Cookie Policy
ContentFlare Inc. · BN 471928653 RC0001 · Last updated: 21 July 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how ContentFlare Inc. ("ContentFlare", "we", "us") uses cookies, localStorage and similar technologies on contentflare.pro. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy. We comply with Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act ("PIPEDA") and, where applicable, British Columbia's Personal Information Protection Act ("BC PIPA").
1. What are cookies and similar technologies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help sites remember preferences, maintain security and understand usage patterns. LocalStorage is a browser storage mechanism that lets websites save data locally on your device. Pixels and similar tags may load with analytics scripts to measure page views. These technologies may collect personal information such as IP address, browser type, device identifiers and pages visited.
2. How we use cookies
ContentFlare uses cookies and localStorage in three broad categories:
- Strictly necessary: Required for core site operation, security and form submission integrity. These do not require consent under typical Canadian interpretations because the site cannot function without them.
- Analytics: Help us understand aggregate traffic, popular pages and referral sources so we can improve content and navigation. Analytics cookies are disabled until you accept them via our cookie banner or customise panel.
- Preferences: Remember optional choices such as banner dismissal state and customised consent selections. Preference storage tied to non-essential features requires consent.
3. Cookie banner and consent management
When you first visit contentflare.pro, a cookie banner offers three choices: Accept all, Reject all, or Customise. Your selection is stored in browser localStorage under the key cf_cookie_consent for six months (183 days), after which the banner reappears so you may renew or change your choice.
Reject all disables non-essential analytics and preference cookies while allowing strictly necessary operation. Customise lets you toggle Analytics and Preferences independently before saving. You may change your choice at any time by clearing site data in your browser or contacting us — note that clearing data will reset the banner on your next visit.
Consent choices are recorded with a timestamp and expiry date. We do not use dark patterns to force acceptance of non-essential cookies.
4. Specific technologies we may use
As of the last updated date above, our site uses:
- cf_cookie_consent (localStorage): Stores your cookie banner decision, analytics and preferences flags, and expiry timestamp. Category: strictly necessary for consent record-keeping; contains consent metadata only.
- Session and security cookies: If deployed by our hosting provider, short-lived cookies may support load balancing, bot mitigation or TLS session continuity. Category: strictly necessary.
- Analytics cookies (optional): If enabled after consent, privacy-oriented analytics may set cookies to distinguish unique visits and measure page performance. We configure analytics to minimise personal data collection where vendor settings allow.
We review technologies periodically and update this Policy when categories change materially.
5. Third-party cookies
Some optional analytics or embedded content may originate from third-party domains. Those providers process data under their own privacy policies. We select vendors with reasonable privacy practices and configure tools to respect Canadian consent requirements. Third-party cookies load only after you consent to analytics unless strictly necessary for security at the infrastructure layer.
6. Legal basis
Under PIPEDA and BC PIPA, we obtain meaningful consent before placing non-essential cookies that collect personal information for analytics or optional preferences. Strictly necessary cookies are used based on legitimate need to deliver a secure, functional website. You may withdraw consent for non-essential cookies by selecting Reject all, adjusting Customise settings, or clearing browser storage.
7. How to control cookies in your browser
Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies through settings. Blocking all cookies may impair site functionality, including form features and consent record-keeping. Consult your browser help documentation for instructions. Common browsers include Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Edge.
Do Not Track signals are not uniformly honoured across the industry; our consent banner remains the primary mechanism for optional cookies on this site.
8. Retention
Consent records in localStorage expire after six months. Analytics cookies follow vendor default retention periods or shorter periods where we configure limits. When consent is withdrawn, we stop setting new non-essential cookies and rely on natural expiry for existing ones where immediate deletion is not technically feasible without clearing all site data.
9. Updates
We may update this Cookie Policy when we add tools, change vendors or respond to legal developments. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will be posted on this page.
