Cookie Policy

How Promptly uses cookies and similar technologies.

Last updated: September 5, 2026

Necessary Cookies

Required for core functionality, security, and authentication.

Local Storage (Preferences)

Used to remember UI choices (like Dark Mode) without relying on cookies.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognize your device and remember certain information about your session and preferences.

In addition to traditional cookies, modern websites also use related technologies like Local Storage and Session Storage, which serve a similar purpose but store data directly in your browser rather than sending it back and forth with every request.

2. How We Use Cookies

Promptly uses a minimal approach to cookies. We only use strictly necessary, first-party cookies required to operate the platform securely.

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the platform to function properly. We use them to:

  • Maintain your active session on the server.
  • Protect forms and requests against Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks.
  • Authenticate your account if you are logged in, ensuring you stay signed in securely as you navigate between pages.

No Advertising or Third-Party Analytics Cookies

We value your privacy. As of our current implementation, Promptly does not use intrusive third-party advertising tracking scripts or persistent third-party analytics cookies (such as Google Analytics or Meta Pixel).

3. Cookie Details

Below is a breakdown of the actual cookies set by our platform:

Cookie Name Purpose Duration
laravel_session Associates your browser with your temporary server-side session. Session-based
XSRF-TOKEN Security token used to verify that internal requests are legitimate (CSRF protection). Session-based
remember_web_* Stores a secure authentication token if you select "Remember Me" during login. Depends on config

4. Local Storage and Similar Technologies

Instead of relying on cookies for UI preferences, Promptly utilizes your browser's Local Storage. This data remains on your device and is not automatically transmitted to our servers with every request.

We use Local Storage for:

  • UI Theme (theme): Remembering whether you prefer Light Mode or Dark Mode.
  • Interaction Data (promptly_prefs): Keeping track of UI elements you have dismissed or categories you have engaged with, to provide a smoother, personalized browsing experience.

5. Managing Cookies

You have the right to manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, block, or delete cookies altogether.

Important Note

Because Promptly only uses strictly necessary session and security cookies, disabling all cookies in your browser will prevent you from logging in, submitting forms, or securely using platform features.

6. Contact & Legal Context

This Cookie Policy is part of our broader commitment to your privacy. Please read our Privacy Policy to understand how we process personal data, and our Terms of Service for the rules governing platform usage.

We may update this policy when our technology stack or third-party service usage changes.
