Cookie policy

This page lists every cookie smmpwr.com sets, what each one is for, and how long it lives. It is the long version of the notice you see in the cookie banner. The short version: five cookies, none of them for advertising.

1. The five cookies

  • PHPSESSID — your session. Keeps you signed in while you use the panel. Deleted when you close the browser.
  • _csrf — security. Blocks forged form submissions on your behalf. Deleted when you close the browser.
  • guest_user_first_visit — marks that a visitor has landed before, so first-visit behaviour is not repeated. Session length.
  • _usid — the panel's internal visitor identifier. Lasts one year.
  • _ppref — records which affiliate link brought you here, so the referral is credited to the right partner. Lasts one year. If you did not arrive through an affiliate link, it holds nothing useful.

2. What is deliberately absent

There are no advertising cookies, no cross-site trackers, and no social-media pixels on this site. Visitor analytics run on GoatCounter, which is cookieless and stores no personal data — that choice was made so the banner above can stay informational instead of asking for consent it does not need.

3. Third parties

Payments are processed by Cryptomus and Heleket on their own domains; any cookies set during checkout on their pages are governed by their policies, not this one. Static assets are served from a CDN (storage.perfectcdn.com), which serves files and does not set tracking cookies on this domain.

4. Controlling cookies

You can delete or block all of these in your browser settings at any time. Deleting the session cookies signs you out. Deleting _ppref removes the affiliate credit. Blocking cookies entirely will break sign-in, because the session cookie is how the panel knows who you are.

5. Where this fits

The Privacy policy covers everything else: what data the panel stores about accounts and orders, who else sees it, and how to get it removed.
