1. What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on your browser. Cookies let sites remember things about you — such as whether you're logged in or what theme you prefer — across page loads and visits. Similar technologies (local storage, session storage) work the same way and are covered by this policy.
2. How we use cookies
We keep our cookie use minimal. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. The cookies and storage we do use fall into three categories:
Strictly necessary
These are required for the site and platform to work. They cannot be disabled.
- Session cookies — keep you logged in to the CRM while you're using it.
- CSRF tokens — protect against cross-site request forgery on form submissions.
- Local storage — the CRM stores your UI preferences (theme, accent colour) and a local cache of recent messages in your browser so the app is responsive offline.
Functional
Set with your consent. Used to remember preferences.
- qs-theme — whether you've selected light or dark mode in the CRM.
- qs-accent — your chosen accent colour.
Analytics
Set with your consent. Used to understand how the site is used so we can improve it.
- Aggregated page-view counters (no personal data, no persistent user ID).
3. Third-party cookies
Some pages embed content from third parties that may set their own cookies. The main ones are:
- Google Fonts — when loading the Inter typeface.
- Instagram — if you click our social link.
- Stripe — on the billing page, for fraud prevention.
These third parties operate under their own privacy policies.
4. Managing cookies
You can control cookies in two ways:
- In your browser — most browsers let you view, block, or delete cookies via Settings → Privacy. Blocking strictly-necessary cookies will break parts of the CRM.
- Via our consent banner — when we add one, you'll be able to accept or reject non-essential categories. Until a banner is live, we set only strictly necessary cookies by default.
5. Do Not Track
Our site respects the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. If your browser sends it, we disable analytics automatically without you needing to do anything else.
6. Changes
If we change how we use cookies, we'll update this page and the "Last updated" date above. Material changes will also be flagged via the consent banner.
