Cookies

Updated at: 2026-09-20.

This Cookie Policy explains how GoMon Smart and powerful short links uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you log into our platform, manage your dashboard, or use our link management services. It also outlines the strict privacy rights of the end-users who interact with your shortened links.

1. The End-User Guarantee (People Clicking Short Links)

To protect global user privacy and guarantee speed, our dynamic redirection engine enforces a strict cookie policy for end-users: **We do not deploy or store tracking cookies, marketing beacons, or cross-site identifiers on the browsers of users who simply click a GoMon short link.** Redirection data is processed entirely in-memory and anonymized immediately.

2. Cookies Collected from Account Holders

When you create a Free Account or purchase a Paid Subscription, we deploy technical cookies on your browser to keep our service operational and secure. These cookies are categorized as follows:

A. Necessary & Functional Cookies

These cookies are crucial for the basic security and stability of your dashboard environment. Without them, the platform cannot verify your account identity or keep you securely logged in.

  • Session Authentication: Identifies your current login state so you can manage your short URLs without re-typing credentials on every page.
  • Security & Anti-CSRF: Protects your account parameters against cross-site script exploits and unauthorized configuration changes.
  • Workspace Preferences: Remembers your chosen system preferences, such as language selections, dark mode settings, or filtered analytics layout views (advanced filtering selections are saved for Paid Subscriptions).

B. Billing & Analytics Cookies (Paid Tiers)

For users holding a Paid Subscription, additional technical cookies are required to manage corporate resources:

  • Billing Platform Integration: Our secure third-party payment gateways deploy operational cookies to securely handle credit card validations, prevent bank fraud, and generate invoicing tokens.
  • Usage Analytics: Measures internal dashboard performance and pageview volume to prevent resource exploitation and calculate plan limitations.
