Last updated: 30 July 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how ProbityGRC ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website and use the Probity platform.
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function correctly, improve performance, and provide information to site operators. Cookies may be set by the website you are visiting ("first-party cookies") or by third-party services that appear on the page ("third-party cookies").
Cookies can be "session" cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or "persistent" cookies, which remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them manually.
2. Essential Cookies
The cookies listed below apply to the authenticated Probity platform (the signed-in application). This marketing website itself sets no cookies.
Essential cookies are strictly necessary for the operation of the Probity platform. Without these cookies, core functionality such as logging in and navigating secure areas would not be possible. These cookies do not require your consent.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| session_id | Maintains your authenticated session while you use the platform. | Session |
| csrf_token | Protects against cross-site request forgery attacks by validating form submissions. | Session |
| auth_token | Stores a secure authentication token to keep you logged in across requests. | 14 days |
| cookie_consent | Records your cookie consent preferences. | 1 year |
3. Analytics Cookies
This website does not currently set any analytics or advertising cookies. We do not use Google Analytics or any comparable third-party tracking on probitygrc.com, and no cookie is written to your browser when you simply browse this site.
If we introduce website analytics in future, we will update this policy before doing so and, where consent is required, ask for it first.
4. Preference Cookies
Preference cookies allow the platform to remember choices you have made, such as your preferred language, display settings, or dashboard layout. These cookies enhance your experience but are not strictly necessary for the platform to function.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| user_preferences | Stores your display and interface preferences (e.g., theme, language). | 1 year |
| sidebar_state | Remembers the collapsed or expanded state of the navigation sidebar. | Session |
5. How to Manage Cookies
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically find these controls in the "Settings", "Preferences", or "Privacy" section of your browser. Common options include:
- Blocking all cookies or only third-party cookies.
- Deleting cookies that have already been set.
- Configuring your browser to notify you before a cookie is placed.
Please note that blocking or deleting essential cookies may prevent you from logging in or using key features of the Probity platform.
