Cookie Policy

Your cookie preference

You haven't set a preference yet.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, remember your preferences, and provide information to the site owner about how the site is being used.

AnswerMetrix uses cookies on our marketing site (answermetrix.com) and our web application. This policy explains what each cookie does and how you can control them.

1. Sign-in cookies

The application uses Clerk for authentication. Authentication cookies keep the session available and support security checks. Their names, lifetime and scope depend on the active authentication configuration.

Clerk authentication cookies, including __session and __client_uatAuthentication

Support sign-in and session state in the application.

Expires: Managed by authentication and session settings; inspect your browser for the current expiry.

See Clerk’s cookie documentation. Blocking required authentication cookies can prevent sign-in.

2. Optional analytics

When GA4 is configured for this marketing website, the analytics preference above controls its loading and page-view reporting. You can change that preference here or from the footer. Declining does not automatically delete cookies already placed; use your browser controls to remove them.

_ga / _ga_* when GA4 is enabledAnalytics

Support Google Analytics measurement using browser identifiers and usage events.

Expires: Depends on the configured Google Analytics settings and browser limits.

Our app and website also contain optional usage-event reporting hooks. Availability depends on the published configuration. We do not list cookies for services that are not established by the implementation.

On customer websites, configured tools such as Google Tag Manager, GA4, Clarity or Hotjar have their own behaviour and controls. The preference on this page does not change another website’s analytics configuration.

3. Browser storage and embed behaviour

Local and session storage are different from cookies. AnswerMetrix uses them for preferences and feature state.

am_cookie_consentLocal storage

Remembers the analytics choice made on this website.

Expires: Until reset or browser site data is cleared.

theme and app preferencesLocal storage

Remember display choices and relevant interface state.

Expires: Until changed or browser site data is cleared; individual feature storage can vary.

_geo_sid and embed feature storageEmbed storage

Supports a per-tab visit identifier, recognised crawler/referral events and configured embed features such as caching.

Expires: Session storage normally lasts for the tab session; some feature flags use persistent local storage.

The SEO embed does not itself set cookies, but it can load analytics services configured by a website owner. See Security and Data Handling for event and integration details.

4. How to manage cookies in your browser

Most browsers allow you to view, delete and block cookies. The links below go to the cookie management instructions for the most common browsers:

  • Google Chrome — Settings › Privacy and security › Cookies and other site data
  • Mozilla Firefox — Settings › Privacy & Security › Cookies and Site Data
  • Apple Safari — Preferences › Privacy › Manage Website Data
  • Microsoft Edge — Settings › Cookies and site permissions › Cookies and site data

Please note that blocking all cookies will prevent you from logging in to the AnswerMetrix application, as session cookies are essential for authentication.

5. Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or applicable regulations. The "last updated" date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised. We will notify you of material changes via email or in-app notice.
