What we store, and how to switch it off.
affiliate.love runs a compliant CPA marketplace. Cookies are part of how that works. They keep you signed in. They prove which publisher earned a sale. This page lists every one we set, in plain words.
Nothing here is buried. Read the table, then set your own answer. No dark patterns.
The four groups
Each cookie has one job.
We group cookies by what they do, not by who made them. Only the first group runs without your say-so.
-
Strictly needed
No consent needed
These keep the site working. They hold your sign-in session, your language and basic security checks. Turn them off and the dashboard cannot log you in.
-
Tracking links
Set on click
A tracking link is the URL a publisher shares. Clicking one writes a click ID so a later sale is paid to the right partner. It records the click, never the person's name.
-
Site stats
Consent first
These count page views in aggregate. They show us which campaign pages get read and where people drop off. We store counts, not profiles.
-
Preferences
Consent first
These remember small choices you make. Your cookie answer itself lives here. So does any filter you pin on the campaign browser.
Named cookies
The full list, with how long each one lasts.
Every cookie below is set by our own domain. We add none for ad networks. If this list changes, the date at the top of the page changes with it.
| Cookie | Group | Lifetime | Set by |
|---|---|---|---|
| al_session | Strictly needed | Session | First party |
| al_consent | Preferences | 6 months | First party |
| al_click | Tracking links | 30 days | First party |
| al_campaign | Tracking links | 30 days | First party |
| al_stats | Site stats | 13 months | First party |

Your controls
Four ways to change what we store.
Consent is a choice you can undo. Take any of these routes. None of them costs you access to the marketplace.
Our wider data rules sit in the privacy notice and the compliance standards we hold partners to.
-
Answer the banner
The banner on your first visit sets everything except the needed group. You can decline and still browse every campaign page.
-
Change your mind later
Clear this site's cookies in your browser. The banner returns on your next visit and your new answer replaces the old one.
-
Use browser settings
Every major browser can block or wipe cookies per site. Look under privacy or site settings. Blocking the needed group will break sign-in.
-
Ask us directly
Write to us and we will tell you what is stored against your account. We will delete it on request where the law allows.
Common questions
Questions publishers ask us first.
-
Do you sell what cookies collect?
No. Click and campaign data is used to pay partners and to stop fraud. We do not sell it on to data brokers.
-
Will blocking cookies break my payouts?
Blocking them in your own browser does not affect your earnings. Payouts follow the clicks your audience makes, not your own session.
-
Do advertisers get a cookie on my site?
Only through the tracking link you place. Advertiser tags are vetted before a campaign goes live under our compliance rules.
-
How long is a click credited?
Each campaign lists its own window. The click cookie lasts 30 days unless the advertiser sets a shorter term.
More on approvals and payment timing sits in the publisher FAQ.
Still unsure what we hold on you?
Ask a person. Our partner team answers cookie and data questions in writing, usually within two working days.
Written questions go to [email protected]. This policy was last reviewed on 7 August 2026.
