Cookie Policy

Our cookie policy and how we use them

Effective: August 28, 2026

This policy explains how the acrylic website uses cookies and browser storage. In this document, “cookies” also includes similar browser-storage technologies such as localStorage.

Our approach

  • We use storage only for sign-in, security, and interface settings you choose.
  • We measure marketing-page usage with PostHog in cookieless mode. Analytics does not store an identifier in cookies, localStorage, or sessionStorage.
  • We send only page paths and explicitly defined conversion events.
  • Analytics events exclude document content, prompts, file names, email addresses, full URL queries, and form input.
  • We do not use advertising, retargeting, session recording, heatmaps, or automatic click capture.

Essential storage

NameTypePurposeRetention
sb-*-auth-tokenCookieMaintain sign-in sessions and authentication securityBased on session settings; removed on sign-out

Functional storage

NameTypePurposeRetention
themeCookieRemember the display theme you select1 year
sidebar_stateCookieRemember the sidebar state in signed-in areas7 days
auth_last_methodlocalStorageIndicate the last sign-in method used30 days

auth_last_method stores only the sign-in method and OAuth provider, not an email address. Language is managed in the current URL path.

Cookieless audience analytics

acrylic uses PostHog to understand marketing-page visits and key conversions. Instead of leaving a persistent identifier in the browser, PostHog uses the IP address, browser information, hostname, and a value that changes daily to create a one-way hash on its server. Person profiles and account identification are disabled.

Your controls

acrylic respects the browser's Do Not Track signal. You can also block analytics scripts or network requests with browser or content-blocking tools. Blocking essential storage may prevent sign-in from working, while blocking functional storage may stop your selected settings from being remembered.
