Cookie Policy
Last Updated: November 4, 2025 Anysite, Inc. (“Anysite”, “we”, “us”, “our”) operates the website anysite.io (the “Website”) and provides access to the anysite.io data platform and APIs (the “Platform”) along with related services (collectively, the “Services”). This Cookie Policy (“Policy”) explains how and why we use cookies and similar technologies on the Website and the Platform. Capitalized terms used but not defined here have the meanings in our General Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) and Privacy Policy. By using the Website/Platform, you agree to this Policy. Where law requires consent for non‑essential cookies, we will ask for it via our cookie banner or Cookie Settings. If you do not agree, adjust your preferences or disable cookies in your browser; note that essential cookies are required for the Website/Platform to function. (Modeled on the structure of Apify’s Cookie Policy.)Table of Contents

1) What are cookies and similar technologies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device that allow a website to recognize your browser. They perform functions like keeping you signed in, remembering preferences, and measuring site performance. We may also use similar technologies such as pixels, web beacons, SDKs, local storage, and server‑side tracking to achieve comparable purposes. Authoritative guidance generally defines cookies as device‑stored identifiers used for functionality, analytics, or advertising.2) What we collect via cookies
When you access the Website or Platform, cookies and similar technologies may collect or help us infer information such as device/browser data, IP address, referrer/UTM information, timestamps, pages viewed, session identifiers, and your cookie preferences. Aggregated analytics help us understand trends and improve Services; we do not tie analytics data to your identity unless you have an account and you consent or it is strictly necessary to provide the service (e.g., keeping you signed in). (Adapted from the public Apify Cookie Policy.)3) Cookie categories we use
We classify cookies into the following categories. Depending on your jurisdiction and choices, some categories may be disabled unless you consent.Strictly Necessary
Required for core functionality such as authentication, security, network management, and remembering your privacy choices. These cannot be switched off through our banner because the site won’t work properly without them. (Comparable definitions appear in the Apify Cookie Policy.)Performance/Analytics
Help us measure traffic and usage to improve the Website/Platform. Data is typically aggregated.Functional
Enable enhanced features or personalization (e.g., chat/support widgets, saved preferences).Advertising/Targeting
May be set by us or partners to build a profile of your interests and show relevant ads on other sites. If disabled, you may see less targeted ads. (Category naming mirrors common practice and the Apify structure.)We do not use every category in all regions at all times. The exact cookies in use can change as we evolve our Services. For the most up‑to‑date inventory and your current consent state, use Cookie Settings (see Section 6).
4) How long do cookies last?
- Session cookies expire when you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies remain until they expire or you delete them; many analytics/functional cookies last from 1 day to up to 24 months, depending on provider settings. (This session vs. persistent distinction aligns with common practice and the Apify Cookie Policy’s approach to lifetimes.)
5) Legal basis and consent (EEA/UK)
Where required by the ePrivacy rules (implemented in the EU and UK), we seek your consent before storing or accessing non‑essential cookies. You can withdraw or change consent at any time via Cookie Settings. Essential cookies may rely on our legitimate interests to provide the service you request. Guidance from regulators emphasizes clear disclosure and active, informed consent for non‑essential cookies.6) Your choices: Cookie Settings and browser controls
Cookie Settings (recommended)
Manage granular preferences for each category via the cookie banner when you visit the Website/Platform. Updating your settings will place a cookie to remember your choices.Browser settings
Most browsers let you block/delete cookies or set site‑specific rules.Opt‑out tools (where available)
Some third parties provide their own opt‑out pages for analytics/advertising. Please note these tools are offered by third parties; your choices may be browser‑specific.7) Global Privacy Control (GPC) and “Do Not Track”
Where applicable (e.g., California), we respect a valid Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal as a request to opt out of “sale” or “sharing” of personal information (including for cross‑context behavioral advertising). GPC is recognized by the California Attorney General as an opt‑out mechanism under the CCPA/CPRA framework. If we detect GPC, we will treat it as a global opt‑out for the browser that sends it, and we won’t set or will disable any cookies involved in “selling” or “sharing” data under those laws. (“Do Not Track” signals are not consistently honored across the industry, but GPC is supported under California guidance.)8) Third‑party cookies
Some cookies may be set by third parties (e.g., cloud hosting, analytics, support chat, A/B testing, performance monitoring, advertising networks). These parties may process data for their purposes consistent with their privacy policies. We require service providers acting on our behalf to commit to confidentiality and appropriate safeguards. For vendors acting as our sub‑processors, see Sub‑processors and our Data Processing Addendum.9) Example cookie inventory

10) Managing cookies may impact functionality
