Cookie Policy

Effective Date: April 15, 2026  |  Last Updated: April 8, 2026

Issued by Vectis Group LLC.

Introduction

Welcome. This Cookie Policy explains how Vectis Group, LLC, doing business as Prolify ("we," "us," "our," or "Prolify") uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website at prolify.co (the "Website") and access our platform. We know that "cookies" might be an unfamiliar term if you're forming a company for the first time. This policy explains what they are, why we use them, and how you can control them. Reading this policy should take about 5 minutes.

1. What Are Cookies?

A cookie is a small text file that websites place on your computer or mobile device when you visit. Cookies are stored by your browser and automatically sent back to the website on future visits.

Why use cookies at all?

Cookies help websites work smoothly and securely. They allow us to:

  • Keep you logged in
  • Remember your preferences
  • Understand how you use our platform
  • Protect against fraud and security threats

Important distinction: Cookies are not spyware

Cookies cannot run programs, deliver viruses, or access information on your device beyond what the website sends them. They're just small text files with information that you're already sharing with us when you use the Website.

2. Cookies We Use & Why

We use cookies in four categories:

2.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies must function for the Website to work. We can't ask your permission because without them, you couldn't access your account or complete transactions.

PurposeProviderTypical Duration
Keep you logged in (session authentication)ProlifySession (until you log out)
Protect against fraud and unauthorized accessProlifySession to 24 hours
Load balance traffic and prevent outagesProlifySession
Enable payment processing securityStripeSession to 30 days
CSRF protection (prevent form hijacking attacks)ProlifySession

Impact if disabled: You won't be able to log in, use your account, or submit payment information securely. The Website will not work.

2.2 Functional Cookies

These cookies improve your experience by remembering choices you've made.

PurposeProviderDuration
Remember your language preferenceProlify1 year
Remember your UI preferences (e.g., theme, sidebar state)Prolify1 year
Customer support widget state (if applicable)Third-party support toolsSession to 30 days

Impact if disabled: You'll have to re-select your language and preferences on each visit, but the Website will still function.

2.3 Analytics & Performance Cookies

These cookies help us understand how you use the platform so we can improve features, fix bugs, and make the experience faster.

PurposeProviderDuration
Track page views, clicks, feature adoption, and user flowPostHog365 days (first-party cookie)
Measure performance and error reportingProlify / Monitoring servicesVariable

Data collected: Which pages you visit, how long you spend on each, which features you use, feature adoption metrics, user flows, performance metrics, general geographic location (from IP address), browser/device type.

Who sees this data: Our product, engineering, and support teams use this data internally to improve the platform. We do not sell this data to third parties.

Impact if disabled: We'll have less insight into what's working, but the Website will function normally.

2.4 Marketing & Advertising Cookies

Prolify does not currently use marketing or advertising cookies. We do not deploy tracking pixels from advertising networks (such as Facebook Pixel, Google Ads, LinkedIn Ads, or similar services). This means:

  • We do not track your activity for advertising purposes
  • We do not build audience profiles for retargeting
  • We do not share your browsing data with advertising networks
  • You will not see Prolify ads following you around the internet based on your visit here

If this changes in the future, we will update this Cookie Policy, obtain your consent where required by law, and provide clear opt-out mechanisms before deploying any marketing cookies.

3. First-Party vs. Third-Party Cookies

First-party cookies are set by Prolify directly (our domain).

Third-party cookies are set by other companies (like Stripe) when you visit our Website.

Why third-party cookies?

We use trusted vendors to:

  • Process payments securely (Stripe)
  • Understand product usage (PostHog — using first-party cookies only)

We do not currently use third-party advertising cookies.

All third-party vendors are required by contract to respect your privacy and follow applicable laws (including GDPR and CCPA), use data only for purposes we've authorized, maintain Data Processing Agreements (DPAs) with us, and not share your data with other parties without your consent.

4. Similar Technologies

Beyond cookies, we may also use:

TechnologyPurposeYour Control
Web Beacons (pixels)Tiny invisible images that track whether an email was opened or page was viewedPart of analytics/marketing cookies (see section 5.3)
Local StorageBrowser memory that persists data (like cookies, but larger and not automatically sent)Browser settings (usually under "Clear Site Data" or "Local Storage")
Session StorageTemporary browser memory cleared when you close the browserCleared automatically when browser closes
SDKs in embedded toolsIf we embed a chat tool, payment processor, or analytics tool, it may use its own trackingGoverned by that tool's privacy policy

5. Your Choices — How to Manage Cookies

5.1 Prolify Consent Banner & Preference Center

When you first visit the Website, you'll see a banner asking you to consent to non-essential cookies. You can:

  • Accept all — Enable all cookies (recommended for full functionality)
  • Reject all — Disable non-essential cookies (only strictly necessary cookies will remain)
  • Manage preferences — Choose which types of cookies to allow

Your preference is saved and will be honored on future visits. You can change your preferences anytime by visiting our website and clicking "Cookie Preferences" in the footer, or by logging into your account and adjusting Settings > Privacy > Cookie Preferences.

5.2 Browser Settings

Most browsers allow you to manage, disable, or delete cookies:

  • Chrome: Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and other site data
  • Firefox: Preferences > Privacy and Security > Cookies and Site Data
  • Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Cookies and website data
  • Edge: Settings > Privacy, search, and services > Cookies and other site data

Note: Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent the Website from working correctly.

5.3 Opt-Out of Analytics

PostHog Analytics: Adjust your tracking preferences in your Prolify account settings (Settings > Privacy > Analytics Preferences). PostHog uses first-party cookies only — blocking third-party cookies will not affect PostHog tracking. For EU/UK users who do not consent to cookies, PostHog automatically operates in cookieless mode using server-side hashing, meaning no personal identifiers are stored on your device.

Note on Marketing Cookies: Prolify does not currently deploy marketing or advertising cookies. If this changes, specific opt-out instructions will be provided here.

5.4 Do Not Track (DNT) Signals

Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) setting. Prolify does not currently respond to DNT signals, as there is no universal industry standard for honoring them. However, we honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals (see Section 5.5) and respect your choices through our consent banner and preference center.

5.5 Global Privacy Control (GPC)

Prolify honors the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. If your browser or privacy extension (such as Brave Browser or Privacy Badger) sends a GPC signal, we will treat it as a valid opt-out of the sale or sharing of personal information under CCPA/CPRA.

6. Impact of Disabling Cookies

Cookie CategoryIf You DisableImpact
Strictly NecessaryYou won't be able toLog in, maintain your session, or complete transactions. We recommend keeping these enabled.

MarketingYou can use the Website, andYou'll see fewer Prolify ads on other websites. You won't be targeted for ads based on your visit here.

7. International Data Transfers

Prolify uses vendors in the United States and other countries. The data collected by cookies and analytics tools may be transferred to, processed in, and stored in the United States and other countries where our vendors operate. These countries may have different data protection laws than your home country.

By using the Website and accepting cookies, you consent to this transfer. We take steps to ensure that international transfers are lawful:

  • We enter into Data Processing Agreements with vendors
  • Vendors certify compliance with frameworks like the Data Privacy Framework (DPF) or Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC)
  • We regularly audit vendor compliance

For more details, see our Privacy Policy (Section 7: International Data Transfers).

8. California (CCPA) & European (GDPR/ePrivacy) Users

8.1 For California Residents (CCPA/CPRA)

Under California privacy law, you have the right to know what personal information we collect (including via cookies), delete that information, and opt-out of the "sale" or "sharing" of your information.

Note on "Sale" and "Sharing": The CCPA defines "sale" and "sharing" broadly. Using analytics and marketing cookies may fall within these definitions depending on the vendor's practices and the data shared.

Your Options:

  • Use your Prolify account settings (Settings > Privacy > Marketing Communications) to opt out
  • Use the browser-based opt-out mechanisms in Section 5.3
  • Submit a request by contacting privacy@prolify.co

For details, see our Privacy Policy (Section 15: California Disclosures).

8.2 For European Residents (GDPR/ePrivacy Directive)

Under EU/UK law, we must obtain your explicit, informed consent before placing non-essential cookies. Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent and are placed automatically.

The cookie consent banner you see when you first visit the Website is designed to meet this requirement. You must affirmatively opt-in to analytics and marketing cookies.

Your rights:

  • You can withdraw consent at any time by adjusting your cookie preferences (Section 5.1)
  • You can request a copy of the cookies set on your device
  • You can contact us to exercise your data rights (access, delete, portability, etc.)

See our Privacy Policy (Section 16: International User Disclosures) for more details on your GDPR rights.

9. Third-Party Links & Cookies

Our Website may link to other websites (e.g., government filing portals, payment processors, integrations). Those websites have their own cookie policies, and we are not responsible for their cookies or data practices. When you leave Prolify to visit a linked website, we recommend reviewing their cookie and privacy policies.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy as our technology, vendors, or legal obligations change. When we make material changes, we'll:

  • Post the new policy on this page
  • Update the "Last Updated" date at the top
  • Notify you of major changes via email (if required by law)

Your continued use of the Website after a change means you accept the updated policy. If you do not accept a change, you may delete your cookies and stop using the Website.
