Cookie Policy
Last updated: 2026-05-28
1. What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device when you visit. They allow the site to remember your preferences and to keep you signed in across pages. This Cookie Policy explains the cookies that California Baby Surrogacy uses on californiababysurrogacy.org and the related client portal.
2. Categories of Cookies We Use
We currently use only cookies that are strictly necessary for the site to operate. We do not use advertising, retargeting, or cross-site tracking cookies.
3. The Specific Cookies We Set
Strictly necessary cookies in use today include: NEXT_LOCALE - remembers your preferred language across visits; cb_session - short-lived authentication token for visitors signed in to the client portal; cb_portal_session - separate session identifier for the secure portal area; csrf_token - protects forms against cross-site request forgery; cookie_consent - records your choice on the cookie consent banner so we do not re-prompt you on every page. Lifetimes range from the duration of your browser session to a maximum of twelve (12) months.
4. Analytics and Performance
If we add basic, privacy-respecting analytics in the future, we will update this page and the cookie consent banner first. Any analytics cookie will be set only after you accept it through the banner.
5. Cookie Consent Banner
When you first visit californiababysurrogacy.org, a banner explains that we use strictly necessary cookies and asks for your acknowledgment. You can revisit the banner at any time using the "Manage cookies" link in the website footer. Because the cookies we set today are strictly necessary, the site will not function correctly if you block them.
6. How to Disable or Delete Cookies
Most browsers let you view, manage, and delete cookies through their settings menu. Search your browser's help center for "cookies" to find specific instructions for Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, and other browsers. You can also choose to block cookies entirely; if you do, parts of the client portal will not work.
7. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy as the cookies we use change. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
