Cookie Policy

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies, such as your browser’s local storage, let a site remember information between visits. We use both to keep you signed in, remember your preferences, secure the Platform, and understand how it is used.

Cookies We Use

Strictly necessary

Required to run the Platform — sign you in, keep you signed in, and protect against abuse. The Platform will not work correctly without these.

Examples: accessToken, refreshToken (httpOnly session cookies)

Preferences

Remember choices you make, such as dismissing the cookie banner. We store your cookie-banner choice in your browser's local storage rather than a cookie.

Examples: gh_cookie_consent (browser local storage)

Analytics / performance

Help us understand how the Platform is used so we can improve it. These are aggregated and do not identify you personally.

Examples: Usage and error monitoring

Third-party

Set by services we use to provide functionality, such as Google for sign-in and, when payments go live, Stripe for secure checkout.

Examples: Google authentication, Stripe (when live)

Managing Your Preferences

When you first visit the Platform, we show a cookie banner so you can acknowledge our use of cookies. Strictly necessary cookies are always active because the Platform cannot function without them. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time — most browsers let you block or remove cookies and clear local storage. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent you from signing in or using parts of the Platform.

Third-Party Services

Some cookies and technologies are set by third parties that help us operate the Platform, including Google (sign-in) and, when payments go live, Stripe (checkout). We also use Resend to deliver email and Vercel for hosting and file storage. These providers process data under their own privacy and cookie practices; we encourage you to review them.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy as our use of cookies evolves. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date above.
