Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit websites. They serve various purposes including remembering your login status, saving your preferences, and helping website owners understand how their sites are used.

LoveQUIL uses cookies and similar technologies to provide our memorial platform services, enhance your experience, and ensure the security of sensitive memorial content.

These cookies are strictly necessary for LoveQUIL to function properly. They enable core functionality including user authentication, security protection, and basic platform operations. Essential cookies cannot be disabled without breaking the platform.

Functional cookies enhance your experience by remembering your preferences and maintaining your draft content. While not essential for basic functionality, they significantly improve usability, especially when creating memorial content.

You can disable functional cookies, but this may result in:

• Loss of saved draft obituary content
• Resetting of accessibility preferences
• Need to reconfigure location sharing preferences
• Loss of display and theme preferences

Analytics cookies help us understand how LoveQUIL is used, which features are most helpful to families, and where we can improve our memorial services. This data is aggregated and anonymized.

We carefully select third-party partners based on their privacy standards and reputation. However, we are not responsible for the privacy practices of these external services.
