Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how Braxus by BWP ("we," "our," or "Broken Wake Publishing, LLC") uses cookies and similar technologies on our website (getbraxus.com) and platform. By using Braxus, you consent to the use of cookies as described below.
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, provide functionality, and collect information about how visitors use the site. Cookies can be "session" (deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent" (remain until they expire or you delete them).
2. Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
These are required for Braxus to function. They enable core features like form submissions, chat, and site navigation.
- Session cookies — maintain your session state as you navigate the site
- Chat widget cookies — enable the live chat and AI assistant functionality
- CSRF tokens — protect against cross-site request forgery attacks
Analytics Cookies
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our website — which pages are visited, how long visitors stay, and what content is most helpful. This helps us improve the site. Google Analytics places cookies on your device, and the data collected is anonymized. You can learn more at Google's Privacy Policy.
Functional Cookies
- Theme preference — remembers your light/dark mode setting
- Form progress — remembers partially completed form data so you do not lose your progress
Payment Cookies
Our payment processor (Stripe) places cookies to process payments securely, detect fraud, and remember payment preferences. Stripe's use of cookies is governed by Stripe's Cookie Policy.
3. Third-Party Cookies
Some features of Braxus rely on third-party services that may place their own cookies:
- Google Analytics — website usage analytics
- Stripe — payment processing and fraud prevention
- Cloudflare — security, performance, and DDoS protection
- Chat Widget (Apigateway) — live chat and AI assistant functionality
4. Your Choices
Most browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings — you can block, delete, or receive alerts before cookies are placed. However, disabling essential cookies may prevent some features from functioning properly. To manage cookie preferences, visit your browser's settings or allaboutcookies.org.
5. Updates
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Continued use of Braxus after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
