LEGAL
Cookie Policy
This website sets no cookies. There is no advertising pixel, no social widget, no third-party font and no analytics script on this page. That is why you are not greeted by a consent wall.
1. Cookies on this website
pinwasp.com is a static site. Loading it stores nothing on your device
beyond your browser's ordinary HTTP cache. We do not use cookies for advertising,
profiling, A/B testing or audience measurement.
Your hosting provider records standard server logs (IP address, timestamp, requested file, user agent) to deliver the page and mitigate abuse. Those logs are not cookies and are not used to track you across sites.
2. The one strictly necessary cookie
One cookie exists in the PinWasp product, and it is set by the licence service at
api.pinwasp.com — not by this website. It is created when the extension
checks your trial or licence.
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Type | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|---|
__Host-pinwasp-device |
api.pinwasp.com |
Holds a random identifier so the licence service recognises a returning installation and the same device cannot start the 14-day free trial repeatedly. | Strictly necessary. HttpOnly, Secure, __Host- prefixed. |
[DEVICE_COOKIE_MAX_AGE] |
Because this cookie is strictly necessary to provide a service you actively requested — a licensed, trial-protected product — it does not require consent under the ePrivacy Directive. It contains a random value only: no name, email, IP address or browsing history. It is never used for advertising or analytics.
You can delete it by clearing cookies for api.pinwasp.com. Doing so may
cause the service to treat your browser as a new installation.
3. Storage used by the extension
Most of what PinWasp keeps is not a cookie at all — it is browser storage that never leaves your machine:
| Store | Contents | Leaves your device? |
|---|---|---|
IndexedDB (PinWaspDB) |
The pins you collect, their metrics and your bookmarks | No |
| chrome.storage | Your settings, licence key and installation identifier | Only if you enable Chrome Sync, which syncs between your own Chrome profiles via Google |
| localStorage on this website |
pinwasp.consent.v1 — your cookie choice, written only if you use
the consent banner
|
No |
To erase collected pins, use "Remove all pins" or "Delete matching" in the Pin Stats table. Uninstalling the extension removes all of its local data.
4. Optional analytics
We may later add privacy-friendly analytics to understand which pages are useful. If we do:
- nothing loads before you agree — the script is gated behind your consent;
- a banner will ask you first, with "Reject" as easy to choose as "Accept";
- your choice is stored locally under
pinwasp.consent.v1; - this page will list the exact provider and cookies before they are used.
Rejecting optional analytics does not limit any part of the website or the extension.
5. Managing your choices
Use Cookie preferences in the footer of any page to review, change or withdraw your choice at any time. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings; blocking the necessary licence cookie may affect trial handling.
