Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how The Fractional Match (“we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on thefractionalmatch.com (the “Site”). It also describes the choices available to you regarding their use. This policy is designed to comply with United States federal and state privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA), the Colorado Privacy Act (CPA), the Connecticut Data Privacy Act (CTDPA), and similar laws.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, to make them work more efficiently, and to provide reporting information. Similar technologies — such as pixels, local storage, and software development kits (SDKs) — perform comparable functions. In this policy, we refer to all of these as “cookies.”
Cookies may be “session” cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or “persistent” cookies, which remain on your device until they expire or you delete them. They may be set by us (“first-party”) or by third parties whose services appear on our Site (“third-party”).
2. Categories of Cookies We Use
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the Site to function and cannot be switched off. They are typically set in response to actions you take, such as logging in, filling in forms, setting your privacy preferences, or maintaining session state. Without these cookies, parts of the Site will not work.
Functional Cookies
These cookies allow the Site to remember choices you make (such as your preferred language or region) and provide enhanced, more personal features. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages.
Analytics and Performance Cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the Site by collecting and reporting information anonymously. They allow us to count visits and traffic sources, measure and improve performance, and identify which pages are most and least popular.
Advertising and Targeting Cookies
These cookies may be set through our Site by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other sites. They do not directly store personal information but rely on uniquely identifying your browser and device.
3. Third-Party Cookies
We work with selected third parties — such as analytics providers, infrastructure providers, and advertising partners — who may set cookies through the Site. We do not control these third parties or their use of cookies. Please review the privacy and cookie policies of any third parties to understand how they use your information.

- Authenticate your account and keep you signed in;
- Maintain session and security state;

5. Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You can set your browser to refuse all or some cookies, to alert you when cookies are being sent, or to delete cookies that have already been set. Please note that if you choose to block strictly necessary cookies, you may not be able to access all or parts of the Site.

6. Your U.S. Privacy Rights
Depending on the state where you reside, you may have additional rights regarding cookies and the personal information they collect, including the right to know, access, correct, delete, and opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
California residents:Under the CCPA/CPRA, you have the right to opt out of the “sale” and “sharing” of personal information. We honor recognized opt-out preference signals, including the Global Privacy Control (GPC), where required by law.

7. “Do Not Track” Signals
Some browsers transmit “Do Not Track” (DNT) signals. Because no common industry or legal standard for DNT has been adopted, we do not currently respond to DNT signals. We do, however, honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals where required by law.
8. Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, law, our business operations, or for any other reason. When we do, we will revise the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
