Cookie Policy
Last updated: 15 March 2025
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, smartphone) when you visit a website. They help websites remember information about your visit, such as your preferred language and other settings. This can make your next visit easier and the site more useful to you.
CookieSeal is a cookie consent management platform that helps other websites manage their cookie compliance. This policy explains how we use cookies on our own website at cookieseal.com.
Our Cookie Philosophy
As a company that helps others manage cookies responsibly, we practice what we preach. We use minimal cookies on cookieseal.com — only what's essential for the website to function properly.
📊 We don't use analytics cookies on our own site. We don't use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or other tracking scripts. We believe in privacy by design.

📊 Analytics Cookies (Optional)
We don't currently use any analytics cookies on cookieseal.com. If we add analytics in the future, we will:
- Ask for your explicit consent first
- Use privacy-focused analytics that don't track across sites
- Allow you to opt-out at any time
- Update this policy to reflect the change

We do not use marketing or advertising cookies on cookieseal.com. We don't track you across other websites or show you targeted ads.

Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services, which may set their own cookies:
🛡️ Supabase (Authentication)
Our authentication is powered by Supabase, which sets session cookies to keep you logged in. These are essential for the service to work.

Managing Your Cookie Preferences
Browser Settings
You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling essential cookies may prevent parts of cookieseal.com from working properly.
Do Not Track
We respect the Do Not Track (DNT) browser setting. If your browser sends a DNT signal, we will not set any optional cookies.
CookieSeal for Other Websites
This policy covers only cookieseal.com. If you see a CookieSeal consent banner on another website, that site has its own cookie policy. The CookieSeal banner helps them comply with privacy laws, but their cookie practices are governed by their own policies.
💡 Using CookieSeal on your site? This policy is a template you can adapt. Make sure to customize it for your specific cookie usage and legal requirements.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable laws. When we make changes, we will:
