Cookie Notice
Last updated: 5 November 2026
Cookies are small files a website stores in your browser. We use cookies and similar storage that are needed to run AnswrForge, and analytics and marketing cookies only if you agree. The AnswrForge app itself uses only its login cookie.
How consent works
When you first visit answrforge.com you can choose Reject all, Accept all or Customise. Google Tag Manager loads only after you consent, using Google Consent Mode v2 with everything denied by default. Microsoft Clarity runs only with Analytics consent. Google Ads and the LinkedIn Insight Tag run only with Marketing consent.

Your choices
Strictly necessary cookies do not need your consent. Analytics and marketing cookies are set only after you click Accept all or switch on that category under Customise. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time with the Cookie settings link in the footer; we ask again after 12 months.
These cookies come from Google Ireland Ltd., Microsoft Ireland Operations Ltd. and LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company. See our Privacy Policy for how we use the data. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser, but you will then not be able to log in to the app.
Fonts
Our website loads fonts from Google Fonts, which means your browser connects to Google's servers and shares your IP address with Google.
Changes
If we add other cookies later, we will ask for your consent first and list them here.
