What Sort of Cookies Does Qualaroo Use?

 

Qualaroo uses first-party cookies, so the cookies stored are only on the domain where you have installed the code. All the Qualaroo cookies store anonymous information about the visitor, such as a random UID (to count them as unique), and keep track of visits and survey views.

 

You can set a custom expiration date by adding this line at the end of your snippet:

 

_kiq.push(['setCookieExpireDays', 365]);

 

NOTE: The cookie expiry date must be set in days. For example, 365 refers to a cookie valid for one year.

 

Using cookies in your surveys is helpful as

 

  • Cookies can be set for a specific duration

  • They are easy to deploy

  • They are stored on the client-side end and thus load fast

 

You can view the cookies used by Qualaroo by inspecting the element of your survey page on your browser.
