Which cookies and similar technologies CreateWebToday uses, why we use them, and how you can manage them.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small files a website stores in your browser to remember preferences, keep sessions, or measure technical performance. We also use similar technologies such as browser local storage.
2. How we use them on CreateWebToday
| Name / source | Type | Purpose | Approx. duration |
|---|---|---|---|
ctwh_session | Strictly necessary | Keep you signed in securely | Session / as configured |
| Local storage (wizard draft) | Functional | Restore progress if you close the browser before finishing | Until you complete or clear the draft |
Local storage (ctw_aid, ctw_sid) | First-party analytics | Measure, in aggregate, where people stop while building their site so we can improve it. It is a random identifier, is not shared with third parties, and is not used for advertising or commercial profiling. We honor Global Privacy Control. | Until you clear your browser data |
| Stripe (embedded checkout) | Payment-necessary | Process payment securely | Per Stripe |
| Cloudflare Turnstile (when enabled) | Security | Prevent bots and abuse on signup or site creation | Per Cloudflare |
| Google OAuth (if you use “Continue with Google”) | Authentication | Sign in with your Google account | Per Google |
Microsoft Clarity (_clck, _clsk) | Product analytics | Heatmaps and session recordings on this Platform (not on customer published sites), so we can see how the site is used. We do not use it for our own ads or remarketing. | _clck: 1 year · _clsk: 1 day |
Google Analytics (_ga, _ga_*) | Analytics | Measure visits, page views, and Platform usage (not on customer published sites). We do not use it for our own ads or remarketing. | Up to 2 years |
3. Types of cookies by purpose
- Strictly necessary: required for login, security, and checkout. Without them the Service will not work correctly.
- Functional: improve the experience (for example saving drafts).
- Analytics: Microsoft Clarity (heatmaps and session recordings) and Google Analytics (visits and page views) measure how the Platform is used.
- Third-party: set by Stripe, Google, Cloudflare, or Microsoft when you use those features.
We do not run our own advertising cookies or remarketing inside the Platform. Clarity and Google Analytics are product analytics; Microsoft and Google may set their own cookies on their domains, under their policies.
4. How to manage or disable cookies
You can configure your browser to block or delete cookies. Please note:
- If you block necessary cookies, you may not be able to sign in or pay.
- If you clear local storage, you may lose an unsaved wizard draft.
