What Are Cookies?

A cookie is a small text file stored in your browser when you visit a website. Cookies are used to enable a website to remember information about your visit so that it can provide a better experience on your next visit.

Types of Cookies Used by LOING

🔒 Essential Cookies

These cookies are essential for providing the basic functions of the service. They are used to maintain your logged-in status, security settings, language settings, and the like. These cookies cannot be disabled.

Examples: Session ID, CSRF token, language preference

Expiration: At the end of the session or up to 30 days

📊 Analytics Cookies

These cookies are used to analyze how visitors use the website in order to improve the service. Through Google Analytics 4 (GA4), we collect information such as page views, traffic sources, device and browser type, and approximate region under a pseudonymous identifier (cookie ID). We do not collect information that directly identifies you, such as your name or email address.

Expiration: Up to 2 years

🎯 Functional Cookies

These cookies remember your preferences (such as dark mode and font size) to provide a customized experience. If you disable these cookies, some features may not function as expected.

Examples: Theme settings, notification consent status

Expiration: Up to 1 year

Consent to Analytics Cookies

We ask visitors in Europe (the European Union/European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, etc.) for consent before using analytics cookies.

  • Visitors in Europe: If your browser's time zone is set to a European region, a cookie banner appears on your first visit. Google Analytics is not loaded and no analytics cookies are stored until you select “Accept”. If you select “Reject”, you can still use the site in exactly the same way.
  • Additional safeguard: Separately, we apply Google Consent Mode (v2), so that for visitors determined to be accessing the site from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, analytics and advertising storage are treated as denied until consent is given.
  • Visitors in other regions: Analytics cookies are used by default, and you can reject them at any time.
  • How your choice is stored: Your choice to accept or reject is stored in your browser's local storage, not in a cookie. If you clear your browser data, we will ask you again.

How to Change Your Cookie Choice

You can reopen the cookie banner at any time by selecting “Cookie settings” at the bottom of the website, and switch your choice between accepting and rejecting. If you reject, Google Analytics stops collecting data, and any Google Analytics cookies already stored are deleted.

You can also change cookie settings in most web browsers. However, if you disable cookies, some features of the service may not function properly.

  • Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
  • Safari: Settings → Privacy → Manage cookies and website data
  • Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
  • Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies and site data

To block Google Analytics data collection on all websites, you can use the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

This Cookie Policy may be revised in response to changes in applicable laws or changes to our service operating policies. In the event of any changes, we will provide notice through an announcement within the service.
