Cookie Policy
Last updated: 27 April 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how CheckSpent uses cookies and similar technologies on checkspent.com. It complements our Privacy Policy and should be read alongside it.
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site function, remember your preferences, and measure usage. Similar technologies (such as browser local storage) may be used for the same purposes and are covered by this policy.
2. Categories We Use
CheckSpent uses two categories of cookies and similar technologies.
Strictly necessary cookies (always active)
Required to operate the website, remember session state, process payments, and record consent at checkout. These do not require your consent and cannot be disabled. Examples include the entry that stores your cookie consent choice (checkspent_cookie_consent in browser local storage).
Analytics cookies (consent-based)
Aggregated, anonymised measurement of usage patterns. We currently use Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity. We do not use third-party advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. These cookies are only set after you give explicit consent via our cookie banner.
3. Legal Basis
For users in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and other jurisdictions requiring prior consent under Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive 2002/58/EC and corresponding national law, analytics cookies are only set after explicit opt-in via our cookie banner.
For users in other jurisdictions (including Australia), analytics cookies may be set in accordance with our legitimate interest in operating and improving the service. You can still disable them at any time via the cookie preferences link in our footer or via your browser settings.
4. How To Manage Your Preferences
You can change your preferences at any time by clicking the “Cookie preferences” link in the website footer. This re-opens the consent banner so you can accept or reject analytics cookies. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before withdrawal.
You can also disable cookies via your browser settings. Note that some site features may not function correctly if strictly necessary cookies are disabled.
5. Third-Party Providers We Currently Use
| Provider | Purpose | Retention |
|---|---|---|
| Google Analytics (Google LLC) | Aggregated, anonymised usage analytics | Up to 14 months |
| Microsoft Clarity (Microsoft Corporation) | Session-level usage analytics and heatmaps | Up to 12 months |
| Stripe (Stripe Inc.) | Checkout session, payment fraud prevention | Session only |
The list of providers may change over time as our services evolve. Material changes will be reflected in this policy with an updated “Last updated” date.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Material changes will be indicated by an updated “Last updated” date at the top of this page.
