Cookie Policy

Session Authentication

We use session cookies to keep you logged in and to remember your authentication status. These cookies are essential for VenueBill to function and allow you to securely access your account.

Security and CSRF Protection

We use CSRF (Cross-Site Request Forgery) protection cookies to prevent unauthorized actions on your account. These cookies verify that requests come from you and not from malicious third parties.

User Preferences

We may use cookies to store your preferences, such as your default timezone, language, or UI settings, so we can remember them on your next visit.

Analytics

With your consent, we use Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager, Microsoft Clarity, and Ahrefs Web Analytics to understand how visitors use VenueBill. These providers may use cookies, scripts, local storage, or similar technologies under their own policies. They remain off until you allow Analytics cookies.

Marketing Measurement

With your consent, we use Meta Pixel and conversion tools and Google Ads conversion tracking to measure whether advertising leads to signup, trial, or paid-subscription activity. These tools remain off until you allow Marketing cookies.

Stripe (Payment Processing)

When you enter payment information, Stripe sets cookies on your device to process payments securely. These cookies are governed by Stripe's cookie policy and are not used for tracking you across other websites.

Analytics and Advertising Providers

After the applicable consent, Google, Microsoft, Ahrefs, and Meta may set or read cookies and similar technologies under their own privacy and cookie policies. VenueBill uses them for analytics and conversion measurement; we do not sell personal information to data brokers.

Browser Settings

Most browsers allow you to control cookies through your browser settings. You can:

• Accept or reject all cookies
• Accept or reject cookies by type (essential, analytics, etc.)
• Delete cookies from your device
• Set how long cookies are stored

Note: Disabling essential cookies may prevent VenueBill from functioning properly. We recommend keeping authentication and security cookies enabled.

Opt Out of Analytics

You can opt out of Analytics or Marketing cookies while keeping VenueBill functional by opening Cookie settings in the site footer. Rejecting either category prevents its trackers from loading on future page loads.

Do Not Track

If you enable Global Privacy Control or a supported "Do Not Track" signal before making a choice, VenueBill records non-essential categories as rejected and does not prompt or load those trackers. You can still make a different choice later through Cookie settings.
