Cookie Policy
Last updated: 8 November 2026
1. What we use
WebSignals uses only strictly necessary cookies and browser storage for sign-in, session management and security.
| Name | Type | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
ws_consent | Browser storage (strictly necessary) | Remembers your cookie choices | Until you clear it |
ws_app | Cookie (HttpOnly, strictly necessary) | Proves you launched the app from an active subscription so the web app can be served to you | 1 hour |
ws_token | Browser local storage (strictly necessary) | Keeps you signed in on the website and in the web app | Until you sign out or it expires |
| Sign-in token | Secure device storage (mobile app) | Keeps you signed in on your phone | Until you sign out |
| Chat language | Device storage (mobile app) | Remembers your chat translation language | Until you change it |
We do not currently use performance, analytics, advertising or tracking cookies. If we add any, we will update this policy and ask for your consent first where the law requires it.
2. Consent and management
Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent, so choices you make in the cookie preferences panel do not affect sign-in or security. The panel appears on your first visit and its choices are recorded in your browser (ws_consent, local storage). Optional categories (preferences, analytics, marketing) are currently unused; if we ever add them, they will stay off until you opt in. Use Cookie preferences in the footer to reopen the panel and change your choice at any time. Your browser's Global Privacy Control signal is treated as an opt-out. You can also block or delete cookies and site data in your browser settings; the website and web app will not work without the strictly necessary ones.
3. Third parties
When you choose Manage billing or subscribe, you are taken to Stripe, which sets its own cookies under its own policy.
