Cookie Policy
Last updated: April 23, 2026
1. Why we use cookies
PayCall.ai uses cookies and similar storage technologies (together, “cookies”) to run the Service securely, remember essential preferences, and—only if you allow—to measure traffic with analytics.
This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy and the cookie banner shown on your first visit.
2. Essential cookies
Essential cookies are required for core functionality. They typically support authentication, security, session continuity, and basic UI preferences (for example language). You cannot disable these in our cookie banner without affecting sign-in, security, or core features.
3. Analytics cookies
If you choose “Accept analytics”, we may load Google Analytics to understand aggregate traffic, popular pages, and broad usage patterns. Analytics cookies are not placed if you choose “Only essential”.
You can change your choice at any time using “Cookie settings” in the site footer.
4. Consent and storage
Your choice is stored in both local storage and a first-party cookie so we can respect it on return visits. The consent record includes a timestamp and whether analytics was enabled.
5. Managing cookies in your browser
Most browsers let you block or delete cookies. If you block essential cookies, parts of the Service (including sign-in) may not work correctly.
6. Updates
We may update this Cookie Policy when our product, analytics setup, or legal obligations change. Material updates will be reflected by changing the “Last updated” date above.
