What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites function properly, remember preferences, and understand how visitors interact with pages. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, and pixel tags, which we reference collectively as cookies in this policy where applicable.
How We Use Cookies
Sproutyouth uses cookies for the following purposes related to our habit plan website and services:
