Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar tracking technologies are, how LumaAPI uses them, and what choices you have regarding their activation on our website.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used by web developers to make websites function efficiently, retain user preferences (such as dark mode or consent settings), and provide anonymous reporting data.

2. Categories of Cookies We Use

We categorize cookies on LumaAPI into three clear tiers:

A. Strictly Necessary (Essential) Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the website to function properly and cannot be disabled in our systems. They enable essential features such as page navigation, secure HTTPS communication, and remembering whether you have accepted or rejected non-essential cookies.

• Storage Item: luma_cookie_consent (stores your consent choices locally in your browser).
• Duration: Persistent until cleared by user.

B. Performance & Analytics Cookies

With your explicit consent, these cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our astrology calculators, which pages are most popular, and whether visitors encounter any broken links or errors. We use this aggregated, non-personally identifiable data to optimize site usability.

• Service: Google Analytics 4 (configured with IP masking).
• Default Status: Inactive until accepted via the Cookie Consent banner.

C. Advertising & Conversion Cookies

These cookies measure whether visitors arriving from Google Ads campaigns engage with our astrology tools (e.g. initiating a reading). They allow us to evaluate campaign effectiveness without storing your individual astrology calculations.

• Service: Google Ads Conversion Tag.
• Default Status: Inactive until accepted via the Cookie Consent banner.

3. Your Choices & How to Control Cookies

You have full control over non-essential cookies on LumaAPI:

• Our Cookie Banner: When you first arrive at LumaAPI, a banner invites you to Accept All, Reject Non-Essential, or customize your preferences by category.
• Browser Settings: Most modern web browsers (Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, Microsoft Edge) allow you to view, block, or delete cookies through browser settings or privacy preferences.
• Opt-Out Add-ons: You can install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on provided directly by Google to prevent analytics tracking across the web.
