1. What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small piece of data stored in your browser by a website. ComplyEasy also uses localStorage, which behaves similarly. For simplicity, this policy refers to both as “cookies”.
2. Categories of cookies we use
Strictly necessary (always on)
These are required for the site to function — you can’t opt out of them without breaking things.
| Name | Purpose | Retention |
|---|---|---|
| Supabase auth session | Keeps you signed in | Session / up to 30 days |
complyeasy-cookie-consent | Remembers your cookie consent choice | Until you clear it |
| Admin gate session (admin routes only) | Protects the internal admin dashboard | Session |
Analytics (only after you accept)
We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how the product is used — which pages are visited, which features get used, and where things break. Analytics are only loaded after you click “Accept All” on the cookie banner. Until then, no GA script is loaded and no GA cookies are set.
| Name | Purpose | Retention |
|---|---|---|
_ga, _ga_<id> | Distinguish unique visitors (pseudonymously) for GA4 | Up to 14 months |
Google receives an IP address that is truncated by Google before storage. See Google’s Privacy Policy for details.
Advertising & tracking
We don’t use any. No ad-network cookies, no cross-site tracking pixels, no remarketing tags.
3. Managing your consent
When you first visit ComplyEasy you’ll see a cookie banner with two options:
- Accept All — enables the analytics cookies described above.
- Manage Preferences — stores a “custom” choice; no analytics cookies are set.
You can change your mind at any time by clicking the button below, which clears your saved choice and reloads the page so the banner reappears:
You can also block or delete cookies directly in your browser (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge all support this in their privacy settings). Blocking strictly-necessary cookies will prevent you from staying signed in.
