Cookie Policy
Last updated: July 4, 2026
1. What This Policy Covers
This policy explains how SplitWin (operated by SolutionC LLC) uses cookies and similar technologies on the SplitWin dashboard and through the SplitWin tracking snippet installed on customer websites.
2. SplitWin Dashboard (splitwin.ai)
The SplitWin dashboard uses the following cookies:
| Cookie | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
splitwin_session | Essential | Keeps you logged in to the dashboard | Browser session |
PHPSESSID | Essential | PHP session handler | Browser session |
These are strictly necessary cookies — the dashboard cannot function without them. No consent banner is needed for essential cookies under GDPR.
3. SplitWin Tracking Snippet (on customer websites)
The SplitWin tracking snippet that customers install on their websites does NOT use cookies. Instead, it uses:
| Storage | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
sw_vid | localStorage | Anonymous visitor ID to deduplicate sessions | Persistent (until cleared) |
sw_variants | localStorage | Remembers which A/B variant the visitor was assigned | Persistent (until cleared) |
sw_returning | localStorage | Flags return visitors (Pro plan) | Persistent (until cleared) |
4. Is localStorage the same as a cookie?
No. localStorage is not sent to the server with every request like cookies are. However, under GDPR's ePrivacy Directive, localStorage is treated similarly to cookies because it stores data on the user's device. This means:
- If your website visitors are in the EU, you should obtain consent before the SplitWin snippet runs
- SplitWin provides a consent-aware mode — the snippet checks for a consent signal before activating
- You should list SplitWin in your website's cookie/tracking consent banner
5. Consent-Aware Tracking
SplitWin's tracking snippet supports consent-aware mode. Before the snippet runs, it checks for a consent signal. Website owners can configure this to integrate with their existing cookie consent tool (e.g., CookieYes, OneTrust, Cookiebot).
To enable consent-aware mode, add data-consent="true" to the script tag:
<script src="/js/splitwin.js" data-consent="true"></script>
When consent mode is enabled, the snippet will only activate after the visitor grants consent via a splitwin_consent localStorage key or a splitwin_consent cookie set by your consent management tool.
6. Third-Party Cookies
SplitWin does not set any third-party cookies. We do not use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or any other third-party tracking on customer websites.
7. How to Delete Stored Data
Website visitors can clear SplitWin data by:
- Clearing their browser's localStorage (Settings → Privacy → Clear site data)
- Using their browser's developer tools (F12 → Application → Local Storage → delete
sw_entries)
