Writesimpli ("we," "our," or "us") uses cookies and similar technologies on our website. This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies, how they help us improve your experience, what your choices are regarding cookies, and how you can manage them.
This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which provides more information about how we collect, use, and share your personal information.
2. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, mobile phone) when you visit certain websites. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and provide information to the website owners. Cookies can be "persistent" or "session" cookies:
Persistent cookies remain on your device after you close your browser until they expire or you delete them.
Session cookies are temporary and are deleted from your device once you close your browser.
Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We may use other similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons (also known as "tracking pixels" or "clear gifs"). These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enable us to recognize when someone has visited our website. This allows us, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within our website to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to our website from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to improve site performance, and to measure the success of email marketing campaigns.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
We use four main types of cookies on our website, categorized based on their function:
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for you to browse the website and use its features, such as accessing secure areas of the site. Without these cookies, services you have asked for cannot be provided. These cookies don't collect information about you that could be used for marketing or remembering where you've been on the internet.
Preference Cookies
Also known as "functionality cookies," these cookies allow a website to remember choices you have made in the past, like language preferences, login information, or your username. These cookies allow us to offer you enhanced and more personalized features.
Statistics Cookies
Also known as "performance cookies," these cookies collect information about how you use a website, like which pages you visited and which links you clicked on. These cookies help us improve our website and services. They don't collect information that identifies you personally and are only used to improve how our website works.
Marketing Cookies
These cookies track your online activity to help advertisers deliver more relevant advertising or to limit how many times you see an ad. These cookies can share that information with other organizations such as advertisers. This is a type of "tracking" which you can opt out of through our cookie banner and settings.
4. Purpose of Our Cookies
We use cookies on our website for various purposes, including:
Authentication and security: To identify you when you log in to our website and help ensure the security of your account.
Preferences: To remember information about your browser and your preferences.
Analytics: To understand how visitors interact with our website, which pages are most frequently visited, and to improve our website and services.
Service: To tell us if you have seen our cookie notice and to help us remember your preferences if you choose to disable certain types of cookies.
Session management: To ensure that your session stays active during your visit and to prevent disruptions.
Writesimpli uses cookies in a privacy-focused way, minimizing data collection while ensuring a smooth experience on our platform. Our AI-assisted writing features require some cookies to function properly, but we've designed our system to respect your privacy while delivering these advanced capabilities.
5. Third-Party Cookies
In addition to our own cookies (first-party cookies), we may also use various third-party cookies to report usage statistics, deliver advertisements, and so on. These cookies may be placed on your device when you visit our website or when you interact with certain features that integrate with third-party services.

Managing Cookies Through Your Browser
Most web browsers allow you to manage your cookie preferences. You can set your browser to refuse cookies, or to alert you when cookies are being sent. The methods for doing so vary from browser to browser, and from version to version. You can however obtain up-to-date information about blocking and deleting cookies via these links:
Please note that if you choose to block all cookies (including essential cookies), you may not be able to access all or parts of our website and some features may not function properly.
Do Not Track Signals
Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" feature that signals to websites that you visit that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. Due to the lack of a common understanding of how to interpret the DNT signal, Writesimpli does not currently respond to browser DNT signals. We continue to monitor developments around this technology and may revisit this approach in the future.
