Cookie Policy
Effective Date: January 1, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how North Star Marketing-Communications, Inc., doing business as Tassel® ("Tassel," "we," "our," or "us"), uses cookies and similar technologies on our website and within the PAN™ (Parent Ambassador Network) web application (together, the "Service"). It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
1. What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. They are widely used to make sites work, or work more efficiently, and to provide information to site owners. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, pixels, and software development kits.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
Required for the Service to function, including authentication, session management, security, and load balancing. Without these cookies, features such as signing in and staying signed in would not work.
Performance Cookies
Help us understand how the Service performs, including page load times, error rates, and infrastructure health, so we can improve reliability.
Analytics Cookies
Help us understand how users interact with the Service in aggregate — which pages are visited, which features are used, and how users move through workflows. We use this information to improve the product.
Functional Cookies
Remember your preferences and choices, such as language, saved filters, sidebar state, and last-visited views, so the Service feels consistent across sessions.
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are set by third-party service providers who help us operate, secure, and analyze the Service, including our authentication, hosting, analytics, and error monitoring providers. Those providers process cookie data on our behalf under contracts that restrict how the data can be used.
3. Managing Cookie Preferences
Browser Controls
Most browsers let you view, delete, and block cookies through their settings. You can also set your browser to notify you when a cookie is being placed. Blocking essential cookies will prevent parts of the Service from functioning, including signing in.

4. Future Technologies
As web standards evolve, we may adopt similar technologies (such as pixels, tags, or server-side event tracking) to serve the same purposes described above. This Policy applies to those technologies as well.
