Cookie Policy
Last updated October 10, 2026
Cookies are small files a website stores in your browser. Similar technologies include pixels, tags, scripts, and browser storage. This page lists everything certifiedaipartners.com sets or loads, why, and how to control it. Our Privacy Policy covers the information involved.
What we use
| Type | Set by | Names | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Essential | Certified AI Partners | caip-consent-v1 (browser storage, not a cookie) | Stores your cookie choice for analytics and advertising cookies so we do not ask again, and records whether the choice came from you or from your browser's Global Privacy Control signal. | Until you clear site data |
| Essential | Certified AI Partners | caip_consent (cookie) | A copy of your cookie choice, shared with our assessment report pages on assessments.certifiedaipartners.com so they respect the same choice. It holds only two on/off flags. | 1 year |
| Essential | Certified AI Partners | caip_ft, caip_lt, caip_path (cookies) | Record the first page or campaign that brought you to the site, the most recent one that brought you back, and the path you took, so that when you fill out a form we know which campaign led to it. They hold no name, email, phone number or answer. | 400 days |
| Essential | Certified AI Partners | caip_internal (browser storage, not a cookie) | Set only on our own team's browsers so our visits are excluded from analytics and advertising measurement. Visitors never receive it. | Until cleared |
| Essential | Certified AI Partners | caip:intake:v2:draft (session storage, not a cookie) | Saves a draft of your free AI assessment answers in your browser so a page refresh does not lose them. | Up to 4 hours, or until you close the tab |
| Essential | Certified AI Partners | af_status_*, af_sub_* (session storage, not cookies) | Remember that you already submitted a form on one of our ad landing pages, so a refresh does not create a duplicate or lose your place. | Until you close the tab |
| Essential | Cal.com | Embed script (app.cal.com/embed/embed.js) and Cal.com cookies | Shows the booking calendar inside our page and keeps your booking session working. Loaded only on pages with a booking form. | Session to 1 year |
| Essential | Stripe | Provider cookies on checkout pages | Fraud prevention and keeping a ticket checkout working. | Session to 1 year |
| Analytics | Certified AI Partners | caip_fv, caip_fs (browser storage, not cookies) | Two random IDs, one per browser and one per visit, that let us count how many visitors reach each step of a short quiz page. They hold no name, email, phone number or answer. | caip_fs until you close the tab; caip_fv until you clear site data |
| Analytics | Google Analytics via Google Tag Manager | _ga, _ga_*, _gid | Counts visits and pages, tells us which pages and campaigns bring people here, and measures whether visitors start the assessment or book a call. Loads only after you choose Accept. | Up to 2 years |
| Advertising | Meta (Facebook and Instagram) | _fbp, _fbc | Measures whether our Meta ads lead to visits, assessments, and bookings, and lets Meta build audiences of people like our visitors so we can show our own ads to them. Loads only after you choose Accept. | Up to 3 months |
| Advertising | Meta (Facebook and Instagram) | Advanced matching (not a cookie) | On pages where the pixel runs, when you submit a booking form your browser sends a hashed (scrambled) version of the email and phone number you entered to Meta so the booking can be matched to the ad you saw. Happens only if you chose Accept. | Sent once per form submission |
| Third-party request | Google Fonts | Font files (no cookie) | Your browser downloads our typeface from Google's servers, which see your IP address. Google sets no cookie for this. | None |
| Embedded content | YouTube (youtube-nocookie.com) and Google Maps | Embedded video and map frames | Play an event video or show the venue map. Loaded only on event pages. Google may store data in your browser under its own policies once the embed loads or you interact with it. | Set by Google |
Google Tag Manager itself does not set cookies; it loads the Google Analytics tags above. Nothing from Google Analytics or Meta loads until you choose Accept. The Meta Pixel runs on most pages, including our ad landing pages; it is not loaded on /book. If you accept advertising cookies, our server also sends advertising measurement events to Meta through the Meta Conversions API, which does not use cookies; if you decline, our server sends nothing to Meta.
Your choices
- Accept or Choose. When you first visit, a banner asks whether we may use analytics and advertising cookies. Accept turns them on. Choose lets you turn each one on or off; saving with neither ticked keeps both off. If you close or ignore the banner, both stay off. The site works the same either way. Essential items in the table above run regardless, because the site needs them to work.
- Change your mind. Use the Manage cookies link in the footer of any page to reopen the banner and change your choice. The change takes effect on your next page load.
- Global Privacy Control. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal and you have not already made a choice, we treat the signal as a choice to keep them off, and the banner says so. You can still choose Accept if you want. We do not respond to the older Do Not Track header.
- Your browser. Every major browser lets you block or delete cookies for this site or all sites. Blocking essential cookies may stop bookings or checkout from working.
- Google Analytics. Install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, or manage ad settings at adssettings.google.com.
- Meta. Adjust how Meta uses data from other sites in your Facebook or Instagram settings under Ad preferences and Off-Facebook activity.
