Cookie Policy

Effective date: March 20, 2026

5.1 Overview

Factiator uses cookies for essential functionality and, on the Free tier, for advertising. We obtain your consent before setting any non-essential cookies via our cookie consent banner.

5.2 Cookies We Use

Essential cookies (strictly necessary — no consent required)

• Authentication session cookie: maintains your logged-in state. Duration: session / up to 30 days if 'remember me' is selected.
• CSRF protection token: prevents cross-site request forgery. Session duration only.
• Cookie consent preference: stores your consent decision. Duration: 12 months.

Advertising cookies (Free tier only — consent required)

On the Free tier, Factiator displays personalised advertisements via Google AdSense. With your consent, Google AdSense sets advertising cookies to deliver relevant ads based on your interests and browsing behaviour. These cookies are managed by Google under their own Cookie Policy.

• Google AdSense cookies: used for ad personalisation, frequency capping, and conversion measurement
• Duration: varies by cookie, typically 13 months
• You may withdraw consent at any time via the cookie settings link in the footer

Upgrading to a paid tier removes all advertising and associated advertising cookies.

Analytics (no cookies)

Factiator uses Cloudflare Web Analytics, which is fully cookie-free and does not track individual users. No consent is required.

Payment processing

Stripe may set cookies during the payment process. These are governed by Stripe's own Cookie Policy.

5.3 Cookie Consent and Management

When you first visit Factiator, a cookie consent banner is displayed. You may accept all cookies, accept essential cookies only, or customise your preferences. You can change your preferences at any time via the cookie settings link in the footer.

To manage cookies via your browser, consult your browser's help documentation. Note that disabling essential cookies will prevent login functionality.

5.4 Changes

If we introduce new cookies, we will update this policy and seek consent where required.
