Cookie Policy & First-Party Telemetry Ledger.

Effective October 2026 • Citadel Search Labs LLC isolates first-party session telemetry and LLM bot-crawl verification with zero third-party behavioral ad brokers across citadelsearch.io.

FIG 01 // ZERO-BROKER SESSION & BOT TELEMETRY ISOLATION

CLAUSE 01 // STRICTLY NECESSARY COOKIES

Security, Form CSRF & Edge Load Balancing

Essential first-party cookies secure audit intake submissions and preserve responsive viewport state. They contain zero personally identifiable fields and cannot be disabled without breaking form security.

CLAUSE 02 // FIRST-PARTY ATTRIBUTION

90-Day Organic & Referral Source Ledger

We set a lightweight first-party cookie (__cs_src) to measure whether executive visitors discovered Citadel Search via ChatGPT citations, Perplexity footnotes, or organic search—never syncing IDs externally.

CLAUSE 03 // GEO WORKBENCH ISOLATION

Ephemeral Client-Side Share-of-Model Math

Inputs entered into CitadelGEOSimulator execute strictly inside local browser memory. Domain names, ACV assumptions, and prompt toggles are never written to cookies unless you submit an audit application.

CLAUSE 04 // BOT & CRAWLER USER-AGENT LOGS

OAI-SearchBot, PerplexityBot & ClaudeBot

At the CDN edge, we inspect non-human crawler user-agents and HTTP status codes to verify structured schema indexing. Server logs exclude visitor cross-site browsing histories.

CLAUSE 05 // ZERO AD-BROKER PIXELS

No Cross-Site Retargeting or IP Deanonymizers

Citadel Search Labs deploys zero third-party ad-exchange cookies, B2B reverse-IP trackers, or behavioral data-broker beacons on any marketing or documentation route.

CLAUSE 06 // GPC, GDPR & CCPA CONTROLS

Automated Global Privacy Control Compliance

Browsers broadcasting Sec-GPC: 1 or Do Not Track automatically bypass non-essential attribution storage. Contact privacy@citadelsearch.io for 48-hour Data Protection Officer inquiries.
