What Are Cookies Anyway?

Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device when you visit them. Think of them as tiny notes that help the site remember who you are and what you were doing.

At ProgList Terminal, we use these tracking technologies to make your experience better. Some cookies are absolutely necessary for the site to work properly. Others help us understand how people use our financial data tools so we can improve them.

You have control over which cookies you accept. Essential ones keep the site functioning, but you can reject the rest if you prefer more privacy.

Types of Tracking We Use

We break down our tracking into four main categories. Each serves a different purpose, and not all are optional.

How Long We Keep Cookie Data

Different cookies stick around for different lengths of time. Some disappear the moment you close your browser, while others hang around for months or even years.

When you click the rejection button above, we store your preference in your browser's local storage. This means we'll remember your choice for future visits without needing to use tracking cookies.

Managing Cookies Through Your Browser

You're not stuck with our cookie settings. Every browser gives you tools to control what gets stored on your device.

Most browsers let you block all cookies, delete existing ones, or get notified before a site sets one. Just be aware that blocking essential cookies will probably break some website features.

What Cookies Actually Do Here

On ProgList Terminal specifically, cookies help us deliver financial data interpretation tools that work smoothly. Here's what we track and why it matters:

• Authentication tokens keep you logged in securely without having to re-enter credentials constantly
• Session data remembers which financial datasets you were analyzing if you navigate away temporarily
• Preference settings store your chart display options and dashboard layout choices
• Performance metrics help us identify slow-loading tools so we can optimize them
• Error tracking alerts us when something breaks so we can fix it quickly
• Usage patterns show us which features get ignored and which ones people find valuable

Without any cookies at all, you'd lose your login every time you clicked a link. With all cookies enabled, we get detailed insights into how the platform performs. The choice is yours.

Updates to This Policy

We update this cookie policy occasionally when we change how we track data or add new features. The current version you're reading was last revised in March 2025.

If we make significant changes to how we use cookies, we'll notify active users through email or a site notification. For minor clarifications or updates, we'll just update this page and change the revision date.

You can always come back to this page to review what tracking technologies we're using and how to control them.
