This policy explains security cookies, browser storage, and external services relevant to VPNDeals.com. The cookies present can depend on security challenges, login state, and which features or external links you use.
Strictly Necessary Usage
Security and session controls help protect the site. Cookie requirements depend on their purpose and the applicable rules; visiting a page does not by itself establish consent for every optional use.
Our Cookie Footprint
Review the categories below and use your browser’s storage controls to inspect the cookies set during your own session.
Cloudflare security (__cf_bm)
Cloudflare Bot Management can set __cf_bm to help evaluate automated traffic. Cloudflare documents a 30-minute expiry after continuous inactivity. Security configurations may use other cookies as well; this is not a claim that every session contains exactly one cookie. See Cloudflare’s cookie documentation.
Analytics and optional tools
Our IP lookup, map and browser connection checks involve external services as explained in the privacy policy. A cookie-free feature can still process an IP address or other connection information. Review the relevant provider’s notice when using it.
Affiliate destinations
Following an affiliate link takes you to a provider or affiliate network. Those destinations can set cookies and process referral information under their own policies. A standard referral URL does not establish that the destination is cookie-free.
Cookie Control & Your Rights
Even with our minimal footprint, you remain in control of your browser data.
Browser-Level Controls
Most modern browsers allow you to view stored tokens and clear them upon exit.
