This Cookie Policy explains how Website Roast uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website and use our website audit tool.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember your preferences, keep you logged in, and understand how visitors use the site. Similar technologies include local storage and session storage.

How We Use Cookies

Essential Cookies

These cookies are required for Website Roast to function properly. They cannot be disabled without breaking core functionality.

• Session cookies: Keep you logged in and maintain your authentication state
• CSRF tokens: Protect against cross-site request forgery attacks on forms
• Security cookies: Help detect and prevent unauthorized access

Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors use Website Roast so we can improve our website optimization tool and user experience.

Third-Party Cookies

Some third-party services we use may set their own cookies:
