2.2 Analytics cookies (consent required)
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors find us and to improve the website. It loads only if you accept, on the website (timeblu.com) and during sign-up in the web application (app.timeblu.com), including the first page after you confirm your email. It does not load during normal use of your account or in the mobile application.

_ga | Distinguishes unique visitors | 2 years | Google Analytics |
_ga_* | Maintains session state | 2 years | Google Analytics |
Information collected: pages visited and time on each, source of the visit (direct, search engine, ad, social networks), device and browser, approximate location (country/city) and interactions with the page.
2.3 Advertising cookies (consent required)
We use Google Ads to know which ads bring new sign-ups and to optimize our campaigns (conversion measurement). It loads only if you accept and in the same places as Google Analytics: the website and sign-up in the web application. It does not load during normal use of your account or in the mobile application, and we do not use it to show you personalized advertising on other sites.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration | Provider |
|---|---|---|---|
_gcl_au | Measures the conversions of our ads | 90 days | Google Ads |

Data transfer (2.2 and 2.3): Google may process this data in the United States. Google LLC is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. More information: Google Privacy Policy.
Legal basis (2.2 and 2.3): Consent (Art. 6.1.a GDPR and Art. 22.2 LSSI).
2.4 Mobile Application
The mobile application only uses technical and preference cookies (section 2.1). It includes no Google Analytics, Google Ads or any other analytics or advertising tool, which is why it shows no cookie notice.
3. HOW TO MANAGE YOUR COOKIE PREFERENCES?
3.1 Cookie notice
The first time you visit the website, or sign-up in the web application, you will see a notice where you can:
- Accept: turns on Google's analytics and advertising cookies
- Decline: only technical and preference cookies are used
Your decision applies to timeblu.com and app.timeblu.com: if you already answered on one, we do not ask again on the other.
You can change your mind at any time with the "Cookie settings" link in the website footer. If you withdraw your consent, we delete Google's cookies from your browser.
3.2 Browser Settings
You can also manage or delete cookies through your browser settings:
Chrome: Settings > Privacy and security > Cookies and other site data
Firefox: Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
Safari: Settings > Privacy > Manage Website Data
Edge: Settings > Privacy, search, and services > Cookies and site data
Note: If you disable technical cookies, some features of the service may not work properly (for example, you won't be able to stay signed in).
3.3 Private Browsing
You can use your browser's private/incognito mode, which deletes cookies when you close the window.
4. THIRD-PARTY CONTENT
The businesses' booking pages (booking.timeblu.com) may show a Google Maps map with the business's address. The map is served by Google, which receives the IP address of the person viewing it and may use its own cookies under its privacy policy. We have no control over these cookies.
That is why the map does not load until you tap "Show map". We remember that decision in your browser's local storage (tb_maps_consent), for every booking page, and you can withdraw it at any time with "Hide map", below the map. The "Get directions" link opens Google Maps in another tab and loads nothing of Google's on the page.
Legal basis: Consent (Art. 6.1.a GDPR and Art. 22.2 LSSI).
