COOKIES · MINIMAL BY DESIGN
Three cookies.
Zero ads.
We don’t do advertising cookies. We don’t do cross-site tracking. We use the minimum the site needs to work, plus one anonymized analytics cookie so we can notice bugs. That’s it.
1 · What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your browser when you visit a website. They’re the original boring tech. Most of the bad reputation came from advertising networks that we don’t use.
2 · The cookies we use
3 · What we don’t use
- Advertising cookies — none
- Cross-site tracking cookies — none
- Third-party social network cookies — none
- Facebook Pixel, Google Ads, TikTok Pixel — none of them
4 · The banner you saw
On your first visit, a banner at the bottom asks you to choose:
- Accept all — strictly necessary cookies plus PostHog anonymized analytics
- Essential only — strictly necessary cookies only · PostHog analytics are not loaded
Your choice lives in a cookie called hearby_cookie_consent for 12 months. To change your mind, clear the cookie in your browser, refresh, and pick again.
5 · Disabling cookies entirely
You can tell your browser to refuse all cookies. The strictly necessary ones can’t be disabled without breaking the site — you wouldn’t be able to sign in, submit the waitlist form, or complete checkout. That’s a browser-level decision, not a Hearby decision.
6 · Do Not Track & Global Privacy Control
We don’t respond to Do Not Track browser signals because the standard never materialised. We do respect Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals in California — if your browser sends GPC, we automatically apply “Essential only” mode before you see the banner.
7 · The Hearby iOS app
The app doesn’t use web cookies. Mobile analytics and tracking are governed by Apple’s App Tracking Transparency framework and the Hearby Privacy Policy.
8 · Changes
If we change what we use, we’ll re-prompt you via the banner on your next visit. We won’t silently add a tracker.
