1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your browser or device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your preferences and understand how you interact with our pages. CertifiedPayrollPro uses cookies to keep you signed in, remember your settings, and improve your experience.

2. Types of Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies

These cookies are required for the core functionality of CertifiedPayrollPro. They handle authentication (keeping you signed in), security protections (CSRF tokens), and session management. Without these cookies, you would not be able to log in or use the application. Essential cookies cannot be disabled.

Preference Cookies

These cookies remember your settings and choices, such as your preferred language, theme, and display preferences. They help us provide a more personalized experience so you don't need to reconfigure these options each time you visit.

Analytics Cookies

If you consent, we use privacy-friendly analytics (Vercel Web Analytics) to understand how visitors use our site. This helps us identify which features are most useful and where we can improve. Our analytics solution does not use cookies for cross-site tracking and does not collect personally identifiable information. Analytics data is aggregated and anonymous.

3. Third-Party Cookies

We minimize the use of third-party cookies. The primary third-party services that may set cookies are:

  • Stripe — for secure payment processing on our pricing and checkout pages
  • Cloudflare Turnstile — for bot protection on forms (uses a non-tracking challenge token)

We do not allow advertising networks or social media trackers to place cookies on our site.

4. How to Manage Cookies

You can control and manage cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:

  • View what cookies are stored and delete them individually
  • Block third-party cookies
  • Block cookies from specific sites
  • Block all cookies
  • Delete all cookies when you close your browser

Please note that blocking essential cookies will prevent you from signing in and using CertifiedPayrollPro. If you block preference cookies, you may need to re-enter your settings each session.

5. Cookie Retention

Essential and preference cookies are retained for the duration of your session or up to 30 days for persistent login. Analytics data is retained in aggregate form and does not contain information that can identify individual users.

6. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable regulations. We will post the updated policy on this page with a revised “Last updated” date.
