Cookie Policy

Last updated: 10 July 2026

1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how VisualForge AI Inc. ("we", "us") uses cookies and similar technologies on visualforgeai.life (the "Site"). It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy. We are accountable for personal information collected through cookies under Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA).

2. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your preferences, keep sessions secure, and — with consent — measure how visitors use pages. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, and pixel tags. In this policy, "cookies" refers to cookies and comparable technologies unless stated otherwise.

3. How we use cookies

We group cookies into four categories. When you first visit the Site, our cookie banner asks you to Accept all, Reject all, or Customise your preferences. Non-essential cookies are not placed until you consent. Your choice is stored for six months, after which the banner will appear again.

4. Cookie categories

Strictly necessary

These cookies are essential for the Site to function and cannot be switched off. They include cookies that remember your cookie consent choice and maintain basic security. They do not require consent under applicable law but we disclose them here for transparency.

  • vfai_cookie_consent — stores your cookie preference (Accept / Reject / Customise selections). Duration: 6 months. Provider: VisualForge AI (first party).

Analytics

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the Site — which pages are viewed, how long sessions last, and where traffic originates. Data is aggregated where possible. These cookies are placed only if you consent via the cookie banner or Customise panel.

  • _ga, _ga_* — Google Analytics measurement cookies used to distinguish users and sessions. Duration: up to 2 years. Provider: Google LLC. Data may be processed in the United States.
  • _gid — Google Analytics session cookie. Duration: 24 hours. Provider: Google LLC.

Advertising

Advertising cookies may be used to measure the effectiveness of campaigns and deliver relevant ads on third-party platforms. We use these only with your explicit consent. If you Reject all or do not enable Advertising in Customise, advertising cookies are not set.

  • _gcl_au — Google Ads conversion linker. Duration: 90 days. Provider: Google LLC.
  • IDE, test_cookie — Google Marketing Platform / DoubleClick cookies for ad delivery and frequency capping. Duration: up to 13 months. Provider: Google LLC.

Preferences

Preference cookies remember choices that improve your experience — such as dismissing informational notices or remembering display settings. They are optional and require consent.

  • vfai_prefs — stores optional UI preferences if enabled. Duration: 6 months. Provider: VisualForge AI (first party).

5. Third-party vendors

Where we use third-party services, those providers may set their own cookies subject to their privacy policies:

We assess vendors for reasonable data-protection practices. Cross-border processing may occur; see our Privacy Policy for safeguards.

6. How to change or withdraw consent

You can change cookie preferences at any time by:

  • Clearing cookies for visualforgeai.life in your browser settings and revisiting the Site — the consent banner will reappear.
  • Using the Customise option in the cookie banner to toggle Analytics, Advertising, and Preferences categories.
  • Contacting us at [email protected] with your request.

Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before withdrawal. Strictly necessary cookies will remain active because the Site cannot operate without them.

7. Browser controls

Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies through settings. Blocking all cookies may affect Site functionality. Consult your browser's help documentation for instructions. Industry opt-out tools for interest-based advertising include the Digital Advertising Alliance of Canada (DAAC) opt-out page and Google's Ads Settings.

8. Do Not Track

Some browsers transmit "Do Not Track" signals. There is no uniform standard for responding to these signals. We honour cookie consent choices made through our banner regardless of DNT settings.

9. Updates

We may update this Cookie Policy when we add services, change vendors, or adjust legal requirements. The "Last updated" date will change accordingly. Material updates will be posted on this page.
