Cookie policy
Draft for review. This is starting text written for Pimbo and hasn't been checked by a lawyer. Review it before launch; highlighted items need a decision.
What cookies are
Cookies are small files a website stores in your browser. Pimbo uses only the few it needs to keep you signed in and to protect your account.
Cookies we set
| Cookie | What it does | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|
pimbo-session |
Keeps you signed in as you move around Pimbo. | 120 minutes after your last visit |
XSRF-TOKEN |
Stops other websites submitting forms or changes in your name. | 120 minutes after your last visit |
remember_web_… |
Only set if you tick "Keep me signed in", so you stay signed in between visits. | Up to 400 days, or until you sign out |
These cookies are strictly necessary: Pimbo can't sign you in or keep your account safe without them, so they don't need your consent.
On the contact form
Our contact form uses Google reCAPTCHA to keep out spam. On that page,
Google sets a cookie called _GRECAPTCHA, which lasts 6 months, and receives your IP address and
how you use the page. It's used only to tell people from bots, so it doesn't need your consent.
Analytics, if you allow it
The first time you open the Pimbo dashboard, we ask whether we can count your visits with Google Analytics. Only if you choose "Allow analytics" does Google Analytics load, and set these cookies:
| Cookie | What it does | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|
_ga |
Tells Google Analytics your visits come from the same browser. | 2 years |
_ga_DNB3MLR8LG |
Keeps count of your current visit. | 2 years |
Google receives the address of each dashboard page you open (without anything you've searched for or filtered by), the page's title and your IP address. It doesn't receive your name, your email or your store's details, and we've switched off its advertising features. Google Analytics doesn't run inside Shopify admin or on our own staff pages. Your answer is kept in your browser, so you're asked again in another browser.
Done: you'll be asked again the next time you open the dashboard.
Inside Shopify admin
When you use Pimbo inside Shopify admin, Shopify sets its own cookies, and Shopify's cookie policy covers those.
What we don't use
We don't use advertising or tracking cookies. Our pages do load fonts from Google Fonts, which doesn't set cookies but does receive your IP address; our privacy policy explains more.
Managing cookies
You can block or delete cookies in your browser's settings. If you block the cookies above, you won't be able to sign in to Pimbo.
