Cookie Policy
Effective date: 18 July 2026
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies StopBouncing uses, why, and what choices you have.
1. What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on your device when you visit. Cookies are widely used to make websites work or to provide information to the website owner.
2. Cookies we use
Strictly necessary — always active
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| __Secure-authjs.session-token | Keeps you logged in to your account. Contains a cryptographically signed session token. HttpOnly, Secure, SameSite=Lax. | 30 days (reset on login) |
This cookie is set only when you log in and is required for the Service to function. It cannot be disabled while you use a logged-in account.
Analytics — only with your consent
| Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Google Analytics 4 | Measures page views, traffic sources, and navigation patterns so we can improve the site. IP addresses are anonymised before being sent to Google. No advertising or cross-site tracking is enabled. | Up to 2 years (GA standard) |
Analytics cookies are only placed after you click “Accept analytics”in the consent banner shown on your first visit. If you choose “Essential only”, no analytics cookies are placed and Google Analytics does not load. Your choice is stored in your browser’s localStorage under the key sb_consent.
You can withdraw consent at any time by clearing the sb_consent entry from localStorage (browser developer tools → Application → Local Storage) or by contacting us.
3. We do NOT use
- Advertising or retargeting cookies (Meta Pixel, Google Ads, etc.)
- Third-party tracking or profiling cookies of any kind
- Cookies from social media platforms
4. Theme preference
Our dark/light mode toggle stores your preference in your browser’s localStorage, not in a cookie. This data stays on your device and is never transmitted to our servers.
5. Your consent choices
When you first visit our website, a banner asks whether you accept analytics cookies. You are never required to accept analytics cookies to use the site or the Service. The strictly necessary session cookie requires no separate consent under EU law (Directive 2002/58/EC, as amended) because it is essential for authentication.
6. How to control or delete cookies
You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Deleting the session cookie will log you out of StopBouncing. For browser-specific instructions, visit allaboutcookies.org.
7. Changes to this policy
We will update this policy if we introduce new cookies or change how existing ones work, and where required by law we will obtain fresh consent before placing new non-essential cookies.
