Cookie Policy
Last updated: August 7, 2026
This cookie policy explains how XorCut uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit xorcut.com.
This Cookie Policy explains how XorCut ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit xorcut.com (the "Site"). It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow a site to recognize your browser, remember information about your visit, and make certain features work properly.
2. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies for the following purposes:
2.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the Site to function and cannot be switched off. They are usually only set in response to actions you take, such as logging in or setting your privacy preferences.
- Session cookie – keeps you securely logged in and maintains your session state as you navigate the Site.
- Security/CSRF cookie – helps protect your account and our forms from cross-site request forgery attacks.
- "Remember Me" cookie – if you select "Remember Me" when logging in, this cookie keeps you signed in on future visits without needing to re-enter your credentials.
2.2 Functional Cookies
These cookies allow the Site to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, personalized features.
- Language preference cookie – remembers your selected language so the Site displays in your preferred language on future visits.
2.3 Link & Referral Cookies
When you click a short link created on XorCut, a temporary referral cookie may be set to accurately record where visitors are coming from for the link creator's statistics. This cookie is short-lived and is deleted automatically shortly after it is set.
2.4 Third-Party Login Cookies
If you choose to sign up or log in using a third-party account (such as Facebook, Google, or Twitter/X), those providers may set their own cookies as part of the login process. These cookies are controlled by the third party, not by XorCut, and are subject to that provider's own cookie and privacy policies.
2.5 Advertising Cookies
Some pages on the Site — including pages you may pass through before reaching a shortened link — may display advertisements served by third-party advertising networks. These networks may set cookies to serve ads, measure ad performance, and in some cases show ads based on your browsing activity. We do not control the cookies set by third-party ad networks; please refer to the relevant network's own policy for details.
Third-party services: Cookies placed by third-party login providers or advertising networks are controlled by those providers and are subject to their own privacy and cookie policies.
3. Cookie Duration
Some cookies are "session cookies," which are deleted automatically once you close your browser. Others are "persistent cookies," which remain on your device for a set period (for example, our language preference and "Remember Me" cookies) or until you delete them manually.
4. Managing Cookies
Most web browsers let you control cookies through their settings. You can typically:
- View what cookies are stored and delete them individually
- Block third-party cookies
- Block cookies from particular sites
- Block all cookies from being set
- Delete all cookies when you close your browser
Please note that if you block or delete strictly necessary cookies, some parts of the Site — such as staying logged in — may no longer work correctly.
5. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or for legal, operational, or regulatory reasons. Please revisit this page periodically to stay informed.
