This Cookie Policy explains how GigFlow (GigFlow Tax Tracker Limited) uses cookies on our website. We use cookies to improve your browsing experience and provide essential functionality for tracking your side hustle revenue and managing your cash flow as a freelancer in Calgary.

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our website. They help us remember your preferences, understand how you use our platform, and enhance your experience. Cookies can be either session-based (temporary) or persistent (lasting until expiration or deletion). We use cookies to support the core functionality of our revenue tracking and tax planning tools, ensuring your freelance financial data is properly managed across your sessions.

Types of Cookies We Use

We use several categories of cookies to serve you effectively:

Essential Cookies: These are necessary for basic website functionality, user authentication, and security. Without them, our cash flow tracking features and tax calculation tools would not work properly.
Performance Cookies: We use these to understand how you interact with our platform, which pages you visit most frequently, and how we can optimize our services for freelancers and gig workers.
Functional Cookies: These remember your preferences and settings, such as your location (Calgary), currency preferences, and saved templates for tracking your income streams.
Analytical Cookies: We use these to gather statistics about website usage and performance, helping us improve our revenue tracking and financial planning features.

Why We Use Cookies

We rely on cookies to deliver the best possible experience for managing your gig economy income. They allow us to maintain your login session, save your cash flow preferences, and track your progress with tax set-asides. Cookies help us identify which features of our platform are most valuable to you—whether that's our income tracker, tax planning tools, or cash flow forecasting. Additionally, we use cookies to prevent fraud, enhance security, and comply with legal requirements. Without cookies, we cannot provide the personalized, seamless experience that helps Calgary gig workers manage their finances effectively.
