Cookie Policy

Last updated: July 7, 2026.

This Cookie Policy explains how Gruvvy ("Gruvvy," "we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on the Gruvvy music streaming and distribution platform, including our websites and applications (collectively, the "Service"). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy. Gruvvy does not sell your personal information, and we do not use cookies to sell your data to third parties.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website or use an application. They allow the Service to recognize your device, remember your preferences, keep you signed in, and understand how the Service is used. We also use similar technologies such as local storage, pixels, and software development kits, which we refer to collectively as "cookies" in this Policy.

2. Why we use cookies

We use cookies to:

keep you signed in and maintain the security of your session;
remember your settings and preferences, including regional and playback preferences;
enable core features such as streaming, playback, and account management;
measure listening activity and how the Service is used so we can operate and improve it; and
detect and prevent fraud, artificial streaming, and abuse.

We do not use cookies to sell your personal information, and we do not share cookie data with third parties for their own advertising purposes.

3. Types of cookies we use

Strictly necessary cookies. These are required for the Service to function. They keep you signed in, secure your session, remember consent choices, and enable core streaming and account features. The Service cannot operate properly without them.

Preference cookies. These remember your choices, such as language, regional settings, and playback preferences, so the Service works the way you expect.

Analytics and performance cookies. These help us understand how the Service is used, including which features and content are engaged with and how the platform performs, so we can improve reliability and experience. We use this information in aggregate to operate the Service and, where applicable, to support the accurate measurement of listening.

4. Third-party cookies

Some cookies may be set by service providers that help us operate the Service, such as our payment processor, hosting, content-delivery, and analytics providers. These providers act on our behalf and are not permitted to use the information to sell your data or to serve their own advertising. Payment and identity data handled by Stripe is processed under the Stripe Privacy Policy.

5. How long cookies last

Session cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser or app.
Persistent cookies remain on your device until they expire or you delete them, and are used to remember you and your preferences across visits.

6. Your choices

You can control and delete cookies through your browser or device settings, including blocking or removing cookies already stored. Because strictly necessary cookies are required for the Service to function, disabling them may prevent you from signing in or using core features such as playback. Where required by law, we will ask for your consent before using non-essential cookies and provide a way to manage your choices.

7. Changes to this Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. We will post the updated Policy with a new effective date and, where required, provide additional notice. Your continued use of the Service after the changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Policy.
