Cookie Notice
What we use
HearStage uses only first-party cookies and similar technologies (local storage, service worker cache) that are needed for the service you ask for, such as logging in or following an invite link. Under the EU and UK ePrivacy rules these do not need consent, so we do not show a cookie banner.
| Name or type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Supabase auth cookies (sb-…) | Keep you logged in securely | Until you log out, refreshed while you use the app |
| hvs_region | Test-mode price-region override, only if set | 1 day |
| hvs_ref | Remembers the invite link you opened so the invite is credited when you sign up. Not used for tracking | 30 days |
| Local storage and app cache | Remember settings such as audio preferences, drafts and offline app files | Until you clear them |
| Push subscription | Deliver notifications you turned on | Until you turn them off |
What we do not use
No advertising cookies, no cross-site tracking, no third-party analytics, no social-media pixels. If we ever add optional cookies, we will ask for your consent first and let you change your mind at any time.
Third parties
When you pay, Stripe may set its own cookies on its checkout pages for fraud prevention, under Stripe's cookie policy.
