This Cookie Policy explains the cookies and browser storage used on the blockforgeo.net website and in the blockforgeo.net workspace, both operated by CALDRIVO GLOBAL INC. In short: the website keeps at most two small functional settings in your browser, the signed-in workspace uses two essential cookies, and our payment processor’s payment page may set its own cookies for fraud prevention and security. We use no advertising, tracking or analytics cookies, so there is nothing to opt out of and no cookie banner to click through.
What cookies and browser storage are
A cookie is a small text file that a website asks your browser to save and to send back with later requests to the same site. Websites use cookies to keep you signed in, to protect forms against misuse and to remember settings. First-party cookies are set by the site you are visiting; third-party cookies are set by a different domain.
Browsers also offer similar storage that works without cookies, called localStorage:
- localStorage keeps small pieces of data for a website with no expiry date, until you or your browser delete them.
Unlike cookies, localStorage is not sent to our servers with your requests. It stays on your device and are read only by our own pages, inside your browser. In this policy, "cookies" covers both cookies and these similar technologies.
What the website stores
The public website at blockforgeo.net, including the English and Japanese pages, the free preview mode, our checkout page and the policy pages, sets no cookies. It saves at most the two items below in your browser, and each one is saved only after you make the choice it remembers:
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
bf-lang | localStorage (first party) | Remembers whether you chose English or Japanese with the language switch (EN / 日本語), so that later visits open in that language. Saved only when you click the switch. Value: en or ja. | Until you delete it (no automatic expiry) |
bf-theme | localStorage (first party) | Remembers whether you chose the light or the dark theme with the theme button. Saved only when you click the button. Value: light or dark. | Until you delete it (no automatic expiry) |
These items contain no personal information, are never sent to our servers, and are not used to identify or track you.
Your language choice also decides which currency you see. English pages show blockforgeo.net Pro at US$99 per year in US dollars (USD); Japanese pages show ¥16,999 per year in Japanese yen (JPY), including consumption tax. You are always charged in the currency shown at checkout.
Cookies in the signed-in workspace
When you sign in to the workspace to generate assets, check your credits or manage billing, we set two first-party cookies. Both are strictly necessary: the workspace cannot work securely without them.
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Session cookie | First-party cookie, strictly necessary | Keeps you signed in as you move between pages, so we know which account your generations, credits and billing settings belong to. It holds a random session identifier, not your password or card details. | Until you sign out or your sign-in session expires |
| CSRF-protection cookie | First-party cookie, strictly necessary | Holds a random security token that we check whenever you take an action, such as starting a generation, changing billing settings or cancelling your subscription. This blocks cross-site request forgery, where another website tries to act in your account without your knowledge. | For the length of your sign-in session |
We do not use these cookies for advertising, analytics or tracking, and we do not share them with anyone.
Payment processor cookies at checkout
Our own checkout page, where you review the plan and accept the terms, sets no cookies. When you start the 1-hour free trial, you enter your card details on the secure payment page of our third-party, PCI DSS–compliant payment processor. That page may set its own cookies and use similar technologies to detect fraud, verify payments and keep the transaction secure. These are third-party cookies: the processor controls them and decides how long they last, and we cannot read them. The processor describes them in the privacy and cookie notices linked from its payment page. If you block them, you may not be able to complete payment.
We never see or store your full card number. From the processor we receive only the card brand, the last four digits, the expiry date and your billing country and postal code.
A payment card is required to start the trial, and nothing is charged during the trial. Exactly 1 hour after the trial starts, your card is automatically charged US$99 (USD) for 12 months of blockforgeo.net Pro, unless you cancel before the trial ends. The subscription then renews automatically every 12 months at the then-current annual price until you cancel, and we email a reminder at least 7 days before each renewal charge. Sales tax or VAT may apply depending on where you live. Any tax is shown at checkout before you confirm. Charges appear on your card statement as "BLOCKFORGE". Within 30 days after any annual charge, our 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee applies: Full refund on unused credits. No questions asked. See our Refund Policy and Cancellation Policy.
Google Fonts
To display our typefaces, the website loads font files from Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com). When a page loads, your browser connects directly to Google’s servers, and Google receives your IP address, information about your browser and device (the user-agent string) and the address of the page that requested the font. We do not set any cookie through this request, and according to Google, requests to the Google Fonts API are made without cookies. Google handles this information under its own privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy.
If you prefer that your browser does not connect to Google, block those two domains in your browser or with a content blocker. The site keeps working and uses your device’s built-in fonts instead.
This section and the payment processor section above also tell you what information your browser sends to third parties, who receives it and why.
No advertising, tracking or analytics cookies
We use no advertising, tracking or analytics cookies, on the website or in the workspace.
- No advertising cookies, advertising networks or retargeting.
- No analytics or audience-measurement tools, such as Google Analytics, and no session recording.
- No social-media pixels, "like" buttons or embedded social plugins that track you.
- No device fingerprinting and no tracking across other websites.
Every item on this page is either strictly necessary to provide a service you asked for (signing in, protecting your account, processing your payment safely) or remembers a choice you made yourself and is saved only after you make it. Under the EU and UK ePrivacy rules, consent is not required for storage that is strictly necessary to provide a service you ask for, and this includes storage that remembers a preference you set yourself, such as your language. That is why we do not show a cookie consent banner.
If we ever want to add cookies that are not strictly necessary, such as analytics, we will update this policy first and, where the law requires it, ask for your consent before setting them, with an equally easy way to refuse.
How to control or delete cookies and storage
You control everything described on this page. You can:
- Delete stored items. Clear the cookies and site data for blockforgeo.net in your browser settings. This removes
bf-lang,bf-themeand any workspace cookies. - Block cookies and site data. Most browsers let you block all cookies, block only third-party cookies, or block storage for specific sites.
- Use a private window. Private or incognito windows delete their cookies and site data when you close them.
Where to find these settings (menu names vary by browser version):
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Delete browsing data, or Third-party cookies.
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies and site data.
- Safari: on Mac, Settings → Privacy → Manage Website Data; on iPhone and iPad, Settings → Safari → Advanced → Website Data.
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data.
What happens when you delete or block them:
bf-lang: the site forgets your language. Each page opens in its own language, except that if your browser’s language is Japanese, English pages switch to the Japanese version automatically. You can choose again at any time with the language switch. Because the currency follows the page language, prices are then shown in the currency of the page you are viewing.bf-theme: the site returns to its default theme until you choose again.- All browser storage blocked: the website still works; it simply cannot remember these choices.
- Workspace cookies: deleting them signs you out, and blocking them means you cannot sign in to the workspace. Signing out or deleting cookies does not cancel your subscription and does not affect your credits. To cancel, use Account → Billing → Cancel subscription or email us from your account email (see our Cancellation Policy).
- Payment processor cookies: blocking them may stop you from completing payment.
Global Privacy Control and Do Not Sell or Share
We honour Global Privacy Control (GPC). When your browser sends a GPC signal, we treat it as a request to opt out of the sale and sharing of your personal information and of targeted advertising. We do not sell or share personal information, and none of the cookies or storage items on this page are used for advertising, so the signal does not change how the site works for you. The older Do Not Track browser setting likewise changes nothing, because we do not track you.
To learn more or to send an opt-out request anyway, see Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information and our Privacy Policy.
Changes to this policy
We update this policy whenever we change the cookies or storage we use, and the "Last updated" date at the top of the page shows when it last changed. We list any new cookie or storage item here before we start using it. If a change is material, such as adding a cookie that is not strictly necessary, we tell you by email or with a notice in the workspace before it takes effect, and ask for your consent where the law requires it.
