Cookie policy

Needed for the site to work

• latinhood_session: keeps you signed in (30 days). Secure and not readable by scripts.
• latinhood_token: a backup copy of the sign-in token, used where the main cookie is blocked (30 days).
• lh_google_oauth: protects “Continue with Google” sign-in against forgery (10 minutes).
• lh_anon: lets you save places on this browser without an account (1 year). When you sign in, the places saved this way move into your account.

Your preferences

• lang: English or Spanish (1 year). It follows the language of the last page you read (Spanish pages live under /es), so your account pages match it.
• lh_lang_hint (session storage): that you closed the “Ver en español” suggestion on the home page, until you close the tab.
• lh_state and lh_city: the state and city you chose with the 📍 location button, so pages show what's near you (1 year). If you tap “Use my location”, your coordinates stay in your browser's local storage: we use them once to find your nearest city and suburb and never store them. Signed in, your chosen city (never your coordinates) is also saved to your account so it follows you on every device; local storage remembers which account it was saved to (latinhood_location_account), and the place you chose last on this device is the one kept.
• lh_redesign: whether you're seeing the new Latinhood while we test it.
• Your browser's local storage also keeps recently viewed items, your guide checklist before you sign in, and a referral code if you arrived through a friend's invite link.
• Plans you save with “Build your night” stay in your browser's local storage (lh_plans_v1), with whether you hid today's plan bar or the Friday “Plans for tonight?” reminder. If you sign in, they move to your account (so they follow you to other devices) and are cleared from the browser; signed out, they stay only in the browser.
• Local storage also remembers which celebrations you have already seen (a new stamp, your first deal, a complete business page, the one-time “find it in Saved” tip), so each plays only once.

Analytics

• PostHog (EU servers) stores an anonymous visitor id in your browser's local storage, not in a cookie. If you're signed in, your name and email are attached so we can help you and contact you about your account.
• Our own first-party statistics use lh_vid (local storage) and lh_sid (session storage, cleared when you close the tab).
• Google Analytics may set its _ga cookies to count page views.
• Vercel Speed Insights measures page speed without cookies.

Advertising (only if you allow it)

• lh_consent: your answer to the ad cookie question (1 year).
• lh_attrib: the campaign link you arrived from (utm tags, Meta or Google click id) and the first page you opened (90 days). First-party: it stays with Latinhood, and is saved on your account when you join so we know which campaign worked.
• lh_px (10 minutes) and lh_px_done (session storage): hand a just-finished sign-up, purchase, business or deal over to the Meta Pixel with the same id our server used, so Meta counts it once. Only with your OK.
• Meta Pixel (_fbp, _fbc, only with your OK): Meta's cookies to measure our ads on Facebook and Instagram (90 days), under Meta's privacy policy.
• Google Ads (_gcl_au, only with your OK, once we run Google ads): the same for Google.
