Cookie Policy
The short version
Followly doesn’t run analytics, advertising, or any third-party tracker. There’s nothing here to opt in or out of beyond what the product needs to function: one cookie that keeps you signed in, and two small local-storage entries for your display preferences. That’s the whole list.
What we actually use
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| followly_session | Cookie (httpOnly) | Keeps you signed in. Strictly necessary: without it, you’d have to log in on every page. | 30 days, or until you sign out |
| followly-theme | Local storage | Remembers whether you’d switched to dark mode. | Until you clear browser storage |
| followly-tour-done | Local storage | Remembers you’ve already seen the guided product tour, so it doesn’t restart every visit. | Until you clear browser storage |
None of these are used for advertising, cross-site tracking, or building a profile of you. The session cookie and both local-storage entries are “strictly necessary” for the product to work the way you’d expect, which is why we don’t run a consent gate before setting them. There’s no optional/non-essential category to ask permission for.
Stripe, during checkout
If you subscribe to a paid plan, you’re redirected to Stripe’s own hosted checkout page to enter payment details. That page is on Stripe’s domain and sets its own cookies under Stripe’s own privacy and cookie practices, outside our control. We never see or handle your card details ourselves.
Controlling cookies
You can clear cookies and local storage for this site at any time through your browser’s settings. Doing so will sign you out and reset your theme/tour preferences, but won’t affect your account or data.
If this changes
If we ever add real analytics or marketing tooling, this page and the cookie notice on the site will be updated to reflect it, and we’ll ask for consent before anything non-essential runs.
