Cookie Policy
Effective Date: September 10, 2026 • Last Updated: September 10, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how F10P Inc. ("F10P", "we", "us", or "our") uses cookies, local storage, and related technologies on our website, applications, and reader (collectively, the "Platform").
We believe in radical transparency. Unlike ad-funded platforms, F10P does NOT use advertising cookies, marketing pixels, social tracking beacons, or cross-site tracking brokers. We use cookies solely to keep your account secure, power the reading experience, and—with your explicit permission—understand discovery trends via privacy-respecting analytics.
1. What Are Cookies and Local Storage?
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer or mobile device by websites that you visit. They are widely used to make websites work properly, ensure security, and provide reporting information.
- Session Cookies: Temporary cookies that expire and are automatically erased when you close your web browser.
- Persistent Cookies: Cookies that remain stored on your device until they reach their configured expiration date or until you manually delete them.
- Local Storage: HTML5 browser web storage (such as
localStorage) that allows websites to store key-value data locally in your browser with no expiration date, unless cleared by you or through our settings controls.
2. Categories of Cookies We Use
We classify all cookies and storage keys used on F10P into two categories:
A. Strictly Necessary Cookies (Essential)
These cookies and storage items are vital for the technical operation of the Platform. They enable core functions such as user authentication, session security, protection against Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks, and remembering your chosen interface theme (Auto, Light, or Dark) and cookie consent status.
Under applicable privacy laws (including the EU ePrivacy Directive and GDPR Article 6(1)(f)), strictly necessary cookies do not require prior consent because the Platform cannot function safely and properly without them.
B. Analytics & Performance Cookies (Optional & Consent-Governed)
With your permission, we use Google Analytics (operating via Google Consent Mode v2) to understand how readers discover screenplays, which genres are trending, and overall platform performance.
Analytics cookies are disabled by default. They are set only if you explicitly click "Accept all" on our cookie consent banner. If you choose to decline or ignore the banner, analytics cookies are blocked, and only cookieless operational pings are sent in compliance with global privacy standards.
