Cookie Policy

Effective Date: May 6, 2025

This Cookie Policy explains how DreamScan ("Website," "we," "us," or "our"), accessible at dreamscan.xyz, uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our Website. It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

By using our Website, you consent to the use of cookies in accordance with this Cookie Policy.

1. What are Cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners in order to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, DreamScan) are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., like analytics).

2. Why Do We Use Cookies?

We use first-party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our Website to operate, and we refer to these as "strictly necessary" cookies. Other cookies enable us to track and understand how users interact with and use our Website, which helps us improve user experience.

Specifically, we use cookies for the following purposes:

• Strictly Necessary Cookies: These cookies are essential to provide you with services available through our Website and to enable you to use some of its features. For example, they are used to maintain your session if you are a registered user and to save your dream interpretations to your account. Without these cookies, the services you have asked for cannot be provided, and we only use these cookies to provide you with those services.
• Performance and Analytics Cookies: These cookies collect information that is used either in aggregate form to help us understand how our Website is being used or how effective our marketing campaigns are, or to help us customize our Website for you.

  We use Google Analytics to collect this type of information. Google Analytics uses its own cookies to collect data such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URLs, pages visited, and time spent on pages. This information is used to compile reports and to help us improve the Website. You can learn more about Google's practices by going to https://policies.google.com/privacy and https://policies.google.com/technologies/cookies. You can opt-out of Google Analytics by installing Google's opt-out browser add-on, available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

3. What Types of Data Do Cookies Collect?

The cookies used on our Website may collect the following types of data:

• IP address
• Browser type and version
• Operating system
• Referring URLs
• Pages visited on our Website
• Time spent on each page
• Date and time of visits
• User preferences (for registered users, to link interpretations to their account)
• Other Browse-related data

4. User Consent for Cookies

When you first visit our Website, you may be presented with a cookie banner or notice requesting your consent to use non-essential cookies (such as analytics cookies).

• Why is consent needed? Many privacy regulations, including those in Israel and the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) which has a broad reach, require websites to obtain user consent before placing most types of cookies (especially those used for analytics or tracking) on a user's device.
• How to obtain consent: We recommend implementing a cookie consent banner or tool that allows users to accept or reject the use of non-essential cookies. This tool should also provide a link to this Cookie Policy for more detailed information.

By continuing to use our Website after being presented with a cookie notice, or by clicking "Accept" (or a similar affirmation) on such a notice, you are consenting to our use of cookies as described in this policy. You can withdraw your consent at any time.

5. How Can You Manage Cookies?

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies.

• Browser Settings: Most web browsers allow some control of most cookies through the browser settings. You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when websites set or access cookies. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of this Website may become inaccessible or not function properly. To find out more about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set and how to manage and delete them, visit www.aboutcookies.org or www.allaboutcookies.org.
• Analytics Cookies Opt-Out: As mentioned above, you can opt-out of Google Analytics cookies by installing Google's opt-out browser add-on.
• Website Cookie Controls (Recommended): We advise implementing a cookie consent tool on DreamScan that allows users to manage their cookie preferences directly on the Website.

Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies may affect the functionality of our Website.

6. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal data collected through cookies. We only share data collected by analytics cookies with our analytics provider (Google) for the purposes of understanding website usage and improving our services, as described above.

7. Updates to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. We will notify registered users of any material changes to this Cookie Policy via email. For non-registered users, please re-visit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.
