1. What we use cookies for

Visual Sentinel uses cookies and similar technologies (pixels, local storage, session replay) to operate the site, measure traffic, and, when you consent, serve advertising. This page lists every category of cookie and pixel we set, who sets it, and what it does.

2. Your choices

If you are visiting from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, we default every non-essential cookie to denied until you opt in via the consent banner. If you are visiting from California, you can use the "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" link in the footer to opt out of marketing cookies. Everywhere else, non-essential cookies are on by default and you can disable them in your browser at any time.

Essential cookies (authentication, CSRF protection, theme preference) cannot be disabled because the site will not function without them.

4. Changing your preferences later
