Cookie Policy
Last updated: October 7, 2026
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to the site owners. This policy explains how Flagpool uses cookies across our website (flagpool.io) and dashboard application.
2. Cookies We Use
| Category | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Essential | Authentication session, CSRF protection, and security. Required for the dashboard to function. | Session / 1 year |
| Functional | Remembering your preferences such as selected project, environment, and UI settings. | 1 year |
| Analytics | Understanding how visitors interact with our website and measuring campaign performance. These cookies are enabled after you accept optional cookies or submit a valid registration form through our website. | Up to 2 years |
| Signup status | A boolean cookie named flagpool_has_signed_up records successful registration in this browser for future navigation personalization. It contains no account identifiers, does not indicate login status, and does not currently change navigation. | 6 months |
| Sign-in history | A boolean cookie named flagpool_has_signed_in remembers that this browser has signed in to the dashboard. It is shared across flagpool.io and its subdomains and remains after logout for future navigation personalization. It contains no account identifiers or authentication tokens, does not prove current login status, and changes the site header to show a Dashboard link instead of Sign in and Try for Free. | 6 months |
| Consent preference | Remembering whether you accepted or rejected optional cookies. | 6 months |
3. Flagpool SDKs & Cookies
The Flagpool SDKs do not set cookies in your end users' browsers. Flag configurations are cached using localStorage (not cookies) for offline resilience. Analytics data is sent as HTTP requests and does not involve cookies. No tracking cookies are placed on your end users through Flagpool.
4. Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the Service to function and cannot be disabled. They include authentication tokens that keep you logged into the Flagpool dashboard, and security cookies that protect against cross-site request forgery.
5. Analytics Cookies
We use Google Analytics to understand usage patterns such as pages visited, time on site, and traffic sources. We may also use this information to measure whether our advertising campaigns lead to registrations. We keep advertising personalization disabled through Google Consent Mode.
Accepting optional cookies enables analytics. Submitting a valid registration form through our website also enables analytics in that browser by setting the cookie preference to accepted, including when you previously rejected optional cookies. This applies to both standard and invitation registration, even if registration subsequently fails or requires email confirmation. You can reject optional cookies again at any time through Cookie Settings below.
6. Managing Cookies
Most browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically:
- View what cookies are stored and delete them individually
- Block third-party cookies
- Block cookies from specific sites
- Block all cookies
- Delete all cookies when you close your browser
Note that blocking essential cookies will prevent the Flagpool dashboard from functioning correctly.
You can change your choice for optional cookies at any time. Rejecting optional cookies stops future analytics storage and removes Google Analytics cookies that are accessible to this website.
7. Third-Party Cookies
We use third-party services that may set their own cookies in the following categories:
- Authentication providers — for secure session management and login
- Payment processors — for secure payment handling (only on billing and checkout pages)
- Analytics providers — for understanding Service usage and improving the user experience
Each provider operates under their own privacy policy. A current list of our sub-processors is available upon request at privacy@flagpool.io.
8. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date.
