Transparent Cookie Usage
AppGuru uses essential cookies to ensure our high-performance UI and cost calculators function smoothly, along with privacy-preserving telemetry to monitor platform uptime.
What Are Cookies & Tracking Technologies?
Cookies are small alphanumeric text files stored on your computer, tablet, or smartphone when you visit web platforms. They allow web applications to recognize your browser, remember user preferences (such as cost calculator parameters and animations), and deliver optimized performance.
In addition to HTTP cookies, we may utilize related modern technologies such as localStorage, sessionStorage, and lightweight telemetry beacons.
Why We Use Cookies
We deploy cookies and local storage tokens for the following essential purposes:
- Core Platform Operations: Enabling rapid routing, interactive UI animations, and form validation.
- State Preservation: Temporarily saving your inputs in the App Cost Calculator so your estimates are not lost if you navigate away.
- Security & DDoS Mitigation: Identifying malicious request flooding, bot scripts, and preventing Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF).
- Performance Diagnostics: Measuring Core Web Vitals (LCP, FID, CLS, INP) to ensure 60 FPS fluidity on mobile devices.
