Survicate does not use respondent cookies when storing information about respondents for the purpose of providing services. We do, however, use functional, performance, and targeting cookies on survicate.com. These may be visible in your browser as you test your surveys, but they're only there because you're our user and you've visited our website — your respondents are not served these cookies.

What does Survicate store in Local Storage?

All data we need to communicate with our database is stored within the Local Storage and Session Storage of an active browser, or also transmitted directly to our servers if you use backend targeting.

We use Local Storage to store:

  • Visitor (Respondent) UUID

  • Survey status (displayed and answered surveys)

  • Tags

  • Survey responses given by specific respondents queued to be sent to Survicate (deleted after the answer is sent)

  • visitor (respondent) attributes.
    You might pass them to Survicate using JavaScript, SDK, or as a part of the survey URL you share with the respondent.

    Please note that visitor (respondent) attributes are optional, and you decide what, if any, additional data is stored.

    Attributes passed to Survicate with SDK may not be stored in Local Storage.
