Terms of Use & Privacy Policy
Executive Summary
CookieCentral is a SaaS platform that lets small-business website owners create a compliant cookie-consent banner and view high-level analytics. The Terms of Use spell out the contractual relationship, acceptable use, payment, warranties and liability limits, while the Privacy Policy explains what personal data you collect, why you collect it, how long you keep it, the rights users have (GDPR & CCPA), and how cookies are deployed. The wording and structure below incorporate guidance from GDPR privacy-notice principles (gdpr.eu), EU cookie-law requirements, CCPA disclosure rules, SaaS contract norms, and data-retention best practices.
