Cookies Policy

Effective Date: February 28, 2026

This Cookies Policy explains how MapMyMemories uses cookies on our website in compliance with European directives (Cookie Law).

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help us ensure the website functions correctly and analyze how it is used.

2. Types of Cookies We Use

  • Strictly Necessary Cookies (no consent required): Essential for the website to function. This includes cookies set by our mapping provider Mapbox for loading map tiles, geocoding, and route rendering. Since MapMyMemories is a map editor, these mapping services are integral to the core functionality of the application and cannot be disabled without breaking the service. This category also includes your cookie consent preference stored in localStorage.
  • Functional Cookies: Mapbox may set additional cookies for session management during map interactions. These support the interactive map editor experience.
  • Analytics Cookies (consent required): We use Google Analytics (cookies starting with `_ga`) to measure aggregate traffic and user interactions. This data is collected anonymously. These cookies are installed only after you provide explicit consent via the cookie banner on your first visit. Note: we do not use Firebase Analytics.
  • Mapbox Telemetry: The Mapbox GL JS library may collect anonymous usage telemetry. We categorize this separately as it is controlled by Mapbox. You can review Mapbox's privacy policy at mapbox.com/legal/privacy.

3. Managing Cookies

You can manage your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the 'Cookie Preferences' link in our website footer, which will reset your consent choice and show the cookie banner again. You can also disable cookies or clear your past choices through your browser settings. However, disabling strictly necessary cookies may prevent the map editor from functioning correctly.
