This Cookie Policy explains how SiteForge AI ("SiteForge," "we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on siteforgeai.io and our dashboard.
Effective Date: May 29, 2026 · Last Updated: May 29, 2026
What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember your preferences, keep you logged in, analyze traffic, and improve user experience.
We also use similar technologies including local storage, session storage, and pixels.
Cookies We Use
We use the following categories of cookies:
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the Service to function. They cannot be disabled without breaking core functionality.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Session token | Authentication; keeps you logged in | Session / 30 days if "remember me" |
| CSRF token | Security; prevents cross-site request forgery | Session |
| Preferences | Stores dashboard preferences (sidebar state, view mode) | 90 days |
Analytics Cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors use our marketing site so we can improve it.

|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics | Distinguishes unique users | 2 years |
| _gid | Google Analytics | Distinguishes unique users | 24 hours |
| _ga_* | Google Analytics | Stores session state | 2 years |
Google Analytics is set on the marketing site at siteforgeai.io. We use it to understand which pages visitors view, how they arrived, and which content drives signups. We have configured Google Analytics with IP anonymization where applicable.
Functional Cookies
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Theme preference | Stores light/dark mode preference | 1 year |
| Last visited page | Resumes where you left off | 30 days |
Customer Site Cookies
Websites we generate for our customers may set their own cookies as configured by you (e.g., for an integrated chat widget, analytics, or e-commerce cart). These cookies are governed by the customer's own privacy and cookie policies, not by SiteForge.
Third-Party Cookies
When you visit our marketing site, Google Analytics may set cookies as described above. Google's use of this data is governed by their privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy.
We do NOT use:
- Advertising or remarketing cookies
- Social media tracking pixels (Facebook, TikTok, etc.) on our marketing site
- Third-party data brokers
Managing Cookies
Browser Controls
Most browsers allow you to control cookies through settings:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions
Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent you from logging in or using core features.
Opting Out of Google Analytics
You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Do Not Track
We currently do not respond to Do Not Track browser signals because no consistent industry standard exists. We honor opt-outs through the methods described above.
Cookies on Customer Websites
If you are a customer using SiteForge to build your website, you may need your own cookie consent banner depending on your audience's jurisdiction:
- EU/UK visitors: Cookie consent is required under GDPR / ePrivacy Directive
- California visitors: CCPA disclosure may be required
- Other regions: Check local requirements
We recommend customers serving EU/UK audiences implement a cookie consent solution. We may offer integrated cookie banners as a feature in the future; until then, customers are responsible for compliance on their published sites.
Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected in the "Last Updated" date at the top.
