Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your browser or device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, improve efficiency, and provide information to the operators of the site.

Cookies may be set by the site you are visiting (first-party cookies) or by third parties whose services are used on the site (third-party cookies). They may be stored for a single session (session cookies) or for a longer period (persistent cookies).

Similar technologies such as pixels, web beacons, local storage, and software development kits may perform comparable functions. In this policy, we refer to all of these technologies collectively as "cookies" for simplicity.

Local Rank Tracker may use cookies to:

• Keep you signed in and authenticate your account
• Remember your preferences and settings
• Secure your session against unauthorized access
• Understand how the platform is used so we can improve it
• Measure the effectiveness of our content and campaigns
• Prevent fraud, abuse, and security threats
• Comply with applicable legal requirements

We do not use cookies to sell personal information or to build an advertising profile that is sold to third parties.

Local Rank Tracker may place or allow the following categories of cookies. The specific cookies and their duration may change as the product evolves.

Essential cookies are required for Local Rank Tracker to function correctly. Without them, you would not be able to log in, keep a session, or access secure areas of the platform.

These cookies typically handle:

• Sign-in and authentication
• Session management
• Security and fraud prevention
• Load balancing and infrastructure routing
• Cookie preference retention

Essential cookies cannot be disabled through our interface because the platform relies on them to operate. You may be able to block them through your browser, but doing so will likely affect your ability to use Local Rank Tracker.

Preference cookies allow us to remember choices you have made so you do not have to re-enter them on each visit.

These may include preferences such as:

• Interface settings
• Language preferences
• Layout or display preferences
• Saved filters or views

If you disable these cookies, some preferences may not persist between sessions and you may need to reconfigure settings each time you visit.

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors and customers use the platform. The information collected is used in aggregate to improve performance, usability, and content.

These cookies may collect information such as:

• Pages and features viewed
• Time spent on pages or in specific views
• Referring sources and navigation paths
• General device, browser, and region information
• Error and diagnostic information

Analytics data is not used to identify you personally. It helps us make product and content decisions based on how the platform is actually being used.

Where applicable and where permitted by law, we may use marketing cookies to measure the effectiveness of our campaigns or to deliver relevant marketing content.

Marketing cookies are only placed when required consent has been provided. Where consent is required, you may withdraw it at any time through any cookie preference tools available on our website or by contacting us.

Some cookies may be placed by third-party services that support Local Rank Tracker. These third parties help us operate the platform and may include providers that support:

• Analytics and product usage measurement
• Payment processing and subscription management
• Email delivery and communication tools
• Customer support platforms
• Security and fraud monitoring
• Error monitoring and infrastructure services

Third-party providers set their own cookies and are responsible for their own privacy practices. We encourage you to review their respective privacy and cookie policies for more information.

You have several options for managing cookies. The method you choose may depend on the type of cookie and where it is placed.

1. Use our cookie controls. Any cookie banner or preference center shown on our site lets you accept or reject non-essential cookies.
2. Adjust your browser settings. Most modern browsers allow you to block, delete, or manage cookies. See the "Browser Controls" section below.
3. Manage third-party preferences. Some third parties provide their own opt-out tools. Refer to their respective privacy policies for details.
4. Contact us directly. If you have questions about a specific cookie, reach out and we will help clarify.

If you disable or block cookies, some parts of Local Rank Tracker may not work as intended. Essential cookies in particular are required for signing in, keeping a session, and accessing secure areas of the platform.

Non-essential cookies such as analytics and marketing cookies can typically be disabled without affecting core functionality.

Most browsers allow you to view, manage, and delete cookies through their settings. The exact steps vary by browser and version, but the process typically involves:

• Opening your browser settings or preferences
• Locating the privacy or security section
• Reviewing your cookie and site data settings
• Applying your preferred controls

For specific instructions, refer to the help documentation for your browser (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, or another browser you use).

You may also use private or incognito browsing modes to limit how cookies are stored during a session. Note that clearing cookies will also remove any saved settings and may sign you out of Local Rank Tracker.

In addition to cookies, we may use similar technologies that serve comparable purposes. These may include:

• Local storage and session storage in your browser
• Pixels and web beacons used for measurement
• Software development kits in any mobile experiences
• Server-side logging used for security and diagnostics

Where relevant, these technologies are governed by the same principles described in this Cookie Policy and in our Privacy Policy.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, how they are categorized, or applicable legal requirements.

When we make changes, we will update the Last Updated date at the top of this page. For material changes, we may provide additional notice where required.
