Cookie Policy

Last updated: 11 June 2026 · Applies to ouridea.ai, app.ouridea.ai and all OurIdea.ai products

This policy explains what cookies and similar technologies (such as local storage) we use, why we use them, and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They're used to make sites work, remember your preferences, and understand how the site is used. "Similar technologies" includes browser local storage, which we use within the abi. app to remember settings such as light/dark mode.

2. Cookies we use

We do not use third-party advertising cookies, and we do not sell or share cookie data with advertisers.

3. Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are essential for the website and app to function — for example, keeping you logged in or remembering that you've responded to the cookie banner. Because they're essential, they can't be switched off, and under PECR they don't require consent.

4. Analytics cookies

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use our marketing site (ouridea.ai), so we can improve it. GA4 cookies are only set if you accept analytics cookies via the banner. You can withdraw consent at any time using the "Cookie preferences" link in the footer.

5. Managing cookies

You can control cookies via:

• The cookie banner shown on your first visit (and the "Cookie preferences" link in the footer thereafter).
• Your browser settings — most browsers let you block or delete cookies; see your browser's help pages for instructions.

Note: blocking strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from logging in to the abi. platform.

6. Cookie consent banner — implementation

The snippet below implements a lightweight, PECR/GDPR-compliant cookie banner. Non-essential (analytics) scripts should only load after consent is granted. Add this snippet before the closing </body> tag on every marketing page (home, launchpad, signal, platform, pulse), and gate the GA4 script tag using cookieConsent.allowAnalytics() as shown.

<!-- Cookie consent banner -->
<div id="cookie-banner">
  <p>We use essential cookies to run this site, and (with your consent) analytics
  cookies to understand how it's used. See our
  <a href="/legal/cookies.html">Cookie Policy</a> for details.</p>
  <div class="row">
    <button class="btn btn-primary" onclick="cookieConsent.set('all')">Accept all</button>
    <button class="btn btn-outline" onclick="cookieConsent.set('necessary')">Necessary only</button>
  </div>
</div>

<script>
const cookieConsent = {
  key: 'cookie_consent',
  get(){ return localStorage.getItem(this.key); },
  set(value){
    localStorage.setItem(this.key, value);
    localStorage.setItem(this.key + '_ts', Date.now());
    document.getElementById('cookie-banner').classList.remove('show');
    if(value === 'all') cookieConsent.loadAnalytics();
  },
  allowAnalytics(){ return this.get() === 'all'; },
  loadAnalytics(){
    if(window.gaLoaded) return;
    window.gaLoaded = true;
    const s = document.createElement('script');
    s.src = 'https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=G-XXXXXXX'; // TODO: replace with real GA4 ID
    s.async = true;
    document.head.appendChild(s);
    window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
    function gtag(){ dataLayer.push(arguments); }
    gtag('js', new Date());
    gtag('config', 'G-XXXXXXX');
  },
  init(){
    const stored = this.get();
    const ts = parseInt(localStorage.getItem(this.key + '_ts') || '0', 10);
    const expired = Date.now() - ts > 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24 * 365; // 12 months
    if(!stored || expired){
      document.getElementById('cookie-banner').classList.add('show');
    } else if(stored === 'all'){
      this.loadAnalytics();
    }
  }
};
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => cookieConsent.init());
</script>

To add a footer "Cookie preferences" link that re-opens the banner, add: <a href="#" onclick="document.getElementById('cookie-banner').classList.add('show');return false">Cookie preferences</a>
