What are cookies?
Think of cookies as tiny digital helpers that make your Patchly experience smoother, faster, and a bit more personal. They are small text files stored on your device (like a phone or laptop) when you visit our website or use the Patchly app.
We use them to remember your preferences, keep you logged in safely, and understand how you use our platform so we can make it better for you and your family. Most cookies are automatically deleted when you close your browser, but some stay on your device to remember you for a little longer.
