Cookie Notice

Effective as of September 11th, 2025. 

Introduction

The following technologies are used by Client-Side Development, Inc. ("c/side," "we", "us" or "our"), our service providers, and our advertising partners to automatically collect information (including the device data and usage data described in our Privacy Policy) through our websites and application (the “Sites”) and in connection with our marketing activities:

  • Cookies, which are text files that websites store on a visitor’s device to uniquely identify the visitor’s browser or to store information or settings in the browser for the purpose of tracking user activity and patterns, helping the visitor navigate between pages efficiently, remembering preferences, improving the visitor’s browsing experience, and enabling functionality, and analytics.  Cookies used on our site include cookies that we serve as well as cookies served by third parties that we work with to enable the services they provide, such as analytics services that track traffic and usage.  You can learn more about cookies and how to control them at www.allaboutcookies.org.
  • Pixels, also known as web beacons or clear GIFs, which are embedded in software code or invisibly in image files within webpages or HTML formatted emails and used to demonstrate that a webpage or email was accessed or opened, or that certain content was viewed or clicked, typically to compile statistics about usage of websites and the success of marketing campaigns. We may use pixels to collect information about your interactions with our email messages, such as the links you click on and whether you open or forward a message, the date and time of these interactions and the device you use to read emails.
  • Browser web storage (including HTML5), also known as locally stored objects, functions like cookies but enables the storage of a larger amount of data. 
  • Session replay. We use third party software code to record users’ interactions with the Sites in a manner that allows us to watch and analyze visual reconstructions of those user sessions. The replays include users’ clicks, mouse movements, scrolls, and keystrokes during those sessions. These replays help us diagnose usability problems and identify areas for improvement. For example, we partner with Posthog for these purposes. For more information about how Posthog collects and uses your data, please visit https://posthog.com/privacy
  • Chatbot features.  The Sites provide users with chatbots that users can use to get information and support. We and the third parties that support these features monitor and record the information you submit to the chat to enable the chat and for the other purposes described in our Privacy Notice. When you use these features, you are not communicating with a human. 

The categories of data collected by these technologies are described in more detail in the automatic collection section of our Privacy Policy
