🍪 Honestly? We only use cookies to keep you logged in and remember your preferences. No ad networks, no cross-site tracking, no creepy retargeting. That's it.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser. They let websites remember information about your visit — like whether you're logged in — without you having to re-enter it every time.

We do not use analytics cookies, advertising cookies, or any third-party tracking cookies.
3. Third-Party Cookies
The only third-party cookie you may encounter is from Google OAuth — if you use "Sign in with Google", Google may set cookies on google.com as part of their authentication flow. These are governed by Google's Privacy Policy and are not under our control.
Our payment provider (Stripe) may also set cookies on their hosted payment pages. Again, this is governed by Stripe's Privacy Policy.
4. Managing Cookies
You can control cookies via your browser settings. Note that blocking essential cookies (session cookies) will break the login functionality — you'll need to re-authenticate every page visit, which is a terrible experience and we'd prefer you didn't do that.
Most browsers let you: view existing cookies, delete specific cookies, block cookies from specific sites, or block all cookies (not recommended for logged-in apps).
5. Changes to This Policy
If we ever add new cookies — for example, if we introduce analytics to understand how people use the platform — we'll update this page and notify you in-app before they're set.
