A cookie is a small text file that a website stores in your browser to remember things between visits. Most sites use cookies for tracking, advertising, and analytics. Website Form Checker uses cookies for one thing only: securely processing payments through Stripe when you choose to subscribe. That's the entire story. The rest of this page is the detail.

What we use

Two things, both narrow:

  • Stripe payment cookies, set only when you start a checkout to subscribe. Stripe uses them for fraud prevention and session continuity. We never see or store these. See Stripe's cookie policy for the specific cookie names and durations.
  • Umami analytics, which is cookieless by design and does not set any cookies or identifiers in your browser. We self-host it on our own infrastructure, so the data never leaves our servers. We use it to understand traffic patterns in aggregate.

That's it. No first-party tracking cookies. No functional cookies. No marketing or advertising cookies. No fingerprinting. No third-party trackers other than Stripe at checkout.

Why we don't show a cookie banner

We don't display a cookie consent banner because we have nothing to ask consent for. The Stripe cookies only set after you have voluntarily started a payment (which is itself a clear consent action), and the analytics we use don't set any cookies in the first place. A consent banner would be performative theater, not a meaningful choice.

Managing what your browser stores

If you want to block or clear cookies anyway, use your browser's settings or "Clear site data" feature. There is no in-site consent choice to manage because we don't ask for one.

Note: blocking Stripe's cookies will prevent checkout payments from working.

Changes to this policy

If the cookies or storage we use change, we will update this page and the "Last updated" date above. If we ever start using cookies that do require consent (we don't currently), we'll add a consent banner before that happens, not after.
