Cookie Policy

Last Updated: September 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Pigeonite, a U.S. company (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), uses cookies and similar technologies on the website located at pigeonite.net (the “Site”). This policy applies to all visitors, users, and customers who access or interact with the Site, regardless of the device or browser used. By continuing to use the Site, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Cookie Policy, together with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, which are incorporated herein by reference. If you do not agree with the practices described in this policy, you should adjust your browser settings or discontinue use of the Site.

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that a website sends to your browser or device when you visit the Site. These files are stored on your computer, tablet, smartphone, or other internet-enabled device and allow the Site to recognize your browser, store preferences, and collect information about your interactions over time. Cookies may be “session cookies,” which expire when you close your browser, or “persistent cookies,” which remain on your device for a predetermined period or until you delete them.

In addition to traditional cookies, we and our service providers may use other tracking technologies that perform similar functions, including web beacons, pixels, tags, local storage objects (such as HTML5), software development kits (SDKs), and device identifiers. For purposes of this Cookie Policy, all such technologies are referred to collectively as “cookies.” These technologies help us operate the Site, understand how visitors engage with our content, personalize experiences, deliver relevant communications, and maintain security.

Cookies may be set directly by the Site (known as “first-party cookies”) or by third parties that provide content, advertising, analytics, or other services on or through the Site (known as “third-party cookies”). The information collected by cookies may include identifiers, browser type, device type, operating system, IP address, language preferences, referring and exit pages, date and time stamps, clickstream data, and other usage information. Some of this information may be considered personal information or personal data under applicable state privacy laws.

Cookies do not typically give us access to your device itself or to files stored on it. However, depending on your browser settings and the cookies in use, certain cookies may be linked to your account or other identifiers. We use cookies only for lawful purposes and in accordance with the disclosures set forth in this policy and our Privacy Policy.

2. Types of Cookies We Use

We classify the cookies used on the Site into the categories described below. The specific cookies deployed may change from time to time as we update our services, add new features, or work with new vendors. We endeavor to keep this classification accurate and current, but the list of individual cookies should be understood as representative rather than exhaustive.

Our cookies may be categorized by duration as session cookies or persistent cookies, and by origin as first-party cookies or third-party cookies. Session cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser, while persistent cookies remain on your device until they expire or are manually removed. First-party cookies are set by the Site, and third-party cookies are set by Pigeonites other than pigeonite.net.

The primary categories of cookies we use are: (a) Essential Cookies, which are necessary for the Site to function; (b) Analytics Cookies, which help us understand and improve Site performance; (c) Marketing Cookies, which support advertising and promotional activities; and (d) Functional or Preference Cookies, which remember choices you make to enhance your experience. The following sections provide additional detail on each category.

We do not use cookies to collect sensitive personal information, such as Social Security numbers, financial account credentials, or precise geolocation data, unless you voluntarily provide such information through secure forms on the Site. Where permitted by law, we may combine cookie data with other information we hold about you to provide, secure, and improve our services.

3. Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are strictly necessary for the operation of the Site and the delivery of services you have requested. These cookies enable core functionality such as user authentication, account access, session management, load balancing, fraud prevention, and security protections. Without these cookies, certain features of the Site may not work properly or may be unavailable.

Because essential cookies are required to provide the Site and to protect our systems and users, we do not offer an opt-out mechanism for these cookies. If you choose to block or delete essential cookies through your browser settings, you may be unable to log in, access secure areas, complete transactions, or use other critical features of the Site. Any such limitation is solely your responsibility.

Essential cookies may be either session-based or persistent. For example, an authentication cookie may persist for a limited time so that you remain logged in during a session, while a security cookie may remain longer to help detect and prevent unauthorized access. We limit the use of essential cookies to what is reasonably necessary to fulfill their purpose.

Under the opt-out model followed in the United States, including under the CCPA/CPRA and comparable state privacy laws, essential cookies that are used solely to carry out a requested transaction or to maintain security generally do not require prior consent. By using the Site, you acknowledge that essential cookies will be placed and read as described in this section.

4. Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies allow us to collect information about how visitors interact with the Site, which pages are visited most often, how users navigate between pages, and whether they encounter errors. This information is used to improve the design, functionality, content, and overall user experience of the Site. Analytics cookies help us identify trends, measure the effectiveness of features, and troubleshoot technical issues.

The information collected through analytics cookies is generally aggregated or pseudonymized. However, in some cases, analytics providers may associate cookie data with an IP address, device identifier, or online identifier. We work with reputable analytics vendors that process data in accordance with their own privacy policies and applicable data protection requirements. We do not use analytics cookies to make automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects.

You may opt out of analytics cookies by adjusting your browser settings, using the opt-out mechanisms provided by our analytics vendors, or contacting us using the information in the “Contact Information” section below. Please note that if you opt out, we may still collect limited log information necessary for security, troubleshooting, and compliance purposes, but such collection will not rely on analytics cookies.

Because analytics cookies are not essential to the operation of the Site, you have the right to disable them under applicable state privacy laws, including the CCPA/CPRA, Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA), Colorado Privacy Act (CPA), Connecticut Act Concerning Personal Data Privacy and Online Monitoring (CTDPA), and Utah Consumer Privacy Act (UCPA), to the extent those laws apply to our processing activities.

5. Marketing Cookies

Marketing cookies are used to deliver advertisements and promotional content that may be relevant to your interests, both on and off the Site. These cookies help us measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns, track conversions, and prevent the repeated display of the same advertisements. They may also be used by our advertising partners to build profiles of users’ interests and to show targeted ads on third-party websites or platforms.

Marketing cookies may involve the disclosure of information to third-party advertising networks, social media platforms, and other marketing partners. Under the CCPA/CPRA and certain other state privacy laws, such disclosures may constitute a “sale” or “sharing” of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising purposes. Where applicable, you have the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information through cookies and similar technologies.

You may opt out of marketing cookies by adjusting your browser settings, using the opt-out tools provided by industry self-regulatory programs such as the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA), Network Advertising Initiative (NAI), or Your Online Choices, or by submitting a request through the contact information provided below. If you send us a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal or similar opt-out preference signal, we will honor it to the extent required by applicable law.

Please note that opting out of marketing cookies does not mean you will no longer see advertisements. It means that the ads you see may be less relevant to your interests, and third-party advertisers may no longer use cookie data to deliver targeted advertising based on your browsing activities across different websites.

6. Third-Party Cookies

The Site may allow third parties to place cookies on your device when you interact with their content, services, or advertisements. These third parties may include analytics providers, advertising networks, social media platforms, payment processors, customer support tools, and other service providers. Third-party cookies are governed by the privacy and cookie policies of the third parties that set them, not by this Cookie Policy.

We do not control the collection, use, or sharing of information by third-party cookies. The third parties that set these cookies may collect information about your online activities over time and across different websites, and they may use that information for their own purposes, including analytics, advertising, and personalization. We encourage you to review the privacy and cookie policies of any third-party services you interact with through the Site.

We are not responsible for the accuracy, completeness, availability, security, or legality of any third-party cookies, websites, or services. Your use of third-party cookies and services is at your own risk. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Pigeonite disclaims all liability for any claims, damages, losses, or expenses arising out of or relating to third-party cookies, including but not limited to data breaches, unauthorized access, or misuse of information by third parties.

Where we have a direct contractual relationship with a third party that sets cookies on our behalf, we require that party to use the information consistently with this Cookie Policy and applicable law. However, our contractual controls do not extend to third parties that collect information for their own independent purposes. Nothing in this policy should be construed as an endorsement of any third-party product, service, or practice.

7. How to Control Cookies

Because the Site operates in the United States, we follow an opt-out consent model consistent with the CCPA/CPRA and applicable state privacy laws. This means that, except for essential cookies necessary to operate the Site, you are not required to provide prior consent before we place cookies. Instead, you may opt out of non-essential cookies as described in this policy. We do not provide an EU-style cookie consent banner on the Site.

You may exercise your privacy rights under applicable state laws by contacting us at [email protected] or by using any opt-out mechanism described in this policy. Depending on your state of residence, these rights may include the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, the right to limit the use of sensitive personal information, the right to know what personal information is collected, and the right to request deletion of personal information.

You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser or device settings, as described in the “Browser Settings” section below. You may also opt out of interest-based advertising through industry self-regulatory tools, such as the DAA’s WebChoices tool, the NAI’s opt-out page, or the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance (EDAA) Your Online Choices portal, where applicable. Additionally, many advertising platforms allow you to manage ad preferences directly within your account settings.

Please be aware that opting out of cookies is browser-specific and device-specific. If you use multiple browsers or devices, you must adjust the settings on each one. Clearing cookies may also remove your opt-out preferences, requiring you to opt out again. We are not responsible for the effectiveness of third-party opt-out tools or for any consequences resulting from your cookie management choices.

8. Browser Settings

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically configure your browser to accept all cookies, reject all cookies, notify you when a cookie is being placed, or delete cookies that have already been stored. The exact steps vary depending on the browser and version you use. Common browsers include Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Microsoft Edge, and Opera.

To manage cookies, you should consult the “Help,” “Settings,” or “Preferences” section of your browser. For example, in many browsers, you can find cookie controls under Privacy and Security settings. You may also be able to delete cookies on a site-by-site basis or configure your browser to block third-party cookies while allowing first-party cookies.

Please note that blocking, disabling, or deleting cookies may affect the functionality of the Site and your ability to use certain features. For example, you may need to re-enter login credentials, reset preferences, or experience slower loading times. Some content or services may become unavailable if cookies are disabled. These consequences are beyond our control and are your sole responsibility.

In addition to browser controls, many mobile operating systems offer device-level controls for advertising identifiers and tracking. You may reset your advertising identifier or limit ad tracking through your device settings. We recommend that you review both your browser and device settings to manage cookies and similar technologies effectively.

9. Updates to Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legal requirements, our business practices, or the cookies and tracking technologies we use. When we make material changes, we will revise the “Last Updated” date at the top of this policy and may provide additional notice through the Site, by email, or as otherwise required by applicable law.

Your continued access to or use of the Site after the effective date of any revised Cookie Policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms. If you do not agree with the updated policy, you must stop using the Site and adjust your browser settings to block cookies. We are not obligated to notify you of non-material changes, and you are responsible for reviewing this policy periodically.

Previous versions of this Cookie Policy may be archived and are available upon request. No oral statements, representations, or assurances by any employee, agent, or representative of Pigeonite may modify, supersede, or waive any provision of this policy. Only a written amendment signed by an authorized officer of Pigeonite may alter the terms of this Cookie Policy.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Pigeonite shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, punitive, or exemplary damages arising out of or relating to this Cookie Policy, your use or inability to use cookie controls, or any errors, omissions, or changes in the cookies used on the Site. This limitation of liability applies regardless of the legal theory asserted, including negligence, contract, tort, strict liability, or otherwise.
