Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how MilitaryOnlineDating, a relationship-focused military dating site, uses cookies and similar technologies. We keep tracking to a minimum, we never sell your data, and we take the privacy of service members and veterans seriously.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device when you visit. They help our military dating site remember your preferences, keep you signed in securely, and understand how the platform is used so we can improve it. Cookies cannot run programs or carry viruses, and the ones we set are tied only to your session and account settings.
Similar technologies - such as local storage and pixels - work in comparable ways. Throughout this policy, the word "cookies" covers all of these small storage and measurement tools.
Types of Cookies We Use
We use three categories of cookies, each with a distinct purpose. We deliberately avoid intrusive advertising trackers because our members value discretion.
Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the site to function. They enable secure sign-in, keep your session active while you browse verified profiles, remember your theme choice (light or dark), and protect against fraudulent activity. Because the platform cannot work safely without them, necessary cookies cannot be switched off through our site.
Analytical Cookies
Analytical cookies help us understand how members use the platform - which pages load, where people drop off, and how features perform. This information is aggregated and used only to improve the experience. We do not use it to build advertising profiles of individual service members.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies remember choices you make to give you a smoother experience, such as saved search filters by branch or rank, language preferences, and recently viewed profiles. Disabling them will not break the site, but some conveniences may reset between visits.
How to Manage Your Cookies
You are always in control of cookies. Most browsers let you review, limit, or delete them at any time. Use the steps below to manage cookies on this military dating site and across the web.
- Browser settings: Open your browser's privacy or security settings to block or delete cookies. Look under Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or Edge preferences for "Cookies and site data."
- Private browsing: Use an incognito or private window to prevent cookies from persisting after you close the session - a helpful option for members who share a device.
- Clear on exit: Set your browser to clear cookies each time you close it for an extra layer of discretion.
- Do Not Track: Enable the Do Not Track signal in your browser; we honor reasonable privacy signals wherever we can.
Please note that blocking necessary cookies may prevent you from signing in or using core features such as verified messaging.
Third-Party Cookies
Some limited services we rely on - such as privacy-respecting analytics and secure infrastructure providers - may set their own cookies to deliver their functions. We choose partners carefully and do not permit them to sell your data or use it for unrelated advertising. Where a third party sets a cookie, it is governed by that provider's own privacy terms in addition to ours.
Cookies, Privacy and Military OPSEC
We know some active duty members and those with security clearances worry about leaving a digital trail. That is why we keep tracking minimal, never sell member data, and support discreet browsing. You can use private profiles, selective visibility, and a browser's private mode to protect operational security. For the full picture of how we handle your information, read our Privacy Policy and our safety tips for military singles.
Updates to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, law, or how our military dating site operates. When we make material changes, we will revise the "Last updated" date above and, where appropriate, notify members. Continued use of the platform after an update means you accept the revised policy. For related terms, see our Terms & Conditions.
