Cookie Policy
Last Updated: September 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Proustite ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies, pixels, web beacons, local storage objects, software development kits, and similar tracking technologies (collectively, "Cookies") on proustite.net and on proustite.net, including all associated subProustites, applications, dashboards, and features (collectively, the "Website"). This Policy describes what Cookies are, the categories of Cookies we deploy, the purposes for which they are used, the third parties that may receive data collected through them, and the choices available to you to control or limit their operation.
This Cookie Policy forms an integral part of, and is governed by, our Privacy Policy, our Terms and Conditions, and, where applicable, our Terms of Service. Any capitalized term used but not defined in this Policy has the meaning given to it in the Privacy Policy. In the event of a conflict between this Cookie Policy and the Privacy Policy regarding the processing of personal information, the Privacy Policy shall control as to the processing of personal information, and this Cookie Policy shall control as to the operation of Cookies themselves.
proustite.net is operated from the United States and is directed primarily to users located in the United States. We operate under an opt-out model for certain data sharing activities, consistent with the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act ("CCPA/CPRA") and applicable state privacy laws. Accordingly, we do not present an EU-style prior-consent banner, and Cookies that are necessary for the operation of the Website are deployed automatically. You retain the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information and to manage non-essential Cookies as described in this Policy.
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files containing an identifier, a site name, and alphanumeric characters that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other internet-enabled device when you visit a website. When you return to the Website, or when you navigate between pages, the Cookie allows the Website or a third party to recognize your browser, recall your preferences, and distinguish you from other visitors. Cookies do not execute code, cannot deliver viruses, and do not, by themselves, reveal your name, email address, or other directly identifying information unless you have voluntarily provided that information to us.
We also use technologies that perform functions similar to Cookies but operate differently. These include web beacons (sometimes called "clear GIFs" or "pixel tags"), which are tiny graphic images embedded in web pages or emails that signal when a page or message has been viewed; local storage and session storage objects, which store data in your browser without transmitting it on every request; and software development kits embedded in our applications. References to "Cookies" in this Policy include all such comparable technologies.
Cookies are commonly classified by duration and origin. "Session Cookies" exist only for the duration of your browsing session and are deleted automatically when you close your browser. "Persistent Cookies" remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them, and are used to remember your settings across visits. "First-party Cookies" are set directly by proustite.net and are readable only by us. "Third-party Cookies" are set by a Proustite other than proustite.net and are used for functions such as analytics and advertising measurement.
You should be aware that disabling or deleting Cookies may materially affect your experience of the Website. Certain features of our software-as-a-service platform — including authentication, session continuity, account security, and saved configuration — depend on Cookie functionality. We therefore encourage you to review this Policy carefully before adjusting your settings, and to understand that we cannot guarantee full Website functionality where essential Cookies have been blocked.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
We categorize the Cookies deployed on the Website into four groups: Strictly Necessary (Essential) Cookies, Performance and Analytics Cookies, Functional Cookies, and Marketing and Advertising Cookies. This categorization reflects the function each Cookie performs rather than the identity of the party setting it, although in practice a single third-party provider may set Cookies across more than one category.
The specific Cookies in operation at any given time may change as we update the Website, add features, or change service providers. We maintain an internal Cookie register that records, for each Cookie, its name, provider, purpose, category, and retention period. We will update this Policy and, where required by applicable law, provide additional notice when material changes to our Cookie inventory occur.
Where a Cookie in a non-essential category is used to disclose personal information to a third party for cross-context behavioral advertising, that activity may constitute a "sale" or "share" under the CCPA/CPRA. In such cases, you have the right to direct us not to sell or share your personal information, as set out in Section 7 below and in our Privacy Policy.
We do not use Cookies to make automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects concerning you, and we do not use Cookies to infer characteristics that would constitute sensitive personal information under applicable law, except where you have expressly provided such information to us in the course of using the Website.
3. Essential Cookies
Essential Cookies are strictly necessary for the operation and security of the Website. Without these Cookies, core functionality such as logging into your account, maintaining your session as you move between pages, processing transactions, and protecting against fraudulent or unauthorized activity would not be possible. Because these Cookies are indispensable to the service you have requested, they are deployed automatically and are not subject to opt-out through our Cookie controls.
Typical essential Cookies on proustite.net may include authentication tokens that verify your identity during a session; load-balancing identifiers that route your requests to the appropriate server; security tokens that help detect and prevent cross-site request forgery and other attacks; and preference Cookies that record your cookie choices, language selection, and accessibility settings so that we do not prompt you repeatedly.
Essential Cookies are generally session-based, although some may persist for a limited period to preserve your settings between visits. Where an essential Cookie is persistent, we limit its lifespan to the minimum period necessary to fulfill its stated purpose. Blocking essential Cookies through your browser or device settings may render portions of the Website unavailable, and we disclaim responsibility for any resulting loss of functionality, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
4. Analytics Cookies
Analytics Cookies, also referred to as performance Cookies, allow us to understand how visitors interact with the Website. They collect information such as the number of visitors, the pages or screens viewed, the time spent on each page, the referral source, general geographic region, browser type, device type, and error events. This information is used in aggregate form to measure and improve performance, diagnose technical issues, and prioritize product development.
We use reputable third-party analytics providers, which may include providers of web analytics and product analytics services, as well as first-party analytics instrumentation built into our platform. These providers may set their own Cookies and may process data on our behalf under contractual terms that restrict their use of the data to the services they provide to us. Where required, we configure available settings such as IP address anonymization or data retention limits to reduce the identifiability of visitors.
Analytics data helps us determine which features of proustite.net are most valuable, identify and remediate usability problems, and detect patterns that may indicate security concerns. Where analytics data is combined with account information, it is treated as personal information and handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
You may limit analytics Cookies through the controls described in Sections 7 and 8, or through any opt-out mechanism offered by the applicable analytics provider. Please note that opting out does not prevent the collection of aggregated or de-identified information, and we may continue to use information that does not identify you for internal reporting and service improvement.
5. Marketing Cookies
Marketing Cookies, also described as targeting or advertising Cookies, are used to deliver content and advertisements that are more relevant to your interests, to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns, and to limit the number of times you see a given advertisement. These Cookies may record that your browser has visited the Website and may be linked to information collected by third-party advertising networks across other websites and applications.
Where marketing Cookies involve the disclosure of personal information to third parties for cross-context behavioral advertising, that disclosure may be considered a "sale" or "share" under the CCPA/CPRA. You have the right to opt out of such sale or sharing at any time. You may exercise that right by using the cookie preference controls available on the Website, by submitting a request through the contact channels identified in Section 10, or by transmitting an opt-out preference signal such as the Global Privacy Control ("GPC"), which we honor where technically feasible and as required by applicable law.
Opting out of the sale or sharing of personal information will not prevent you from seeing advertisements. It means that the advertising you see will be less tailored to your inferred interests, and that we will not disclose your personal information to third parties for cross-context behavioral advertising purposes. We do not knowingly sell or share the personal information of consumers under sixteen (16) years of age without affirmative authorization, and we do not knowingly direct targeted advertising to children.
6. Third-Party Cookies
Certain Cookies on the Website are set and controlled by third parties rather than by Proustite. These third parties may include analytics providers, advertising networks and demand-side platforms, customer support and live-chat vendors, payment processors, fraud prevention services, video and content delivery providers, and social media platforms that offer embedded functionality such as sharing buttons or single sign-on.
Third-party Cookies are governed by the privacy and cookie policies of the entities that set them. We do not control the data practices of third parties, and we encourage you to review their policies to understand how they collect, use, and disclose information. Where required by applicable law, we obtain contractual assurances from service providers that personal information is processed only for specified business purposes and consistent with applicable legal requirements.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Proustite disclaims any liability arising from the independent data practices, security measures, availability, or content of third-party Cookies, third-party websites, or third-party services. Your interactions with any third party, including any third party linked from the Website, are solely between you and that third party.
7. How to Control Cookies
You have several options for controlling or limiting the use of Cookies. You may use the cookie preference controls made available on the Website to manage non-essential categories, including analytics and marketing Cookies. You may also exercise your opt-out rights by submitting a request to [email protected] or by calling +13035550104. We will respond to verifiable consumer requests in accordance with the timelines and requirements of the CCPA/CPRA and applicable state privacy laws.
If you are a California resident or a resident of another state granting comparable rights, you may request to know the categories of personal information collected through Cookies, request deletion of personal information, request correction of inaccurate personal information, and direct us not to sell or share personal information. You may designate an authorized agent to act on your behalf, subject to verification requirements. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any privacy right, although we may offer financial incentives where permitted by law and disclosed to you.
Please note that opting out of non-essential Cookies does not remove Cookies already placed on your device; you must delete them through your browser or device settings. Additionally, some opt-out mechanisms rely on a Cookie or device identifier to remember your choice. If you clear your Cookies, change devices, or use a different browser, you may need to repeat your opt-out selections.
8. Browser Settings
Most web browsers allow you to view, manage, delete, and block Cookies through their settings menus. Commonly used browsers provide controls under headings such as "Privacy," "Security," "Cookies and Site Data," or "Content Settings." Instructions specific to your browser are available in the browser's help documentation or on the manufacturer's website. Mobile operating systems also offer advertising and tracking controls, including limits on cross-app tracking and resetting advertising identifiers.
Many browsers permit "Do Not Track" ("DNT") signals. Because there is currently no universally accepted standard for interpreting DNT, we do not treat DNT signals as a request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. We do, however, honor opt-out preference signals such as the Global Privacy Control where required by applicable law and where technically supported by our systems.
If you choose to block all Cookies, including essential Cookies, you may be unable to access secure areas of the Website, maintain a login session, or complete transactions. Proustite shall not be liable for any failure of the Website to function correctly where you have disabled Cookies, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
9. Updates to Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the Cookies we use, changes in applicable law or regulatory guidance, changes in our service providers, or improvements to our data practices. When we make changes, we will revise the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page and post the updated Policy on the Website.
Where changes are material, we will provide additional notice as required by applicable law, which may include a prominent notice on the Website or notification to registered users. Material changes will apply prospectively from the effective date of the revised Policy unless otherwise stated. Your continued use of the Website after the effective date constitutes your acknowledgment of the revised Policy.
We encourage you to review this Policy periodically to remain informed about the Cookies and tracking technologies in use on proustite.net. Archived versions of this Policy may be requested from us using the contact information below.
