Cookie Policy
Effective date: May 27, 2026 · Last updated: May 27, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies EmberTrack uses, and your choices. It supplements our Privacy Policy.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored by your browser when you visit a website. They allow sites to remember state between page loads and, in some cases, between separate visits.
2. How EmberTrack Uses Cookies
EmberTrack uses no tracking, analytics, or advertising cookies. We do not integrate Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, or any similar tool. Authentication uses a JSON Web Token (JWT) stored in your browser’s localStorage— this is not a cookie and is never shared with third parties.
The only cookies that may appear are essential technical cookies set by our infrastructure providers, listed below.
3. Cookie Inventory
| Name / Pattern | Provider | Purpose | Retention | Party |

| __vdpl_vercel_* | Vercel | CDN edge routing and deployment infrastructure. Required for the site to load from the nearest edge location. Contains no personal data. | Session | Third-party |
| __stripe_mid__stripe_sid | Stripe | Fraud prevention and payment-flow security. Set only when you initiate a subscription payment. Governed by Stripe’s Privacy Policy. | __stripe_mid: 1 year__stripe_sid: 30 min | Third-party |
EmberTrack sets no first-party cookies.

- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Cookies and site data
5. Changes to This Policy
We will update this page if we add new cookies and revise the “Last updated” date above. Continued use of EmberTrack after any change constitutes acceptance.
