Cookie Policy
What cookies Pluse uses, what they do, and how to control them.
Last updated: May 15, 2026 · Version 1.0
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, to make them work more efficiently, and to provide information to the site owner. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar technologies (collectively, “cookies”) Pluse uses, what they do, and your choices regarding them.
This Cookie Policy supplements our Privacy Policy and forms part of it.
2. Categories of Cookies We Use
We use cookies in the following categories:
- Strictly Necessary cookies — required for the platform to function (sign-in, security, account integrity). These cannot be disabled while using the Service.
- Functional cookies — remember your preferences (theme, “remember me,” trusted device).
- Analytics cookies — help us understand how the platform is used in aggregate. Pluse uses privacy-respecting analytics (Plausible) that do not set persistent cookies.
Pluse does not use advertising cookies, retargeting pixels, or third-party tracking cookies for cross-context behavioral advertising. We do not sell or share personal information for advertising purposes under the CCPA/CPRA or comparable state privacy laws.
3. Cookies We Set
The cookies set by Pluse on the pluse.to domain are listed below.
| Name | Category | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
ACCOUNTIFY_SESSION |
Strictly Necessary | Session cookie used to keep you signed in to Pluse. Cannot be disabled while using the Service. | Session (cleared when you sign out or your session expires) |
remember_me |
Functional | Optional persistent sign-in. Set only if you check “Remember me” on the login form. Allows you to remain signed in across browser sessions. | 30 days |
trusted_device |
Strictly Necessary (security) | Identifies a device you have marked as “trusted” for multi-factor authentication, so you are not prompted for a second factor on every login from that device. | 30 days |
cookieConsent (localStorage) |
Strictly Necessary | Records your choice on the cookie consent banner. Technically stored in browser localStorage rather than as a cookie. Required so we do not re-display the banner on every visit. | Persistent (until you clear browser storage or revoke consent) |
4. Third-Party Cookies
Some features of Pluse rely on third parties, and those third parties may set their own cookies. We do not control these cookies; consult each provider’s policy.
| Provider | Purpose | Where Cookies May Be Set | Policy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stripe | Payment processing, fraud prevention, and Stripe-hosted checkout pages. | Cookies are set by Stripe when you reach a Stripe-hosted page (checkout, account onboarding) or when Stripe.js loads. | stripe.com/cookies |
| Cloudflare | DDoS protection, bot mitigation, performance optimization for pluse.to. | May set __cf_bm (bot management, ~30 minutes) and cf_clearance (challenge passes) on requests to pluse.to. |
cloudflare.com/cookies |
| Apple, Google | Sign in with Apple, Sign in with Google authentication flows. | Cookies are set by Apple and Google only on their own sign-in pages, not on pluse.to. | Apple · Google |
| Plausible Analytics | Aggregate, privacy-respecting page-view analytics for public marketing pages. | Cookieless — Plausible does not set cookies and does not track users across sites. | plausible.io/privacy |
5. Local Storage and Similar Technologies
Pluse also uses browser localStorage and sessionStorage for non-cookie state, including: cookie consent choice, theme preference (light / dark), draft form data, and unsent invoice drafts for offline resilience. These are stored only in your browser and are not transmitted to Pluse servers.
6. Your Choices
6.1 Cookie Consent Banner
On your first visit to pluse.to, a banner asks you to Accept or Decline non-essential cookies. Declining stops any non-essential analytics cookies from being set. Strictly Necessary cookies (sign-in, security) remain because they are required for the Service to function.
6.2 Browser Controls
Most browsers let you view, manage, and delete cookies through their settings. You can:
- Block all cookies (note: doing so will prevent you from signing in to Pluse).
- Block third-party cookies only.
- Delete cookies on browser close.
- Delete specific cookies manually.
Browser-specific guides: Chrome · Firefox · Safari · Edge.
6.3 Do Not Track / Global Privacy Control
The Global Privacy Control (GPC) is a browser-level signal that tells websites a user wishes to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. Pluse’s data practices are consistent with the intent of GPC: we do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising or for any other purpose, whether or not a user’s browser transmits the GPC signal. If we ever introduce a practice that would qualify as “sale” or “sharing” under CCPA/CPRA or comparable laws, we will implement technical detection of the GPC signal and treat it as a valid opt-out before that practice goes into effect.
6.4 California, Virginia, and Other State Privacy Rights
If you are a resident of a US state with a comprehensive privacy law, see our Privacy Choices page for opt-out rights specific to your state.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when our cookie usage changes. Material changes will be reflected in the “Last updated” date and, where required, in the consent banner.
