Cookies and Browser Storage

PULSATRAX uses cookies and similar browser storage to keep accounts secure, remember sessions, support app features, and operate optional third-party services.

Essential cookies

PULSATRAX uses essential session cookies for login, CSRF protection, account security, basic navigation, and keeping the app working. Without these, logged-in features such as posting, messaging, profile editing, and admin moderation may not function correctly.

  • PHP session cookie: maintains login and security state; normally expires when the browser session ends.
  • pulsatrax_trusted_device: optional trusted-login security token; up to 30 days.
  • pulsatrax_device_id: helps identify a browser for new-device security alerts; up to one year.
  • ptx_locale: remembers the selected interface language; up to one year.
  • ptx_cookie_consent: stores your optional privacy choices; up to six months.

Cloudflare may set strictly necessary security or challenge cookies when its network protection is triggered. These are used to deliver and protect PULSATRAX, not as PULSATRAX advertising consent.

Security tokens are stored in HttpOnly cookies where the browser must not expose them to page scripts. Secure cookies are used over HTTPS and SameSite controls reduce cross-site requests.

Preferences and app state

Some features use local or session browser storage for interface preferences, drafts, recent selections, media controls, call state, native-app state, and temporary workflow state. PULSATRAX Studio may also keep local project, autosave, recovery, and layout data. This data stays in the browser unless a feature also saves it to your account.

Security and abuse prevention

Cookies and logs may help detect login state, abuse patterns, rate-limit events, report handling, and suspicious activity. These are used to protect users and the platform.

Analytics

PULSATRAX does not currently use a separate visitor analytics service such as Google Analytics. Essential server, error, and security logs may still be created to operate, debug, and protect the platform. If optional analytics is introduced, this policy and the consent controls will be updated first where consent is required.

Advertising cookies

Advertising is not currently active for visitors. PULSATRAX may use Google AdSense in the future. If advertising is activated, advertising scripts and cookies remain blocked until you make an optional advertising choice.

After consent, an advertising provider may process device, browser, page, cookie, approximate-location, and interaction data to deliver, measure, and protect advertising under its own policy. Advertising is not required for core account functions, and refusing it does not disable your PULSATRAX account.

Third-party embeds and links

Pages may include YouTube videos or links to other music and video platforms. PULSATRAX blocks YouTube thumbnails and embedded players until you allow External media. Opening a normal link takes you to the external provider, where its own privacy and cookie policy applies.

Choosing Google sign-in redirects you to Google, and enabling push notifications uses your browser's push provider. Those deliberate account and notification actions are separate from optional advertising and embedded-media consent.

Your choices and withdrawal

The first time PULSATRAX needs a choice, you can accept optional technologies, reject them, or choose categories separately. Essential cookies cannot be disabled through this panel because the service depends on them.

You can reopen Cookie settings at any time and withdraw or change consent. Saving a new choice reloads the page so blocked third-party content or scripts follow the new setting. You can also delete cookies in your browser. Blocking essential cookies may log you out or break account features.

Browser controls do not remove data already stored in the PULSATRAX database. See the Privacy Policy for data requests. Cookie or privacy questions can be sent to [email protected].
