What Are Cookies and Why We Use Them

Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device when you visit them. Think of them as digital sticky notes that help websites remember things about your visit. At Raydium Xapp, we're pretty straightforward about this stuff – we use cookies to make our site work better and understand how people interact with our mobile development services.

Here's the thing: some cookies are absolutely necessary for our website to function properly. These essential ones handle basic tasks like keeping you logged into our client portal or remembering items in your project inquiry form. Without them, parts of our site simply wouldn't work. Then there are optional cookies that help us improve your experience and understand what content resonates with visitors interested in mobile app development.

Types of Cookies We Use

Most of these cookies expire automatically – some after your browsing session ends, others after a set period like 30 days or 2 years. We regularly review and clean up our cookie usage to keep only what's genuinely useful for improving our service.

How Cookie Data Improves Your Experience

When someone visits our site looking for mobile app development services, cookies help us provide more relevant information. For instance, if you've previously looked at our iOS development case studies, we can prioritize showing you related content about Apple's latest frameworks or similar project examples.

Analytics data helps us identify common questions or concerns that visitors have. If we notice people spending a lot of time on our pricing page but not contacting us, that might indicate we need to clarify our service packages or add more detailed cost information. This kind of insight directly leads to improvements that benefit future visitors.

For our marketing efforts, cookies help us avoid showing you ads for services you've already inquired about, and instead focus on complementary offerings that might genuinely interest you. Nobody wants to see the same app development ad repeatedly after they've already submitted a project inquiry.

Third-Party Services and Data Sharing

We work with several trusted third-party services that place their own cookies on our site. Google Analytics is our primary analytics provider, and they have their own comprehensive privacy policies governing how they handle data. We've configured our Google Analytics setup to anonymize IP addresses and respect user privacy preferences where possible.

For advertising, we may use services like Google Ads or Facebook Pixel, which place tracking cookies to measure ad performance and enable retargeting. These services have their own opt-out mechanisms and privacy controls that work alongside your choices on our site.

Your Control Options

You have several ways to manage cookies on our site. The "Decline All Non-Essential Cookies" button at the top of this page is the quickest option – it immediately removes all tracking and marketing cookies while preserving the essential ones needed for basic site functionality.

Your web browser also provides cookie controls. Most modern browsers let you block cookies entirely, delete existing ones, or get notified before new ones are set. However, blocking all cookies might affect how our site works, particularly features like contact forms or client portal access.

For Google Analytics specifically, you can install their browser opt-out add-on, which prevents your data from being collected by Google Analytics across all websites you visit. This is a good option if you want to maintain functionality on individual sites while limiting overall tracking.

Your choice is remembered through a small cookie (ironic, we know) that tells our system to respect your preferences on future visits. If you clear all cookies from your browser, you'll need to set your preferences again the next time you visit our site.
