Cookies and browser storage
Updated 28 October 2026 · Privacy notice
Pastegram uses cookies and browser storage to provide its editors and optional account features. This page explains what the supplied site integration stores, why it does so, and how to control optional analytics.
Essential features and your saved work
Session cookies support account access and security. Browser storage holds your guest CVs, cover letters, image projects, editor preferences and local working copies. Optional offline mode can also keep site resources in your browser. Rejecting analytics does not delete this work or stop you using these features. Clearing all site data can erase local work; export anything you need first.
Storage used by the site
| Item / provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| pastegram_session · Pastegram | Login session, request security and workspace access | Session cookie; browser session restoration can retain it. Server session expiry is separately configured. |
| Pastegram_cookie_consent_v123 · local storage | Remembers your analytics choice and its date | Choice valid for 180 days; the stored record remains until replaced or browser data is cleared. |
| CVs, letters, image projects and preferences · browser storage | Requested editing, local saving, language/theme preferences and optional offline resources | Until removed in the tools, cleared by you or evicted by your browser; not a permanent backup. |
| _ga and _ga_* · Google Analytics, only after acceptance | Distinguish visits and measure site use | This integration requests 180-day expiry; use may refresh expiry and browsers can shorten it. |
| Google reCAPTCHA · Google | Abuse prevention on forms that load verification | Provider controlled; may involve Google cookies or device signals. See Google's linked information. |
| Cloudflare security services | Traffic delivery, security and challenges if enabled | Depends on active Cloudflare features. This does not mean every visitor receives a Cloudflare cookie. |
Optional Google Analytics
If the administrator enables Google Analytics, its tracking script only loads after you accept optional analytics. We do not load it merely because you view this notice, scroll or close the settings window. The configured integration excludes administration pages and removes query strings from the page location sent to Analytics. It does not deliberately send document text or images as event data.
Google processes usage, device and connection information under its own arrangements. See Google Privacy and Google cookies.
Change or withdraw your choice
Use the Cookie settings button available on public pages, then reject optional analytics or turn it off and save. This disables further collection through our Google Analytics integration and attempts to remove its first-party analytics cookies. Withdrawal does not undo information already sent. Your choice applies to this browser and origin, so another device, browser or www address may ask separately. If storage is unavailable, your choice may last only for the current page.
Browser settings can also block or delete cookies and storage. Do not delete saved documents unless you intend to remove them. Choosing Reject optional does not delete your account, documents or session cookie.
Security, Cloudflare and verification
Cloudflare delivers and protects this site. Google verification is used on certain forms. These services are separate from optional Google Analytics; the analytics switch does not disable security or verification services. Cloudflare may process traffic and, if enabled by the operator, performance telemetry. The exact cookies depend on the features and challenges served. For details see Cloudflare cookies. Changes to enabled services require a review of this notice and the consent controls.

Contact the site operator using Private feedback. Please do not send passwords or confidential CV content. Read the Privacy notice for account data, hosting, deletion and other privacy information.
Image editor masks and effect presets
When you choose Save in the advanced image editor, named masks and effect presets use local browser storage under Pastegram_masks254 and Pastegram_presets254. These libraries support editing rather than advertising or analytics. You can remove individual entries with their Delete buttons or remove the site’s local storage through browser settings. The new effect, batch, RAW and ICC workflows process the selected files locally. Clearing a local library does not delete an editable project or downloaded file that you have saved separately.
