Cookies
Cookies are small files a website keeps in your browser. We use the ones we need to keep you signed in. We use analytics cookies only if you say yes.
Your choice
You haven't chosen yet, so analytics are off.
Cookies we always use
The site doesn't work without these, so they don't need your permission. They are not used to follow you.
| Name | What it does | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|
| cm_session | Keeps you signed in to ClearMakes. | Until you sign out, or 7 days |
| cm_consent | Remembers whether you said yes or no to analytics, so we don't ask on every page. | 12 months |
| Paddle checkout | Only on payment pages. Paddle, who handles our payments, uses its own cookies to take the payment safely and stop fraud. | Set by Paddle |
Analytics, only if you say yes
These show us how people use clearmakes.com and the sign-in page, so we can make them better. Microsoft Clarity also records how you move around a page (clicks, scrolling and mouse movement) so we can see where people get stuck. It hides what you type. If you say no, Clarity doesn't load at all, and Google Analytics sets no cookies.
| Name | What it does | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|
| _ga, _ga_* | Google Analytics. Counts visits and shows which pages people read. | Up to 2 years |
| _clck | Microsoft Clarity. Recognises the same browser when it comes back. | 1 year |
| _clsk | Microsoft Clarity. Joins the pages of one visit together. | 1 day |
| CLID | Microsoft Clarity (set on clarity.ms). Recognises the same browser across sites that use Clarity. | 1 year |
The signed-in ClearMakes app doesn't load any analytics.
