Cookie Policy

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, smartphone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide information to site owners.

Cookies set by the website you visit are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies are used for advertising, analytics, and social media features.

2. Types of Cookies We Use

3. How We Use Cookies

We use cookies for the following purposes:

• Security: CSRF tokens prevent cross-site request forgery attacks on form submissions.
• Session management: PHP sessions enable authenticated interactions and maintain your state across page loads.
• Preference storage: Your cookie consent and email gate answers are stored so you do not have to repeat them on every visit.
• Analytics: We use server-side logging to understand which tools and pages are most used. We do not currently use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or other client-side tracking scripts.

We do not use cookies for advertising, retargeting, or selling your data to third parties.

4. Third-Party Cookies

VLMS Software does not currently load any third-party advertising or social media tracking scripts. The fonts we use (Space Grotesk, JetBrains Mono, Inter) are loaded via Google Fonts. Google may set cookies in connection with this service. You can review Google's Privacy Policy for details.

If you connect to VLMS Software through a link shared on social media, the social platform may collect data about your browsing activity independently of any cookies we set. We have no control over third-party cookies set by platforms you access before reaching our site.

6. Local Storage and Session Storage

In addition to cookies, we use browser localStorage to store your email address (if you complete the email gate on one of our tools) and your cookie consent answer. localStorage data persists beyond your browser session until you clear it manually. It is not transmitted to our servers automatically — it only sits in your browser.

To clear localStorage data for our site, open your browser's Developer Tools (F12), navigate to Application → Local Storage → vlms.software, and delete the relevant keys (vlms_email, vlms_cookie_ok).

7. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legislation, or our business practices. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
