Cookies & local storage

A necessary preference cookie, optional affiliate referrals, and separately controlled advertising and analytics.

These terms are in force. One commercial detail is still being confirmed and is marked in the text below: how long a refund decision takes. Nothing else on this page is provisional.

Lemon Squeezy — optional affiliate referrals

Affiliate referrals are optional and separate from Google advertising consent. Only after you accept Affiliate referrals in Cookie settings do we load Lemon Squeezy’s affiliate.js from lmsqueezy.com and Lemon.js from assets.lemonsqueezy.com. Rejecting, closing the notice, or sending Global Privacy Control keeps them off. You can buy Purrge without accepting.

The affiliate script sends Lemon Squeezy the page URL, referrer, affiliate code or existing click ID, a browser fingerprint calculated on your device, and network connection information. Lemon Squeezy uses this to link a referring partner’s visit to a purchase and award referral credit. The script sets the ls_aff_ref cookie on this site. Our checkout reads the generated click ID through Lemon Squeezy’s API and passes it as aff_ref on the hosted checkout URL; the public aff code is not the tracking ID.

Lemon Squeezy supplies the cookie’s expiry in its tracking response. Referral validity and first- or last-affiliate credit are controlled by the merchant’s Lemon Squeezy settings. We do not set a separate referral lifetime or promise a fixed number of days. Provider-side record retention has not been confirmed. Return visits with consent use the provider’s cookie and tracking service, subject to its expiry and your browser’s storage limits.

Withdraw Affiliate referrals or press Reject optional in Cookie settings to clear the referral cookie this site can reach and reload without the scripts. Your preference is kept for 180 days in purrge_privacy. Withdrawal stops future website tracking; it does not erase provider records already received or cookies on Lemon Squeezy’s own domain. If you leave an affiliate landing page before giving consent, that referral may not be recorded. Blocked or slow tracking does not prevent purchasing.

Recipient: Lemon Squeezy, LLC. See its privacy policy and referral tracking documentation.

What is stored now

Chat storage after you open it

UserJot chat is not loaded when you only browse the website. Pressing Chat with us loads its widget, which may use browser storage to keep the conversation available and sends connection information to UserJot. Sending a message shares what you type and any contact details you choose to enter. Purrge does not automatically identify you or send UserJot the page path. This support feature is separate from the analytics and advertising choices in Cookie settings. Use your browser’s site-data controls to remove local chat storage; contact us for a request concerning conversation records held by UserJot.

Optional tags, and exactly what they set

The Google tag (gtag.js) is loaded directly from googletagmanager.com after advertising consent. It records page visits for advertising measurement and audiences, and sends page, browser, device, referrer and connection information, including IP address, to Google LLC and its group companies, including in the United States. Google may also receive advertising click identifiers in the page URL.

Google Ads may set the _gcl_au cookie on this domain, with a documented default lifetime of 90 days, and contact googleadservices.com and doubleclick.net. Google may set its own cookies, such as IDE and test_cookie, under those domains where your browser permits them. Third-party cookie lifetimes are controlled by Google.

With advertising consent, the website can verify a completed order with Lemon Squeezy and send Google Ads the order transaction ID, actual paid amount and currency for purchase conversion measurement. A test, failed, unpaid or refunded order does not count. Visiting the thank-you page alone is not proof of payment. We do not send your email address, name or license key to Google. No sign-up or lead conversion is sent.

Google Consent Mode v2 starts with ad_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization and analytics_storage denied. No tracking script, preconnect, DNS prefetch or tracking iframe contacts Google before you choose. Reject optional and Accept all are available side by side. Details offers an unticked advertising choice. Closing the panel grants nothing.

You can withdraw advertising consent in Cookie settings. This denies the consent signals, clears the Google advertising cookies this page can reach and reloads without the tag. Your choice is remembered for 180 days. Withdrawing does not remove information Google already received.

Google Analytics 4 and the Meta Pixel remain unconfigured and do not load. Analytics and diagnostics cannot be enabled in Cookie settings.

Google’s Ads Data Processing Terms were accepted for the Purrge Tag Manager account on 14 September 2026. This notice does not assert additional account settings or retention choices. See Google’s advertising and measurement privacy information.

Change or withdraw your choice

Reject optional and Accept all are available side by side. Details opens separate purpose controls, including Affiliate referrals. Closing the panel grants nothing. Existing Google choices are preserved when we ask about the new affiliate provider; they are not reused as affiliate permission.

Open Cookie settings in the footer at any time. Reject optional withdraws all optional choices, clears reachable Google, Meta and Lemon Squeezy referral cookies, and reloads if scripts were loaded. You can also withdraw just Affiliate referrals while keeping your advertising choice. Forget my choice removes the preference and asks again. Cookies set on a provider’s own domain require your browser’s site-data controls.

Your preference lasts 180 days, uses a host-only cookie, SameSite=Lax, and Secure on HTTPS. Blocked preference storage keeps all optional tracking off. Global Privacy Control keeps advertising and affiliate referrals off; analytics is separately controlled. Without JavaScript, these pages remain readable and no optional scripts start.

What we have not confirmed yet

What is settled: Google’s Ads Data Processing Terms were accepted for this Tag Manager account on 14 September 2026. Those published terms are what governs Google’s role as a processor and the transfer safeguards it relies on; we are not adding a claim of our own on top of them.

Honest gaps, so you are not given false comfort: nothing equivalent is in place with Meta, because no Meta Business account has been connected and no Meta terms have been accepted; no GA4 data-retention window, IP-handling setting, Google Ads data-sharing setting or Meta pixel data-use setting has been chosen; and the identity of the legal operator responsible for these choices is still outstanding, which also determines whether that Google acceptance binds the right entity. We are not claiming any certification or adequacy finding.

Until those are settled, the tags must stay switched off in production. This page will be updated with the confirmed details, and a further material change would raise the notice version and ask you again.

Cookies are not the same as cached files

Clearing cached images or videos is not the same as withdrawing consent. Browser controls let you remove cookies and cached resources separately. This website does not access or clean your Mac’s files.

Your privacy choices.

Choose each purpose separately. Nothing optional is selected in advance, and closing this panel does not grant consent. Your choice is remembered for 180 days.

No choice recorded yet. Until you choose, every optional purpose is off.

Necessary Always on

Delivery and security, plus remembering this choice for up to 180 days. It contains no advertising or visitor ID.

Analytics Not active

Google Analytics 4 is built in but not configured, so it cannot run and there is nothing to turn on. Mac app analytics have a separate opt-in in the app’s Settings.

Diagnostics Not active

Sentry is planned, but no Sentry reporting or session replay runs on this website, so there is nothing to turn on.

Reject optional also withdraws consent you gave earlier: tracking stops, the Google, Meta and Lemon Squeezy referral cookies this page can reach are cleared, and the page reloads when needed.
