Cookie Policy
Last updated: October 2026
1. Overview
This Cookie Policy explains how AIF Trust ("we", "us", "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on aiftrust.us ("Website"). It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
We use only essential and analytics cookies. No advertising, tracking, or third-party marketing cookies.
2. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They enable the site to remember your actions and preferences. Similar technologies include localStorage, sessionStorage, and IndexedDB.
3. Categories We Use
3.1 Essential (Strictly Necessary)
These cookies are required for the Website to function. They cannot be disabled.

| cf_clearance | Cloudflare bot challenge clearance | Session | HTTP Cookie (Cloudflare) |
| __cf_bm | Cloudflare bot management | 30 minutes | HTTP Cookie (Cloudflare) |
| csrf_token | CSRF protection for form submissions | Session | HTTP Cookie (SameSite=Strict) |
3.2 Analytics (Optional)
These cookies help us understand how visitors use the Website. They are only set with your consent.
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics: distinguish users | 2 years | HTTP Cookie (Google) |
| _ga_* | Google Analytics: persist session state | 2 years | HTTP Cookie (Google) |

- No cross-site tracking cookies
- No third-party marketing/retargeting cookies
- No fingerprinting scripts
- No session replay tools (Hotjar, FullStory, etc.)
5. Consent Management
On your first visit, a consent banner appears allowing you to:
- Accept All: Enable analytics and preference cookies.
- Reject All: Only essential cookies are set.
- Customize: Choose per-category.
Your choice is stored in localStorage (cookie_consent). You can change preferences at any time by clearing localStorage or using the "Cookie Preferences" link in the footer (to be implemented).
6. Managing Cookies
You can control cookies through your browser:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions
Disabling essential cookies will break form submissions and bot protection. Disabling analytics cookies has no functional impact.
7. Platform Cookies (Customer Environments)
This policy covers the marketing website only. The AIF Trust Platform (customer-deployed) uses its own authentication tokens, session cookies, and mTLS certificates. Those are governed by the customer's own policies and our Terms of Service.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy as our cookie practices change. The "Last updated" date reflects the latest revision. Material changes will be announced via the consent banner.
