Cookie Policy
Effective Date: March 3, 2026
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, provide analytics information, and remember your preferences. This Cookie Policy explains how RootVaultAI LLC, doing business as RegisteredBrands.AI ("Company," "we," "our," or "us"), uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on the RegisteredBrands.AI platform (the "Service").
2. Types of Cookies We Use
2.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the Service to function and cannot be disabled. They include session cookies for authentication (maintaining your login state), CSRF protection tokens that prevent cross-site request forgery attacks, and load balancing cookies that ensure reliable service delivery. Without these cookies, the Service cannot operate properly. They do not store any personally identifiable information beyond what is necessary for session management.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| session_token | Authentication session management | Session / 7 days |
| csrf_token | Cross-site request forgery protection | Session |
| oauth_state | OAuth authentication flow state | 10 minutes |
2.2 Functional Cookies
Functional cookies remember your preferences and settings to provide a more personalized experience. These include theme preference cookies (light/dark mode selection), language preferences, and onboarding state cookies that track your progress through the guided setup process. These cookies enhance your experience but are not strictly necessary for the Service to function.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| theme | Stores light/dark mode preference | 1 year |
| onboarding_complete | Tracks onboarding tour completion | 1 year |
| cookie_consent | Stores your cookie consent preferences | 1 year |
2.3 Analytics Cookies
We use privacy-focused analytics to understand how visitors interact with the Service. Our analytics solution collects anonymized usage data including page views, session duration, referral sources, and general geographic region. We do not use Google Analytics or any advertising-based analytics platform. Our analytics do not track individual users across websites, do not use fingerprinting, and do not share data with third-party advertisers.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| _rb_analytics | Anonymous session tracking for usage analytics | 24 hours |
3. Cookies We Do Not Use
RegisteredBrands.AI does not use third-party advertising cookies, cross-site tracking cookies, social media tracking pixels, or retargeting/remarketing cookies. We do not participate in advertising networks and do not sell or share cookie data with advertisers. We do not use browser fingerprinting techniques to identify users.
4. Third-Party Cookies
When you make a payment through Stripe, Stripe may set its own cookies to process the transaction securely and prevent fraud. Stripe's use of cookies is governed by Stripe's Cookie Policy. We do not control Stripe's cookies and recommend reviewing their policy for details. No other third-party services used by the platform set cookies on your device.
5. Managing Cookies
You can control and manage cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, delete, and block cookies from specific or all websites. Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from using the Service, as authentication and security features depend on them.
Instructions for managing cookies in common browsers:
If you use the Service through an AI agent or automated system, cookies may not apply in the same way. API-based interactions use token-based authentication rather than cookies.
6. Local Storage and Similar Technologies
In addition to cookies, we may use browser local storage and session storage for similar purposes, such as storing your theme preference, caching API responses for performance, and maintaining client-side application state. These technologies function similarly to cookies but are managed differently by your browser. You can clear local storage and session storage through your browser's developer tools or settings.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Material changes will be communicated via prominent notice on the Service. The "Effective Date" at the top of this policy indicates when it was last revised.
