Cookie Policy
Last updated: March 9, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Crowditory LTD ("we", "us", "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on the PaperChunk website at paperchunk.com (the "Service"). This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, provide a better user experience, and supply information to website operators.
Cookies can be "session cookies" (deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent cookies" (remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them).
2. Cookies We Use
We use a minimal set of cookies, all of which are necessary for the Service to function correctly. We do not use advertising, tracking, or analytics cookies.
2.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the Service to operate. Without them, you would not be able to log in, manage your servers, or use core features. Because they are strictly necessary, they do not require your consent under GDPR and ePrivacy Directive.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
better-auth.session_token | Authenticates your session after login. This cookie identifies you as a logged-in user and allows you to access your Account and Servers without re-entering credentials on every page. | Session / 30 days | First-party, HTTP-only, Secure |
paperchunk_cookie_consent | Stores your cookie consent preference so that the consent banner is not shown repeatedly. | 1 year | First-party |
2.2 Third-Party Cookies
When you proceed to payment, you are redirected to Stripe's payment page. Stripe may set its own cookies during the checkout process to prevent fraud and process your payment securely. These cookies are governed by Stripe's Cookie Policy.
We do not embed any third-party advertising, social media, or analytics scripts that would set cookies on your device.
3. 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 websites.
- Block all cookies entirely.
- Delete all cookies when you close your browser.
Please note that blocking or deleting strictly necessary cookies (such as the session cookie) will prevent you from logging in and using the Service.
Here are instructions for managing cookies in common browsers:
- Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data
- Mozilla Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Microsoft Edge: Settings → Cookies and Site Permissions → Manage and delete cookies and site data
4. Local Storage
In addition to cookies, we may use your browser's local storage to store non-personal preferences (such as UI state). Local storage data is stored only on your device and is not transmitted to our servers.
5. Do Not Track
We do not track users across third-party websites. We do not use analytics or advertising tracking. The Service respects "Do Not Track" browser signals, though since we do not perform any cross-site tracking, the signal has no practical effect on our behavior.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time if we introduce new types of cookies or change how we use existing ones. Changes will be reflected in the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
