Cookie Policy
Last updated: February 21, 2026
This policy explains what cookies and similar technologies we use, why we use them, and how you can control them.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your preferences and understand how you interact with it. We also use localStorage, a similar browser storage mechanism, for certain preferences.
2. Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the website to function. They cannot be disabled.
| Cookie | Provider | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| __clerk_* | Clerk | Authentication session management |
| __client_uat | Clerk | User authentication token |
3. Analytics Cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website. They are only set if you consent to analytics cookies.
| Cookie | Provider | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics | Distinguishes unique users (expires after 2 years) |
| _ga_* | Google Analytics | Maintains session state (expires after 2 years) |
4. Marketing Cookies
We do not currently use marketing cookies. If we add them in the future (e.g., for ad campaigns), they will only be set with your explicit consent. This category is included so your preferences are ready when needed.
5. Local Storage
For transparency, we also use browser localStorage for the following items:
| Key | Purpose |
|---|---|
| fs_cookie_consent | Stores your cookie consent preferences |
| fs_lead_captured | Remembers if you submitted the newsletter popup |
| fs_popup_dismissed | Prevents showing the newsletter popup after dismissal |
6. Managing Your Preferences
Cookie Consent Banner
When you first visit our site, a consent banner lets you accept all cookies, reject non-essential ones, or choose individual categories. You can reopen this banner at any time using the "Cookie Settings" link in our footer.
Browser Settings
Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through their settings. Note that blocking necessary cookies may prevent parts of the site from working correctly.
Clearing Local Storage
You can clear localStorage through your browser's developer tools (Application > Local Storage) or by clearing all site data in your browser settings.
