Cookie Policy

Last updated: January 5, 2026

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember your preferences and improve your experience.

2. Cookies We Use

2.1 Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be disabled:

  • Authentication: Keep you logged in to your account
  • Security: Protect against cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks
  • Preferences: Remember your theme choice (light/dark mode)

2.2 Analytics Cookies

We use Vercel Analytics, a privacy-friendly analytics service that:

  • Does NOT use cookies
  • Does NOT track users across websites
  • Does NOT collect personal information
  • Provides aggregate traffic insights only

3. Third-Party Cookies

3.1 Supabase (Authentication)

Our authentication provider may set cookies to manage your login sessions securely. These are essential for the service to function.

3.2 Stripe (Payments)

If you make a payment, Stripe may set cookies for fraud prevention and payment processing. See Stripe's cookie policy.

4. Cookie Duration

  • Session cookies: Deleted when you close your browser
  • Persistent cookies: Remain for a set period (typically 30 days for authentication)

5. Managing Cookies

5.1 Browser Settings

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:

  • View and delete cookies
  • Block third-party cookies
  • Block all cookies (note: this may break website functionality)
  • Clear cookies when closing the browser

5.2 Impact of Disabling Cookies

If you disable essential cookies, you will not be able to log in or use authenticated features of the Service. The website may not function properly.

6. Do Not Track

We respect "Do Not Track" browser signals. Our analytics (Vercel Analytics) does not track individual users, so DNT settings are already honored by default.

7. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in technology or legal requirements. We will notify you of significant changes via email or website notice.
