Cookie Policy
This policy describes the cookies and browser storage that the Proxeta website actually uses, what each item is for, how long it lasts and how you can change your choice. Everything listed here was verified against the live product code.

When this policy says "cookies", it also covers local storage and similar browser storage and access technologies, not only HTTP cookies. The site does not use third-party cookies, advertising cookies, analytics cookies or tracking pixels. Website statistics are sent to Umami Cloud by a short script of our own that sets no cookies and neither stores anything in your browser nor reads anything stored there, so they do not appear below. When a page opens, the script reads only the page address and title, the referring page, the screen size, the browser language and your Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control settings; the Privacy Policy describes what is sent.
1. Categories you can choose
- Necessary. Required for sign-in, session security and remembering your cookie choice and the interface language you chose. Without them the Service does not work, so they are always on and cannot be switched off.
- Referral attribution. Optional. Stores a referral code in your browser for 30 days so that the account that invited you can receive a reward. Refused by default and only stored after you accept it.
No other category exists today. If analytics or any other technology that stores information on your device, or reads information stored on it, is ever introduced beyond what is strictly necessary, it will require a new consent version, will default to off, and will not be enabled before an explicit choice.
2. What is stored
Cookies and browser storage
| Name | Technology | Provider | Purpose | Category | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| user_id | HTTP cookie | Proxeta (first party) | Identifies your account inside the website | Necessary | Session (until the browser is closed) |
| HTTP cookie | Proxeta (first party) | Account-related interface state | Necessary | Session (until the browser is closed) | |
| access_token | HTTP cookie | Proxeta (first party) | Authenticates your requests to the Proxeta API | Necessary | Session cookie; the token itself is valid for seven days |
| __Host-proxeta_tg_binding | HTTP cookie (Secure, HttpOnly, SameSite=Lax, Path=/) | Proxeta (first party) | Binds a Telegram sign-in attempt to your browser | Necessary | 18 minutes |
| __Host-proxeta_tg_exchange | HTTP cookie (Secure, HttpOnly, SameSite=Lax, Path=/) | Proxeta (first party) | One-time ticket used to finish Telegram sign-in | Necessary | 2 minutes |
| proxeta_consent_v1 | Local storage | Proxeta (first party) | Remembers your cookie choice and its version | Necessary | Until you change it or clear browser storage |
| NEXT_LOCALE | HTTP cookie (SameSite=Lax, Path=/; Secure on HTTPS) | Proxeta (first party) | Remembers the interface language you chose (English, Russian or Ukrainian), so that links without a language prefix open in that language. Set only when you choose a language in the language menu, or when you sign in or start a payment. Until then such links follow the language your browser asks for, and nothing is stored | Necessary | 365 days |
| w3e_referral | Local storage | Proxeta (first party) | Referral attribution code | Referral attribution (optional) | 30 days, or immediately removed when you refuse or withdraw |
3. Your choice
On your first visit a cookie notice appears in the bottom-right corner of the screen (on mobile it is a full-width sheet). It offers two equally sized choices — Accept all and Necessary only — plus a Settings action for a granular choice. Nothing optional is stored before you make that choice, and the optional category is never pre-selected.
If you arrive through a referral link before deciding, the referral code is kept only in memory for the current page and is not written to browser storage. It is persisted only if you accept referral storage, and it is discarded otherwise.
4. Changing or withdrawing your choice
Use Cookie Settings in the site footer at any time. Withdrawal takes effect immediately: the optional referral item is removed from your browser storage without a page reload, and the Service stops using it. Necessary items remain, because the Service cannot operate without them.
You can also delete or block cookies and local storage in your browser settings. Blocking necessary items will prevent sign-in and other parts of the Service from working.
5. Server-side records
Separately from browser storage, the Service keeps technical server logs (IP address, request path, timestamp, status, user agent) and, for a short period, rate-limiting counters derived from a one-way hash of the requesting IP address. These are described in the Privacy Policy.
