Cookie Policy
Exactly which cookies Grizzly Signal sets, what they do, and how to opt out. Short version: one first-party cookie, no advertising cookies, no third-party tracking.
Cookies we set
The Grizzly Signal pixel sets a single first-party cookie on the domain of the website where it's installed. We do not set any other cookies, and we do not deploy third-party advertising cookies through our service.
| Name | Purpose | Type | Expiry |
|---|---|---|---|
grizzly_id |
A randomly generated visitor identifier used to recognize repeat visitors and stitch their journey across sessions on the same site. Contains no personal information | First-party (set on the client's domain by our pixel) | 365 days |
Cookies we do not set
- No advertising cookies from Grizzly Signal directly. We never set Meta's
_fbp/_fbccookies — those are set by Meta's own browser pixel if a client has it installed - No analytics or marketing pixels — we don't load Google Analytics, Hotjar, Segment, or any other third-party tracker through our pixel
- No cross-site tracking cookies.
grizzly_idis set on each client's domain and cannot be read by any other site
Server-side identifiers
Our server reads cookies that are already present in the browser to forward to Meta — specifically _fbc and _fbp if Meta's pixel set them, and the fbclid URL parameter. We do not set these cookies; we read them only to enable Meta's identity matching.
GDPR, CCPA, and consent
Grizzly Signal acts as a data processor on behalf of our clients (the data controllers). Our clients are responsible for obtaining any consent required from their visitors before deploying our pixel — including:
- EU/UK visitors: cookie banner and explicit opt-in for non-essential cookies under GDPR / ePrivacy
- California visitors: a "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" link under CCPA / CPRA where required
- Other jurisdictions: whatever local consent rules apply
Most cookie consent management platforms (CookieYes, Osano, OneTrust, Cookiebot, Termly, etc.) can block or conditionally load our pixel based on a visitor's choices. Your consent banner should treat grizzly_id as a statistics / analytics cookie, not a strictly necessary one.
How to opt out
- Clear cookies in your browser settings — every browser provides a way to delete cookies for a specific site or all sites. After clearing, the next visit will receive a brand-new
grizzly_id - Use private / incognito browsing — most browsers don't persist cookies across private sessions, so a fresh
grizzly_idis created each time and discarded when the window closes - Block first-party cookies — most browsers can be configured to block cookies entirely or by site. Note this may break logins and other site features
- Browser privacy extensions (uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger, etc.) can block our pixel from loading
- Contact the site owner whose website you visited — they are the data controller and can honor a deletion request
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as our infrastructure evolves. The current version is always available at grizzlysignal.com/cookies.
