1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies — such as local storage and pixels — work in comparable ways. They help websites function, remember your preferences, keep you securely signed in, and understand how the site is used.

2. How We Use Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies to:

• Keep you signed in and secure your session
• Remember your preferences and settings
• Understand how the platform and website are used so we can improve them

Non-essential cookies (such as analytics) are only set after you give consent through our cookie banner. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time — see Section 5.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies

Necessary for the platform to work. They enable core functions like signing in, securing your session, and remembering your cookie choices. The platform cannot function properly without them, so they do not require consent. Examples:

• Authentication and session cookies that keep you signed in
• Security cookies, including bot protection (Cloudflare Turnstile)
• A cookie that remembers your cookie consent preferences

Functionality Cookies

Enable enhanced functionality and personalization, such as remembering your display choices. Examples:

• Theme preference (light/dark mode)
• Other interface and display preferences

Analytics Cookies

Help us understand how visitors and users interact with the website and platform so we can improve them. We use PostHog (EU-hosted) for product analytics. These cookies are only set after you consent. Examples:

• Cookies that measure page views, navigation patterns, and feature usage

Marketing Cookies

We currently do not use marketing or advertising cookies. If this changes, we will update this policy and request consent where required.

4. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies are set by third-party services we use to operate the platform. These providers process data under their own privacy policies:

• Stripe — payment processing and fraud prevention
• PostHog (EU-hosted) — product analytics
• Cloudflare — bot protection and content delivery
• Google — authentication (Google sign-in)

Please refer to each provider's privacy policy for details of their cookies.

5. Managing Your Preferences

Consent Banner

When you first visit, our cookie banner lets you accept or decline non-essential cookies. If you decline, no analytics cookies are set. You can change your preference at any time by reopening the banner or clearing your browser's local storage and revisiting the site.

Browser Settings

Most browsers let you view, delete, and block cookies through their settings:

• Chrome: Settings > Privacy and security > Cookies and other site data
• Firefox: Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
• Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Cookies and website data
• Edge: Settings > Privacy, search, and services > Cookies and site permissions

Blocking or deleting essential cookies may affect core functionality, including staying signed in.

6. Cookie Retention

Cookies have different lifespans:

• Session cookies: deleted when you close your browser
• Persistent cookies: remain for a set period or until you delete them
• Authentication cookies: expire after a defined period of inactivity

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in the technologies we use or for legal or operational reasons. We will post the updated version on this page with a revised "Last updated" date.
