Cookies and browser storage

Last updated: November 13, 2026

This page explains browser storage used in connection with MySafeInfo and its payment provider.

Site functions

The site may use cookies for functions such as protecting form submissions. Dataset download forms do not save your pass key in cookies or browser storage. The key remains in the field while the page is open and is sent with the download request. The datasets list remembers your search, category, sort and page while the tab is open, so "Back to datasets" returns you to them.

If you close the contributor program’s invitation, submit to the program, or buy a pass, this browser’s local storage remembers not to show the invitation again. It stores only which invitation to hide, not your name, email, or submission.

Free tools

The test data generator keeps your setup in this browser's local storage. Your Data Pass key stays in this tab only, unless you choose Remember on this device; then it stays in this browser until you choose Forget this key. A result sent from one tool to another waits in the browser's storage until the next tool opens it, for an hour at most.

Usage and diagnostics

We use Microsoft Azure Application Insights to understand page visits, requests, and errors. Browser telemetry includes identifiers used to distinguish recorded users and sessions. Whether those identifiers are stored in cookies depends on the analytics configuration and your browser settings.

We do not use this information for advertising. See our privacy policy for how we handle usage information.

Stripe checkout

When you buy a pass, you leave MySafeInfo for Stripe checkout. Stripe uses its own cookies and similar technologies to operate checkout and help prevent fraud. Its policies explain those uses.

Your browser controls

You can view, block, or delete cookies and other site storage in your browser settings. Blocking storage or scripts can affect analytics and some site or payment functions.
