This Cookie Policy explains how CiteProof ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on citeproof.co (the "Service"). It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site function, remember your preferences, and understand how the site is used. We also use similar technologies such as local storage.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
Strictly necessary cookies. Required for the Service to function, such as keeping you signed in and securing your session. These cannot be disabled.
Functional cookies. Remember your preferences and settings to improve your experience.
Analytics. We use Plausible Analytics, a privacy-friendly analytics tool that does not use cookies and does not track you across sites.
We do not use advertising or third-party tracking cookies.
3. Cookies We Set
The Service uses the following:
| Cookie / storage | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Authentication / session token | Keeps you signed in and secures your session | Strictly necessary | Session |
| Locale preference | Remembers your language (IT/EN) | Functional | Persistent |
We also use local storage to remember whether you have used the free scan, so we can show you the appropriate experience. Plausible Analytics does not set any cookies, which is why it does not appear in the table above.
4. Managing Cookies
Most browsers let you control cookies through their settings — you can block or delete them. Note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent parts of the Service from working.
You can usually manage cookies here:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions
5. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version with a new "Last updated" date.
