Cookie Policy

1. The short version

TimeSlot only uses cookies and browser storage that the app needs to work: keeping you signed in and remembering your settings on your device. We do not use advertising cookies, we do not use cross-site tracking, and we do not sell your data. Because we only use essential storage, we do not show a cookie consent banner.

2. What are cookies and browser storage?

Cookies are small text files a website saves in your browser. Browser storage (such as localStorage) is a similar place where a site can save small pieces of information on your device. Both stay on your device and are sent to us only when the app needs them, for example to confirm you are signed in.

3. Cookies we set

Sign-in session (essential)

When you sign in, our authentication provider, Supabase, saves a session cookie so you stay signed in as you move between pages. Without it you would have to sign in on every page. These cookies are removed when you sign out or when the session expires. They cannot be switched off while using the app, because the app cannot work without them.

4. Browser storage we use

TimeSlot saves a few small preferences in your browser's localStorage. They never leave your device and are not used to track you.

• Your light or dark theme choice
• Your last chosen dashboard tab and calendar view
• Whether you have seen or dismissed a tip, hint, banner or setup checklist, so we do not show it again
• Your reminder and nudge preferences on this device
• Your onboarding progress, while you are setting up

You can clear this at any time from your browser settings. If you do, TimeSlot will go back to its defaults and may show tips again.

5. Analytics

We use Vercel Analytics and Speed Insights to count page views and measure how fast pages load. These tools do not use cookies and do not build a profile of you or follow you across other websites.

6. Third-party cookies

When you sign in with Google or connect Google Calendar or Classroom, you are sent to Google's own pages, and Google may set its own cookies there under the Google cookie policy. When you subscribe to Premium, payment happens on a checkout page hosted by Stripe, which may set cookies to process the payment and prevent fraud, as described in the Stripe cookie policy. We do not control those cookies, and TimeSlot itself does not set them.

7. Managing cookies

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. If you block the sign-in cookie, you will not be able to stay signed in to TimeSlot. For more on how browsers handle cookies, see allaboutcookies.org.

8. Changes to this policy

If we add anything beyond essential cookies and storage, we will update this page and the "Last updated" date, and ask for your consent first where the law requires it.
