Cookie Policy
What we set, why, and how to change your mind.
Essential cookies
These cookies are required for the site to function. We can’t turn them off, and they don’t store anything you’d need to consent to under GDPR / CCPA — they keep you signed in, remember your cookie preferences, and prevent cross-site request forgery.
| Cookie name | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|
| sb-rlsxwyiihumsxdowxqci-auth-token | Supabase Auth session — keeps you signed in across requests. | 1 hour (auto-refreshed while you are active) |
| paywelly_cookie_consent | Stores your cookie preferences so we don’t prompt you again. | 365 days |
| CSRF / session helpers | Anti-forgery + session continuity on form submissions. | Session (cleared when you close the browser) |
Analytics cookies
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand which pages people visit and where they get stuck. These cookies are opt-in — we only set them after you accept analytics in the cookie consent banner. If you opt out (or have not opted in), none of the cookies below are set.
| Cookie name | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics 4 — distinguishes unique visitors. | 2 years (set only after you accept analytics) |
| _ga_<container-id> | Google Analytics 4 — session state for the GA4 property. | 2 years (set only after you accept analytics) |
How to change your preferences
You can change your cookie preferences at any time. The button below opens the cookie-preferences modal — accept all, reject non-essential, or pick categories one by one. Your choice is stored in the paywelly_cookie_consent cookie and persists for 365 days.
Third parties
Some third-party services PayWelly depends on set their own cookies when you use the parts of the product that involve them. The ones below are essential — without them, payments, identity verification, or signing in would not work.
- Stripe — required for payment flows, identity verification, and Stripe Connect Express onboarding. Stripe sets cookies when you load Stripe.js or interact with Stripe Elements. See Stripe’s cookie policy.
- Supabase — required for authentication and database access. Supabase sets the auth-token cookie listed in the Essential table above.
See our Privacy Policy for what data we collect and how we use it, and our Terms of Service for the legal terms of using PayWelly.
