Cookie Policy
Last updated:
Effective date: 4 August 2026 (replaces the version of 18 April 2025)
The short version
An anonymous visit to this site stores no analytics identifier on your device. Analytics run only in the browser's memory and end when you close the page. That is why there is no cookie banner here: there is nothing to consent to.
Cookies appear once you sign in, and every one of them exists to make the app work for you.
What we store, and when
Anonymous visitors
Nothing for analytics. If you switch the site's language, we remember the
choice in a NEXT_LOCALE cookie — that is a preference you expressed, not
tracking.
Signed-in users
- Session cookie — keeps you signed in. The app cannot work without it.
- Language preference (
NEXT_LOCALE) — remembers your chosen language. - Analytics identifier — links in-app events (creating a project, starting a run) to your account so we can see what works and what does not. It is set by PostHog, hosted in the European Union. Screen recording is off, and the content of your briefs is never sent to analytics.
What we do not use
- No advertising cookies.
- No third-party tracking cookies.
- No cross-site identifiers of any kind.
Managing cookies
You can remove or block cookies in your browser's settings (look for "Cookies and site data" under privacy). Blocking the session cookie will sign you out; blocking the rest costs you nothing but the language preference.
More detail on what the analytics identifier carries and how long data is kept is in the Privacy Policy.
Updates
Changes to this policy are posted on this page with an updated date at the top.
