LifeLong Network — Cookie Policy
Effective August 1, 2026 · Last updated September 21, 2026 (v2026-09-21)
1. About this policy
This Cookie Policy explains how LifeLong Network, a product of LifeLong Network Inc., uses cookies and similar technologies on the LifeLong marketing website (lifelong.network) and web application (app.lifelong.network). It should be read with our Privacy Policy.
2. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by a website. Similar technologies include localStorage and comparable browser storage. They let a site remember your actions and preferences and understand how the site is used.
3. Our approach
We keep cookies to a minimum, and non-essential cookies (analytics and advertising) load only after you consent. If you accept, we use Google Analytics to understand usage, and Google Ads and the Meta Pixel (Facebook/Instagram) to measure and improve the ad campaigns that bring people to this site — these set advertising cookies and may be used by Google and Meta for ad personalization and cross-site conversion measurement, under their own privacy policies. If you decline, none of this loads and no advertising cookie is set.
If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as a refusal of advertising cookies. No advertising cookie and no ll_attr campaign cookie is set, and no ad platform loads, whatever you choose in the banner. Analytics still follow your banner choice.
4. Categories we use
a) Strictly necessary. Required for the Services to work — for example signing you in, keeping your session secure, and protecting against cross-site request forgery. These cannot be switched off through our consent banner.
b) Preferences. Remember choices you make, including your cookie-consent decision (stored in your browser as ll-consent) so we don't ask again on every visit.
c) Analytics. To understand how the Services are used so we can improve them, we use Google Analytics (GA4) and PostHog (EU region, product analytics — events and funnels, which does not capture the text you type into forms). Both are loaded only after you consent. Product analytics inside the LifeLong app is not a cookie choice: it is a switch in Settings, "Help improve LifeLong", which is off until you turn it on.
d) Advertising. To run and measure our ad campaigns, we use Google Ads and the Meta Pixel. If you accept, these set advertising cookies used for conversion measurement and may be used by Google and Meta for ad personalization and remarketing (showing you our ads elsewhere) under their own privacy policies — Google's and Meta's. Loaded only after you consent; if you decline or later withdraw consent, we don't load them and clear the advertising cookies below. This category also covers our own first-party ll_attr cookie, which records which campaign or referral first brought you here.

6. Your choices
You stay in control of non-essential cookies:
- Use our consent banner to accept or decline non-essential cookies. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time using the "Cookie preferences" or "Your privacy choices" link in the footer.
- Turn on Global Privacy Control in your browser. We treat it as a refusal of advertising cookies, and it overrides an earlier "accept".
- California residents: click "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" in the footer for a one-click opt-out of the advertising cookies in Section 5 — it takes effect immediately, whether or not you've already accepted.
- Manage or clear cookies at any time through your browser settings.
Disabling some cookies may affect parts of the experience. Strictly necessary cookies are required for the Services to function.
EU / UK visitors: non-essential cookies (including analytics and advertising) are set only after you opt in; nothing non-essential loads until you consent.
7. Changes
We may update this Cookie Policy as our use of cookies changes. We will update the "Last updated" date above.
