Privacy Policy: What Candy Ai Shorts Explained Stores and Why

Effective date: September 23, 2026.

Here is how Candy Ai Shorts Explained, the site at candy-ai-shorts.co, deals with information about its readers. The operator is the site’s publisher, referred to below as “we” or “the site”, and can be contacted at contact@candy-ai-shorts.co or via the contact page.

Summary in four points

• No accounts exist. Reading any guide requires no name, no email address and no payment details.
• Google Analytics 4 is loaded only once you have pressed “Accept” on the analytics banner. Pressing “Decline”, or doing nothing, keeps every analytics script off the page.
• Your browser holds two small flags, the 18+ confirmation and the analytics answer, along with some sidebar layout preferences.
• Personal information is never sold, no ad networks run here, and no Candy AI or Candy Shorts video is hosted on this site.

What is stored in your browser

As an age-restricted publication, the site has to carry a few of your choices from one page load to the next. They live in localStorage, and the two flags are mirrored in a first-party cookie. None of these values can identify you.

You can remove any of these entries at any time via the site-data settings of your browser; on your next visit the age check and the analytics banner will show again.

Analytics, only with your consent

Pressing “Accept” loads Google Analytics 4, which is provided by Google LLC (Google Ireland Limited when the visitor is in the European Economic Area). It records the pages opened, a rough region worked out from a truncated IP address, the referring site, and the device and browser family. While analytics are active, pressing a “Watch on Candy AI” button is additionally recorded as an event carrying the button name and the page, without any identifier for you. IP anonymization is switched on, advertising storage remains denied, and the data carries no user identifiers. Google’s cookies can persist for up to two years in this configuration; Google’s own privacy policy describes how Google handles the data.

Pressing “Decline”, or ignoring the banner, means no analytics script is loaded and nothing is sent to Google. To change your answer later, use the footer’s “Cookie settings” link, which clears the stored choice and shows the banner again.

Server logs kept by our host

Our hosting provider may retain routine technical logs containing the requesting IP address, the URL, the user-agent string and a timestamp. They exist for error diagnosis and security monitoring, are kept only briefly, and are not merged with other records or used to single out individual readers.

If you write to us

An email to contact@ or dmca@candy-ai-shorts.co places your address and your message in our inbox. We use both only to answer you and to retain a record of the exchange. Takedown notices are kept for as long as is reasonably needed to document how the claim was handled. The procedure itself is set out on the DMCA and contact page.

Lawful grounds for EEA and UK visitors

• The 18+ flag, the consent flag and the interface preferences: a legitimate interest on our part in operating a publication on an adult topic, together with the legal duties that come with it.
• Analytics: consent, revocable at any time as explained above.
• Correspondence: our legitimate interest and, when a notice or complaint is involved, compliance with a legal obligation.

Rights you can exercise

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, erase or restrict personal data concerning you, to object to certain kinds of processing, to obtain a portable copy, and to lodge a complaint with a data-protection authority. Because the site retains almost nothing about any individual reader, clearing your site data fulfils most of these rights on the spot; for anything concerning email correspondence, contact us.

California residents: we neither sell nor share personal information within the meaning of the CCPA and CPRA, nor do we collect or use any sensitive personal information in the sense those laws give the term.

Transfers outside your country

Should you opt in to analytics, Google may handle the resulting data outside your country, including in the United States, relying on standard contractual clauses and, where applicable, on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.

Readers under 18

The site addresses an adult subject for readers who are 18 or older; it is not directed at anyone younger. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you believe a person under 18 has provided us with information, let us know and we will delete it. The platform’s own age requirements are covered in our Candy AI safety guide.

Outbound links

Our guides link out, chiefly to Candy.ai and CandyShorts, the official websites, and some of these are affiliate links, which can earn us a commission without changing what you pay. External websites apply their own cookies and privacy rules, none of which this document governs. If you subscribe, your payment details are handled by the platform, not by this site; the plans are summarized in our Candy AI pricing guide.

Updates to this policy

This policy may be amended if the site, our tooling or the law that applies to us changes. The version in force is the one dated at the top, and substantive changes will be noted on this page. The terms of service set out the rules for using the site.
