How Cover My Order uses cookies and similar technologies on this website, and how you can control them.
This Cookie Policy explains how Cover My Order ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on covermyorder.com (the "Site"), and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the website function, remember your preferences, and understand how visitors use it. "Similar technologies" includes local storage, pixels, and tracking scripts that serve comparable purposes.
We manage cookie consent through a floating cookie preference widget, accessible at any time from the corner of the screen. On your first visit, non-essential cookies are not set until you provide consent. You can open the widget at any time to view, accept, reject, or update your preferences by category.
Site function, security, load balancing, and remembering your consent choice itself. Cannot be disabled.
Remember preferences — e.g. pricing display settings or last-viewed billing tab.
Google Analytics 4 and PostHog — aggregate traffic and usage patterns, to help us improve the Site.
Measures effectiveness of our own marketing. Never sold to third parties.
Functional, analytics, and marketing cookies all require your consent via the widget in Section 2. Strictly necessary cookies do not, under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR).

| Freemius checkout/session cookies | Strictly necessary / Functional | Supports purchase flow during Freemius checkout | Session to 12 months |
| Newsletter tracking pixel | Marketing | Measures if a marketing email was opened, if subscribed | Varies by provider |
Both Google Analytics 4 and PostHog cookies are set only after you consent to the "Analytics" category in the cookie widget (Section 2). Neither tool is used by us to sell your data or build advertising profiles.
We do not control these third parties' cookies directly once set, and recommend reviewing their own cookie policies — policies.google.com/technologies/cookies for Google, and PostHog's documented cookie list — for full detail.
Separately from this website, the Cover My Order plugin, once installed on your own WooCommerce store, may set its own cookies on your storefront — for example, to manage the shipping protection checkout widget or a claims-portal session. This is standard WordPress/WooCommerce behavior on your own site, governed by your own store's cookie and privacy policy, not this one. See Part B of our Privacy Policy for more on this division of responsibility.
Because specific third-party cookies can change as we update our tools and integrations, contact us at support@covermyorder.com if you'd like the current, itemised list of cookies in active use beyond the categories described above.
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies and technologies we use, or for legal reasons. We'll update the "Last updated" date above when we do.
