What cookies and similar technologies Hunch uses, what each is for, and how to change your choice — anytime, not just on your first visit.
Last updated: July 29, 2026
This policy describes the cookies, page beacons, and similar technologies used across hunch.money and the Hunch web app at app.hunch.money. It supplements our Privacy Policy, which covers your personal information more broadly.
We group every cookie and script into one of three categories. Necessary is always on — it's what keeps you signed in and remembers this choice. Analytics and Ads are optional, and off by default if you're visiting from the EEA, the UK, Switzerland, or Quebec.
| Name / cookie | Category | Purpose | Expiry |
|---|---|---|---|
| hunch_consent hunch.money | Necessary | Remembers your cookie choice. | 1 year (180 days if you decline) |
| cc_cookie hunch.money (first-party) | Necessary | The cookie-preferences widget's own bookkeeping cookie (which categories its dialog last showed as selected). hunch_consent above is the record that actually governs what loads. | Up to 182 days |
| better-auth.session_token / NEXT_LOCALE / hunch_consent hunch.money | Necessary | Keeps you signed in and remembers your language/region. | Session to 1 year |
| _ga, _ga_* www.googletagmanager.com / www.google-analytics.com | Analytics | Google Analytics (GA4) — aggregate usage measurement. | Up to 2 years |
| hunch_attr hunch.money (first-party) | Analytics | Remembers which ad or link brought you here, so we can measure which campaigns work. | 90 days |
| hunch_events beacon hunch.money (first-party, /api/telemetry) | Analytics | First-party product analytics (no cookie set; sent via a page beacon). | Not persisted client-side |
| Cloudflare Web Analytics beacon static.cloudflareinsights.com | Analytics | Privacy-preserving site performance measurement — no cookies set. | Not persisted client-side |
| IDE / test / __gads / __gpi googlesyndication.com / doubleclick.net | Ads | Google AdSense — ad delivery, frequency capping, fraud prevention. | Up to 13 months |
| FCCDCF / TC string fundingchoicesmessages.google.com | Ads | Google's consent record for ad personalization (EEA/UK/Switzerland only). | Up to 13 months |
| Google Ads conversion tracking googleadservices.com / googleads.g.doubleclick.net | Ads | Measures signups that came from a Google Ads campaign (account.hunch.money only). | Up to 90 days |
If you're visiting from one of these regions, ad consent is handled by a separate, Google-certified consent dialog integrated with the IAB's Transparency and Consent Framework, rather than the toggle on this page — a regulatory requirement for AdSense in those regions specifically. You can reopen that dialog at any time from the "Manage ad consent" link in our cookie preferences panel.
We honour the Global Privacy Control (GPC) browser signal: if it's set, we treat analytics and ad cookies as declined by default, the same as an explicit opt-out, everywhere GPC applies.
Use the "Manage cookie preferences" button above, the link in the site footer, or the equivalent setting inside the Hunch web app, at any time — there's no need to clear your browser or wait for a new visit.
