Cookie Policy

Last updated: April 30, 2026

1. What this policy covers

This Cookie Policy explains how Pointerly uses cookies, local storage, session storage, pixels, tags, SDKs, and similar technologies on our websites and applications. These technologies help us provide secure login, remember preferences, measure product usage, improve performance, and honor your privacy choices.

2. Cookie categories we use

Strictly necessary

These technologies are required for Pointerly to work. They support authentication, secure sessions, fraud prevention, CSRF protection, load balancing, cookie consent storage, team access, billing flows, and account security. They cannot be disabled through our preference center.

Typical duration: Session-based, a few hours, or up to the period needed to keep you signed in and protect the service.

Functional

These technologies remember product preferences such as theme, layout, language, workspace context, dismissed notices, saved filters, and cookie preferences. If disabled, some settings may reset between visits.

Typical duration: Until expiry, account update, preference change, or browser storage deletion.

Analytics and performance

With consent where required, we use analytics and performance tools to understand page views, feature usage, navigation patterns, errors, conversions, and aggregate product performance. We use this to improve Pointerly and diagnose issues. We do not use this category to sell personal data.

Typical duration: Session-based up to two years, depending on provider settings.

Authentication and connected services

When you sign in or connect a third-party account, providers such as Google, Facebook, Meta, Amazon, Stripe, or other services may set their own cookies or use their own tracking technologies during authentication, authorization, fraud prevention, payment, or consent flows. Those technologies are governed by the provider's policies.

Advertising cookies

Pointerly does not use third-party advertising cookies on our marketing pages to sell personal data or build cross-site advertising profiles. If this changes, we will update this policy and request consent where required.

3. Examples of technologies

Depending on your region, plan, consent choices, and product usage, Pointerly may use:

  • Session cookies for authentication and secure access.
  • Local storage or session storage for theme, consent, editor, workspace, and dashboard preferences.
  • Security and fraud-prevention cookies used by authentication, infrastructure, payment, or abuse-prevention providers.
  • Analytics tools such as Google Analytics or Microsoft Clarity where enabled and consented to where required.
  • OAuth, payment, and connected-account provider cookies when you interact with those providers.

4. Third-party providers

Third-party providers may process cookie or device information according to their own policies when you interact with their services. Relevant provider policies may include:

5. How to manage cookies

You can manage non-essential cookies and similar technologies in the following ways:

Preference Center

Update your Pointerly cookie preferences at any time.

Browser settings

Most browsers let you block, delete, or limit cookies and site storage. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent login, checkout, dashboard, or security features from working.

Provider controls

Some providers offer their own opt-out or preference controls. Those controls apply to the provider and may not change strictly necessary Pointerly cookies.

6. Do Not Track and global privacy controls

Some browsers send Do Not Track or global privacy control signals. Pointerly honors legally required opt-out signals where applicable and technically feasible. Because these signals are not uniform across all browsers and jurisdictions, you should also use our Cookie Preference Center for Pointerly-specific choices.

7. Relationship to Privacy Policy

For more information about how we collect, use, share, retain, and protect data, see our Privacy Policy.

8. Updates

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect product, provider, legal, or technical changes. We will update the date above and request consent again where required.
