Cookie Policy

Last updated: 21 June 2026

This policy explains how AbleWidget (operated by Hypergalaxy, hello@ablewidget.com) uses cookies and similar technologies on ablewidget.com. It covers only the AbleWidget marketing website — not the widget product itself, which stores accessibility preferences locally in your visitors' browsers and sets no cookies of its own.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. They help websites remember information about your visit and improve your experience. We also use localStorage — a browser storage mechanism that works similarly to cookies but persists across browser sessions and is never sent to our server.

The cookies we use

We use two categories of cookie: necessary (always on) and analytics (requires your consent).

Necessary

These cookies are required for the site to work correctly. You cannot opt out of them.

Cookie / Storage	Set by	Purpose	Duration
aw_cookie_consent	This site	Remembers your cookie preferences (stored in localStorage, never sent to our server)	Persistent
cf_clearance	Cloudflare	Security token set by Cloudflare Turnstile on our sign-up form to prevent bot submissions	30 minutes
PHPSESSID	This site	PHP session cookie, used only on the admin section of the site. Not set on public pages.	Session

Analytics

These cookies help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. They are only loaded if you click Accept all or enable analytics in your preferences.

Cookie	Set by	Purpose	Duration
_ga	Google Analytics	Distinguishes unique users by assigning a randomly generated number as a client identifier	2 years
_ga_*	Google Analytics	Used to maintain session state	2 years
_gid	Google Analytics	Distinguishes users (short-lived)	24 hours

Google Analytics data is anonymised — we have IP anonymisation enabled and do not share individual-level data with third parties. You can also opt out globally using the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

How to manage your preferences

You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clicking in the footer of any page, or by clicking the button below:

You can also clear all stored preferences by opening your browser's developer tools, going to Application → Local Storage → ablewidget.com, and deleting the aw_cookie_consent key. The consent banner will reappear on your next visit.

Third-party services

We use the following third-party services on this website, each with their own privacy policies:

Cloudflare Turnstile — bot prevention on our sign-up form. Cloudflare Privacy Policy
Google Analytics — website analytics, loaded only with consent. Google Privacy Policy
Google Fonts — web font delivery. Fonts are loaded from Google's servers; this involves your IP address being sent to Google. Google Privacy Policy

Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
