This Cookie Policy explains how Trilot LLC ("Trilot") uses cookies and similar technologies on trilot.com (the "Site"). It is a companion to our Privacy Policy. Where this policy and the Privacy Policy overlap, the Privacy Policy governs.
We have written this in plain English. If anything is unclear, email privacy@trilot.com.
i. what cookies are
A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your device when you visit. Cookies allow the site to remember information about you (such as a preference, a login state, or that you’ve dismissed a banner) between page loads or visits. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, and pixel tags. We refer to all of these collectively as "cookies" in this policy.
Cookies can be set by:
- The site you’re visiting (first-party cookies). trilot.com sets a small number of first-party cookies.
- A third party loaded by the site (third-party cookies). Some sub-processors we use (for example, Cloudflare) may set third-party cookies for purposes like service security.
You can clear cookies from your browser at any time. Most browsers let you block cookies entirely or allow them only for specific sites.
ii. cookies we use
Trilot uses a minimal set of cookies. Every cookie listed below has a stated purpose and a defined lifetime.
Strictly necessary
These cookies are essential for the Site to function. They cannot be disabled without breaking parts of the Site.
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|
__cf_bm | Cloudflare (third party) | Bot management — distinguishes humans from automated traffic | 30 minutes (rolling) |
cf_clearance | Cloudflare (third party) | Allows you to bypass Cloudflare bot challenges after passing them once | 30 days |
cf-turnstile-response | Cloudflare Turnstile (third party) | Verifies the form submission was made by a human; not retained server-side | Session only |
Functional
These cookies remember your preferences. They are not strictly necessary, but disabling them may make the Site less convenient.
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|
trilot_newsletter_dismissed_until | Trilot (first party) | Remembers that you dismissed the newsletter banner so we don’t show it to you for 30 days | 30 days |
trilot_lang | Trilot (first party) | Remembers your language preference (English or Arabic) if you toggle | 365 days |
Analytics
We use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which is cookieless. It does not set any cookie. It records aggregated page-view counts and approximate regions of visitors via a small script that runs on each page. No individual identifier is created or stored.
We do not use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or any cross-site tracking analytics. We do not use advertising cookies.
iii. how to manage cookies
You have several options:
Browser settings. Every major browser lets you view, manage, or clear cookies. Search your browser’s help for "cookies" — common steps:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Cookies and site data
Do-not-track signals. Most browsers offer a "Do Not Track" option. We respect Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals where applicable. We do not, however, currently change behavior based on the older DNT header, because there is no industry-wide standard for honoring it for cookieless analytics.
Clear cookies. Clearing cookies in your browser will remove the Trilot first-party cookies, which means we will treat you as a new visitor on your next session (you may see the newsletter banner again).
Block cookies entirely. If you block cookies, the strictly-necessary Cloudflare cookies will not be set, which may cause the bot-management system to challenge you more frequently before letting you submit forms.
iv. updates to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy if our use of cookies changes (for example, if we add or remove a sub-processor). The "Effective date" at the top reflects the most recent revision. If we make material changes, we will post a notice on the Site for thirty (30) days.
