Cookie Policy

This page explains the cookies Memoist sets in your browser. We've kept it short because there isn't much to say.

The one cookie we set

When you sign in to Memoist we set a single cookie called memoist. It's a signed session cookie that keeps you logged in across page loads. It's:

• HTTP-only — JavaScript can't read it
• Secure — only sent over HTTPS
• SameSite=Lax — not sent on most cross-site requests
• Strictly necessary — authentication doesn't work without it

Under UK PECR, strictly-necessary cookies don't require your consent. We mention this one here for transparency, not because we need permission.

Third-party cookies

We don't set any. When you sign in via Google, Google sets its own cookies on its own domains as part of its authentication flow. That's covered by Google's privacy policy, not ours.

Analytics and tracking

We don't use any. No Google Analytics, no Posthog, no advertising pixels, no behavioural tracking of any kind.

If this changes

If we ever add cookies that aren't strictly necessary — for example, basic privacy-respecting analytics — we'll update this page and add a consent banner asking you to opt in first.
