Cookie Policy

Last updated: 16 May 2026

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website. This policy explains what cookies WebScanify uses, what they do, and how you can control them.

1. What Are Cookies?

When you visit webscanify.com, your browser may store small files called cookies. Some are strictly necessary for the site to work; others help us improve your experience or understand how the site is used.

WebScanify uses first-party cookies (set by our domain) for authentication and security, alongside essential service cookies from our payment processors (Razorpay, PayPal) and measurement cookies from Google Tag Manager and Google Ads to understand site performance and conversion efficacy.

2. Cookies We Use

`session`	Essential	Maintains your logged-in session. Required for authentication.	Session (cleared on browser close)
`csrf_token`	Essential	Prevents Cross-Site Request Forgery attacks on forms and API calls.	Session
`remember_token`	Functional	Remembers your login across browser restarts if you choose "Remember me".	30 days

We use Google Tag Manager and Google Ads for campaign conversion measurement and traffic analytics. We do not sell personal data to third parties or participate in cross-site data broker exchanges.

3. Legal Basis for Cookies

Essential cookies (session, csrf_token): These are strictly necessary for the service to function and are set without consent under legitimate interest.
Functional cookies (remember_token, theme_pref): These improve your experience. They are set based on your explicit action (e.g., ticking "Remember me") or continued use. You may opt out without losing core functionality.
Measurement cookies (Google Ads, Google Tag Manager): Used to measure conversion effectiveness and visitor metrics. You can opt out at any time by selecting "Essential Only" on our cookie banner or using Google Ads settings.

4. Managing & Disabling Cookies

You can control cookies through your browser settings:

Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
Firefox: Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions

Blocking essential cookies will prevent you from logging in and using the Service. Blocking functional cookies will mean preferences (such as "Remember me") are not saved between sessions.

You can also delete all cookies set by WebScanify by clearing cookies for the webscanify.com domain in your browser settings.

5. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy if we add new features or change the cookies we use. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page will reflect the latest revision. Material changes will be communicated to registered users by email.
