1. What cookies and similar technologies are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website. Similar technologies include your browser’s local storage and scripts loaded from other websites. In this policy we call all of them “cookies”.
Cookies set by Acquireman are “first-party”. Cookies set by another company whose feature we use (for example, Calendly) are “third-party” and are governed by that company’s own policy.
2. Our approach
- We use strictly necessary cookies so the website works and stays secure. These do not require consent, but we tell you about them here.
- Optional cookies are off by default. We load them only if you choose “Accept all” or switch them on in your preferences.
- We do not use advertising cookies or analytics cookies, and we do not sell or share cookie data for advertising. If we ever want to add them, we will update this policy and ask for your consent first.
- To understand how the website is used, we use Vercel Web Analytics, which works without cookies and does not store anything on your device. It records anonymous totals — pages visited, referring website, approximate country, browser and device type. Visitors are counted using a temporary code that is discarded within 24 hours and is not linked to your identity or IP address, and we remove search terms from page addresses before they are recorded.
3. Cookies we use
Strictly necessary (always on)
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
sb-…-auth-token | Acquireman (via Supabase) — local storage | Keeps you signed in and protects your account. | Until you sign out or the session expires |
sb-…-code-verifier | Acquireman (via Supabase) — local storage | Completes Google sign-in securely. | A few minutes |
acq_cookie_consent | Acquireman — local storage | Remembers your cookie choices so we do not ask again on every page. | 12 months, or until this policy changes |
acq_ai_consent | Acquireman — local storage | Records that you gave consent before using Acquireman AI (version and time). | Until you withdraw it or clear your browser |
acq_ai_resume_v1 | Acquireman — local storage | Temporarily keeps your Acquireman AI conversation while you sign in, so you can continue where you left off. | Deleted when you return, or when you clear it |
| Security cookies (e.g. _vcrcs) | Vercel (our hosting provider) | Protect the website against bots and attacks, when a security check is triggered. | Short-lived; set only when a security check runs |
Functional — third-party features (optional)
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Calendly scheduling widget and its cookies | Calendly LLC (third party) | Shows the embedded calendar so you can book a call with us on our website. If you do not allow it, you can still book through a link that opens Calendly in a new tab. | Set by Calendly — see Calendly’s privacy notice |
Sign-in with Google
If you choose “Continue with Google”, you are taken to Google’s website, where Google sets its own cookies under its privacy policy.
Links to other websites
Links to LinkedIn, YouTube, Instagram, Telegram and X are ordinary links. Those services may set cookies once you visit them.
4. Your choices
When you first visit, a banner lets you Accept all, Reject optional or Manage preferences. Both main buttons are equally easy to use, and the website works if you reject optional cookies.
You can change or withdraw your choice at any time:
You can also delete cookies and local storage in your browser settings. If you block strictly necessary cookies, you may not be able to sign in or use some features.
We keep a record of your choice (an anonymous ID, the choice, the policy version and the date and time) so that we can show we respected it.
5. Changes and contact
If we change the cookies we use in a way that needs your consent, we will update this page and ask you again. For questions, contact contact@acquireman.com or see our Privacy Policy.
