About this policy
This cookie policy explains how the PayBlah marketing website and related browser storage work. It is a draft for product readiness and should be reviewed by qualified counsel before public launch in each territory. Related reading: Privacy Policy · GDPR & Data Protection · Terms of Service Refunds & Cancellation GDPR Data Request.
PayBlah is accounts-receivable software for B2B overdue-invoice reminders. We are not a debt-collection agency. Cookie choices on this marketing site are separate from how customer accounts and invoice data are handled inside the product (see the Privacy Policy and Data Processing Addendum).
What cookies and similar storage are
Cookies are small text files a site can place on your device. Related technologies include local storage and session storage in your browser. We use them only as described below — to run the site securely, remember a consent choice you make, and (if you allow it) understand how the marketing site is used in aggregate.
We group browser storage into:
- Essential — required for security, basic function, or to remember your cookie choice. These run without optional consent.
- Optional analytics — help us understand traffic and improve the site. These load only after you accept optional cookies. No analytics vendor has been selected yet; this policy will name any provider before optional analytics go live.
Essential cookies and storage
Essential items keep the marketing site and product sign-in flows working as designed. They are not used to build advertising profiles.
- Session continuity — so the application can recognize a signed-in browser session where applicable.
- CSRF protection — so form posts from the browser can be checked against a token the server issued, reducing cross-site request forgery risk.
- Cookie consent record — so we remember whether you chose “Accept all” or “Essential only” and do not re-prompt on every page load until you reset that choice.
If you block all cookies in your browser settings, parts of the site or product sign-in may not work. Blocking only non-essential cookies (via the controls below) does not turn off essential function.
Optional analytics
If you choose Accept all, we may load optional analytics that help us understand which pages are visited and how the marketing site performs. That category is designed to run only after your choice is stored as “all.”
You can switch to essential-only at any time using the preferences panel below. That choice is stored in the same consent record as the banner on other pages.
Illustrative cookies and storage
The table below lists known or planned browser storage used by PayBlah properties. Names and durations may change as the product hardens; treat this as an illustrative inventory for the marketing site and app cookie surface, not a guarantee of every server-side identifier.
| Name | Type | Purpose | Category | Typical duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
payblah_session |
HTTP cookie | Maintains a signed-in or server session so you stay authenticated while using the product where sessions apply. | Essential | Session (browser session) or up to 12 months for remembered consent |
csrf_cookie_payblah |
HTTP cookie | Pairs with a form or request token so the server can reject forged cross-site posts. | Essential | Session (browser session) or up to 12 months for remembered consent |
pb_cookie_consent |
localStorage | Stores your cookie choice (all or essential) and a
timestamp so the banner and preferences panel stay in sync across pages. |
Essential (preference storage) | Until you clear site data or use Reset |
| Optional analytics cookies / tags | TBD | Measure marketing-site usage in aggregate if you accept optional cookies. Provider and exact cookie names not selected yet. | Optional analytics | TBD — published before launch if analytics enabled; only after consent |
We do not list third-party advertising networks or invented analytics brands. If additional essential cookies are required for hosting, CDN, or security edge services, they will be added to this table when those vendors are chosen (see also Sub-Processors for product processing partners).
Manage your cookie preferences
Use the controls below. They write the same pb_cookie_consent localStorage
key as the site-wide cookie banner, so your choice applies across marketing pages.
Reset clears the stored preference and shows the banner again so you can choose again.
Browser and device controls
In addition to the preferences panel, most browsers let you block or delete cookies and clear local storage for a site. How you do that depends on your browser and device. If you clear storage, you may need to sign in again and re-state a cookie preference.
Industry opt-out tools and browser “Do Not Track” signals are not uniformly
standardized. We rely on the explicit choice stored in pb_cookie_consent for
optional analytics on this site
We honor choices made in our cookie banner. Global Privacy Control / DNT handling is Open decision C-GPC.
Changes to this policy
We may update this page when the product, hosting stack, or optional analytics plan changes. Material changes that introduce new optional cookies will be reflected here before those cookies are enabled. The “Last updated” line will change when a revised draft is published.
