This page lists everything SEOScanPro stores in your browser and every cookie set on seoscanpro.ai. There are not many, and none of them are for advertising.
Signing in does not use a cookie
When you sign in, the app keeps a signed token in your browser’s local storage rather than in a cookie. It stays until you sign out, and signing out removes it. It is sent to our own API and nowhere else. Because it is not a cookie, it is never attached to a request to another site.
What we keep in local storage
- Your sign in token, so you do not have to sign in on every page. Removed when you sign out.
- Whether the sidebar is collapsed, so the interface looks the way you left it.
Clearing site data in your browser removes both. You will be signed out, which is the only effect.
Cookies on the public pages
The public pages carry Google Analytics 4 so we can see how many people visit and which pages they read. It reports in aggregate. It is not used to identify you, it is not connected to your SEOScanPro account, and we do not run any advertising or remarketing tag.
| Cookie | Set by | What it does | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics | Tells one visitor apart from another so a visit is not counted twice. | 2 years |
| _ga_YYRNEY1ZS4 | Google Analytics | Keeps the state of the current session for our property. | 2 years |
Google explains its own use of this data at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. You can switch it off for every site with Google’s opt out browser add on.
Fonts
Our typefaces are served from Google Fonts. That request tells Google your IP address and browser, which is how any file loaded from another domain works. It sets no cookie.
Banner links, which are not cookies
The banners in the app for our other products carry a click identifier and campaign tags in the link itself, so we can tell which banner led somebody to that product. It travels in the URL you click, not in a cookie, and it is not attached to you as a person. See the privacy policy for what is recorded.
What we do not do
- No advertising cookies, and no third party ad network on any page.
- No cross site tracking pixels, and no social network tracking tags.
- No selling or sharing of anything a cookie collects.
- No cookie that is required for the app to work, which is why there is no consent wall in front of the product.
Controlling cookies
Every browser lets you block or delete cookies in its settings, and it is your call. Blocking the analytics cookies has no effect on the product: nothing on SEOScanPro stops working, and we simply do not count the visit.
Changes
If we add anything that sets a cookie, it appears in the table above in the same change and the date at the top of the page moves.
Questions about any of this go to [email protected] or through the support page. A person reads every one.
