1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website saves in your browser and reads on later visits. Browser storage (localStorage and sessionStorage), which the site’s scripts use, works in a similar way.
2. Cookies we use
| Name | Purpose | When it is set | Lifetime | Type |
|---|---|---|---|---|
footler_session | Keeps you logged in to your account. It holds a random session identifier; the server stores only its hash. | After you set your password or log in | 30 days or until you log out | First-party, strictly necessary; HttpOnly, SameSite=Lax, Secure |
lang | Remembers the language you picked in the language switcher, so the home page opens in that language. | When you pick a language in the switcher | 1 year | First-party, strictly necessary |
CookieConsent | Remembers your choice in the consent banner (which kinds of cookies you allow) and a random identifier of that consent, so the banner does not come back on every visit. The banner’s script (Cookiebot) sets it. | When you choose an option in the consent banner | 12 months | First-party, strictly necessary (remembering the consent) |
footler_visitor | Recognises your browser on later visits, so visit statistics and tests of page versions count you as one person rather than a new one every day. It holds an identifier without any of your data; only our server reads it. | After you consent to statistics cookies | 13 months; if you withdraw your consent, we delete it on your next visit | First-party, statistics – only with consent; HttpOnly, SameSite=Lax, Secure |
ph_phc_…_posthog (PostHog; the name contains our public project key) | Recognises your browser on later visits and holds PostHog’s session data, so product analytics (Privacy Policy, section 3) count you as one person. It holds a random identifier without any of your data. | After you consent to statistics cookies; without consent PostHog uses only the page’s memory and sets nothing | Up to 1 year; if you withdraw your consent, the page clears it | First-party (through our own server), statistics – only with consent |
3. Browser storage
| Name | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|
footler-panel (localStorage) | The private link to the company dashboard on this device, so you do not have to paste it again. | Until you clear the site’s data in the browser or the link stops working |
footler-team-view (localStorage) | Remembers whether you chose cards or the table in the dashboard’s “Team” tab. | Until you clear the site’s data in the browser |
ph_phc_…_posthog (localStorage, PostHog) | The same identifier and session data as the cookie of that name above. | Only after you consent to statistics cookies; until you withdraw it or clear the site’s data |
4. Consent and changing it
Strictly necessary cookies (logging in, the chosen language, remembering your choice in the banner) and browser storage entries serve the service you ask for, so under the Polish Electronic Communications Law (Prawo komunikacji elektronicznej) they do not require consent. We set the statistics cookies footler_visitor and ph_phc_…_posthog and the PostHog localStorage entry – and record sessions – only after you consent to statistics cookies in the consent banner, and our server checks on every visit that this consent still holds. Without consent, visit statistics are counted without cookies and without storing anything in your browser (PostHog then keeps its identifiers only in the page’s memory) (Privacy Policy, section 3). We do not use advertising cookies.
You give, change and withdraw your consent in the consent banner – the “Cookie settings” link in the page footer opens it – or in the declaration below. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of what happened before.
The consent banner is provided by Cookiebot of Usercentrics A/S (Havnegade 39, 1058 Copenhagen, Denmark), which processes data on our behalf for it (Privacy Policy, section 7). We load the banner’s script from Cookiebot’s European servers (consent.cookiebot.eu) only on the home page and the legal documents’ pages – not in the dashboard, on the purchase page or on pages with private links.
5. Resources of other companies
Apart from the consent banner, the service’s pages load nothing from other companies: fonts and scripts come from our own server, so nobody but us and Cookiebot sets cookies or receives your IP address from your browser when you view a page. Product analytics (PostHog, Privacy Policy, section 3) goes through our own server, which passes your IP address on to PostHog’s European servers to derive an approximate location. The other exception is the “Install in Gmail” step: when it is available, the page loads Google’s sign-in script (accounts.google.com), so Google receives your IP address and may set its own cookies under its privacy policy. See the Privacy Policy.
6. How to block or delete cookies
You can delete or block cookies and site data in your browser settings:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Third-party cookies / See all site data and permissions;
- Safari: Settings → Privacy → Manage Website Data;
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data;
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions.
Without the footler_session cookie you cannot log in to your account. Without the lang cookie the home page opens in the language set in your browser. Without the CookieConsent cookie the consent banner comes back, and without footler_visitor statistics count you only within one day.
7. Changes
If we start using new cookies, we will update this policy first. We will set cookies that are not strictly necessary only after you consent.
