GitHits Cookie Policy

Effective date: February 23, 2026 | Last updated: March 10, 2026

This Cookie Policy forms part of the GitHits Legal Framework, which includes the GitHits Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, Data Processing Agreement, and Subprocessor List. If a conflict exists between this Cookie Policy and the Terms of Service, the Terms of Service will prevail.

This Cookie Policy explains how GitHits uses cookies and similar technologies (such as SDKs, pixels, and local storage) on our websites and Service.

For more information about how we process personal data, see our Privacy Policy.

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels, and SDK identifiers. We use these technologies to operate the Service, remember preferences, and to understand how users use the Service.

We require these cookies for core functionality, and you cannot switch them off in our systems. They include authentication and session cookies, security cookies, and load balancing or performance cookies that we need to deliver the Service.

Functional cookies help remember your settings and preferences (such as theme or language) and enable optional features such as live chat support.

Where you explicitly request a specific feature (such as selecting dark mode or opening the support chat), we treat the cookie that remembers this choice as strictly necessary for that feature. Customer support tools (such as Intercom Messenger) load only when you actively open the chat widget, and we treat their cookies as functional rather than strictly necessary for the Service as a whole.

We use analytics technologies to understand how users interact with the Service, diagnose issues, and improve features. At launch, we use Datadog RUM/APM for performance monitoring and error diagnostics, and PostHog for product analytics.

Analytics cookies and similar trackers may collect information such as page views, clicks, device and browser details, and event timing. Depending on the configuration, they may also receive identifiers that we associate with your account.

We set analytics cookies only after you provide consent, where applicable law requires consent (such as under the ePrivacy Directive, as each EEA member state has transposed it into national law). If you do not consent, we will not place these cookies on your device.

GitHits does not use advertising or targeting cookies. We do not serve ads and do not use cookies for cross-context behavioral advertising or retargeting. GitHits does not embed third-party social media tracking cookies on our Service.

Where law requires it, we will ask for your consent before setting non-essential cookies and will provide a way to manage your preferences. Most browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings, although blocking some cookies may affect the Service.

Because we do not sell or share your data for behavioral advertising (as Section 3 describes), privacy signals such as Global Privacy Control (GPC) will primarily function as an opt-out request for our analytics cookies. We will honor GPC and similar signals where applicable law requires us to do so.

Some cookies last only for the duration of your browser session and are deleted when you close the browser. Others persist for longer periods. We retain persistent cookies for no longer than is necessary to fulfill their purpose, and in no event longer than 13 months, unless applicable law requires otherwise.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time and will update the effective date above.
