monitor the transaction lifecycle from click to purchase completion.
C. Performance and Analytics Cookies
These cookies collect information that is used either in aggregate form to help us understand how our Platform is being used or how effective our marketing campaigns are, or to help us customize our Platform for you.
3. How Cookies Affect Your Cashback
Crucial Information: Cashback tracking is fragile and depends entirely on your browser's ability to store and read cookies.
- Ad-Blockers: Many ad-blockers automatically block affiliate tracking links and cookies. We strongly recommend disabling ad-blockers for SavingsOn.AI and all merchant sites when making a purchase.
- Private Browsing: Using "Incognito" or "Private" mode often deletes cookies as soon as you close the window, which can break the attribution link between the merchant and our platform.
- Cross-Device Tracking: If you click a link on your phone but complete the purchase on your laptop, the cashback will likely not track unless you are logged in and using a system that supports cross-device attribution.
4. Managing and Disabling Cookies
Most web browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you prefer, you can usually choose to set your browser to remove cookies and to reject cookies.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons. Please therefore re-visit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.
