Cookie Policy

This page explains the cookies and browser-side storage used by the current Stranger Talk application and what those technologies are for.

Last Updated: September 7, 2026

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small pieces of information stored by a website in your browser. Similar browser technologies, such as local storage, can also remember information on your device. They are not the same thing, but both can help a web application function.

2. What Stranger Talk currently uses

Session cookieThe application uses an HTTP-only, Secure, SameSite session cookie to maintain the authenticated application session.

Local storageThe frontend stores a device identifier, Stranger Talk Code and some onboarding or navigation state to keep the experience working.

No ad promiseThe current code audit does not identify a configured advertising provider. Future providers should be disclosed before use.

3. Why these technologies are used

to maintain a secure application session;
to recognise the current device and restore the intended flow;
to remember limited product state needed for navigation and onboarding;
to support core functionality.

4. Analytics and advertising

The current application configuration does not identify a dedicated third-party analytics or advertising provider. If analytics, advertising pixels or other non-essential tracking are added later, this policy and any required consent mechanism should be updated before those technologies are used.

5. Managing browser storage

You can clear cookies and local storage through your browser settings. Clearing them may sign you out, remove local onboarding state or affect features that depend on the current device identifier.

6. Privacy

Cookies are only one part of the data picture. Read the Privacy Policy for information about profiles, sessions, messages, community content, reports, activity and deletion.

7. Changes

We may update this Cookie Policy when browser technologies, vendors, consent requirements or product behaviour changes.

Configuration note: The final production policy should be reviewed against the actual hosting/CDN, analytics, advertising and consent-management configuration before commercial launch.
