Cookie Policy

Cookies

Small text files a website asks your browser to store. First-party cookies are set on Prooflin’s own domain. Third-party cookies are set on another company’s domain.

Local and session storage

Browser storage that a website can use to remember information on your device, either until you clear it or until you close the tab.

Pixels and tags

Small pieces of code, or tiny images, that send information to a provider when a page loads or when you take an action, such as starting a sign-up.

Similar technologies

Scripts that record how visitors interact with a page, such as session recording, and other tools that work in a comparable way.

In this policy we call all of these “technologies”. Some last only for your browser session; others remain for a set period unless you delete them.

We group technologies into four categories. Strictly necessary technologies are always active. The three optional categories start off, and we use them only if you turn them on.

1. 1. Strictly necessaryAlways activeNeeded to provide the website and service you request: signing you in and keeping your session secure, protecting against fraud and misuse, keeping the service working as you move between pages, remembering the Workspace you are working in where that is needed, and remembering your cookie choices. You can block these in your browser, but parts of the service, such as signing in, will then not work.
2. 2. FunctionalOff until you turn it onRemember optional conveniences beyond what the service needs to work, such as the sign-in method you last used, so the sign-in page can suggest it.
3. 3. AnalyticsOff until you turn it onMeasure how the website is used, such as which pages are visited, where visitors come from, and how they move through the site, and, where permitted, analyze how visitors interact with marketing pages.
4. 4. AdvertisingOff until you turn it onAttribute visits and sign-ups to our ads, measure conversions, show our ads to people who have visited our website (remarketing), and let advertising providers recognize your browser for those purposes.

Google Tag Manager is a tool for delivering tags. Using it does not make the tags it delivers strictly necessary or exempt them from their category: each tag runs only when the category it belongs to is allowed.

Where enabled, and subject to your choices, we use the following optional services. A service being listed here does not mean it is active on every page, that it loads on every visit, or that it places cookies each time. None of them runs before you allow its category.

4.1 Session recording with Microsoft Clarity

Where Clarity runs, it records interactions such as clicks, scrolling, and pointer movement on our marketing pages and lets us replay them as session recordings and view them as heatmaps. The pages and content listed in section 6 are excluded from it. Microsoft may use information collected through Clarity for its own purposes, which can include advertising. For that reason, Clarity runs only when you allow both Analytics and Advertising.

4.2 Adding or changing providers

This list is limited to the services above. Your choices don’t extend to other advertising or analytics providers. Before we add a provider, or use a listed one for a materially different purpose, we will update this policy and the cookie controls and, where required, ask for your consent again.

The first four entries are Prooflin’s own. The rest are the main first-party cookies the optional providers document for their services, shown only to the extent they apply to how we use those services.

For the optional providers, the durations shown are each provider’s documented defaults at this policy’s effective date, not lifetimes Prooflin has chosen. If we configure a different lifetime, we will show it here. Browsers can shorten these lifetimes, and providers can change them, so the providers’ current cookie information, linked in section 4, is the authoritative source.

Providers may also use cookies on their own domains, and they can vary the technologies they use. This table doesn’t show the values stored in any cookie, and it isn’t an exhaustive list of every technology a provider may use.

These rules apply to every optional technology we use:

• Optional technologies do not run before you allow the category they belong to.
• If you decline, the website, your account, and our legal and contact pages keep working.
• Private uploads, report contents, account and Workspace screens, billing details, sign-in screens, and the contents of contact messages are excluded from marketing tracking and session recording.
• We don’t send email addresses, phone numbers, free-text messages, report data, or confidential URL parameters to advertising providers.
• Your choices here don’t authorize uploading customer lists to advertising providers or enhanced matching, and we don’t do either on the basis of this policy.
• If we send measurement events from our own servers (server-side tracking), the same choices apply.
• We don’t infer consent from scrolling, from continuing to browse, or from accepting our Terms of Service.
• A new provider, or a materially different purpose for a listed one, requires an updated disclosure and fresh consent where the law requires it.

On your first visit, we ask for your choice with Accept All, Reject Optional, and Manage Preferences. Rejecting is as easy as accepting, nothing optional is preselected, and you can use the website without choosing.

• You can change your choices at any time with Cookie Settings, here or in the footer of every page. Your Privacy Choices opens the same controls with Advertising in view.
• We store your choices in the prooflin_consent_v1 cookie for up to 180 days. Your choices apply to the browser and device you make them on. After 180 days, or if you delete your cookies, we ask again.
• Withdrawing consent stops the optional collection, recording, and event sending that choice controls as soon as you save it, including in technologies already running on the page. It doesn’t make processing that took place lawfully before then unlawful.
• Where the law requires, we delete information that relied on your consent and tell the relevant providers. You don’t need to make a separate request for this. Deletion follows our ordinary processes, so not every earlier copy disappears instantly. You can still contact us about information collected before you withdrew.
• When you withdraw consent, we can remove optional cookies set on Prooflin’s own domain, but we can’t delete cookies that other providers set on their own domains. You can delete those in your browser.
• If your browser blocks storage, we can’t save your choice. Optional categories then stay off, and we ask again on your next visit.
• If saving a change fails, optional technologies are switched off for the rest of your visit, whatever you chose before. We try to remove any earlier saved choice. If that isn’t possible, we tell you that the earlier choice may apply again on a later visit.

Most browsers let you view, delete, and block cookies, including blocking third-party cookies, and many limit how long some cookies last. Blocking strictly necessary cookies can stop sign-in and other parts of the service from working.

We honor recognized opt-out preference signals where the law requires. When your browser sends Global Privacy Control, we treat it as a request to opt out of the sale and sharing of personal information for advertising in that browser: Advertising stays off, and Accept All doesn’t turn it on. We don’t promise to recognize every browser setting or signal.

We update this policy when the technologies we use, or their purposes, change. The effective date at the top of this page shows when the current version took effect.

If we make a material change, we will ordinarily give at least 30 days’ notice before it takes effect, by email to account holders, in the service, or on our website, unless a change is needed urgently for legal, fraud-prevention, or security reasons. A new optional technology, or a new purpose that needs your consent, is not used until you have given that consent.
