Cookie Policy

Effective Date: July 15, 2026

This Cookie Policy describes how Squarespace uses cookies and similar technologies to provide, customize, evaluate, improve, promote and protect our Services. Note that any capitalized terms not defined in this Cookie Policy have the meanings set forth in our Privacy Policy. If you have any comments or questions about this Cookie Policy, feel free to contact us at privacy@squarespace.com.

Cookies. Cookies are text or other files stored on or retrieved from your browser or device when you visit a website. They serve a variety of functions, like enabling us to remember certain information you provide to us as you navigate between pages on the Services. When you visit our Services, both first party and third party cookies may be placed on your browser or device. Our Services may require you to affirmatively consent to certain cookies where that’s required or enable you to opt-out of certain cookies where that’s required. We use cookies on our Services for the following purposes:

• Authentication, Security and Other Required Purposes. Cookies help us verify your account and device and determine when you’re logged in. We also use cookies to help secure our Services, remember your cookie consent preferences and provide you with the Services.

• Functional Purposes:

Customization. Cookies help us provide you with your desired experience by remembering the choices you’ve made on our Services, such as your language preferences.

• Performance And Analytics. Cookies help us analyze how the Services are being accessed and used, and enable us to track performance of the Services. For example, we use cookies to determine if you viewed a page or section of a page.

• Third Party Functionality. Cookies allow us to provide you additional functionality from or via third parties. Third party functionality integrated with our Services may use cookies as part of that integration, including for example to help you sign into their services and connect your use of their Services to your use of our Services. Any such third party cookie usage is governed by the policy of the third party placing the cookie.

• Advertising Purposes. We partner with third party publishers, advertising networks and other vendors to manage our ads on other sites. These third party partners may set cookies on your browser or device to gather information about your activities on the Services and other sites you visit, in order to show you or exclude you from being shown Squarespace ads. For example, if you visit Squarespace and also use a social media platform, you may see a Squarespace ad on that social media platform. If you disable these cookies, you may still see our ads on third party websites or apps, but they may be less relevant to you.

Opting Out. You can set your browser to not accept cookies, but this may limit your ability to use the Services.

• We do not currently recognize or respond to browser-initiated Do Not Track signals.

• Do Not Track is a different privacy mechanism than the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal which is a browser-based control that indicates whether you would like to opt out of processing of your personal information for online behavioral advertising purposes. If you are a resident of a US state and you visit our Services using a GPC-enabled browser, we recognize GPC and will opt your browser out of our third party partners’ advertising cookies. Please note that this opt-out may only apply to the browser you use to send the GPC signal.
