1. Overview
This policy explains how Persona uses cookies, local storage, and similar browser-side technologies across the website, sign-in flows, and related services.
Persona asks for consent before using non-essential cookie categories. Necessary cookies remain active because they are required for security, authentication, and core service delivery.
2. What we use
Persona currently separates browser technologies into the following categories:
Necessary cookies for sign-in, session continuity, CSRF protection, legal acceptance status, and baseline security controls.
Preference cookies for language, theme, interface settings, reduced-motion choices, and similar convenience features.
Analytics cookies, if enabled in the future, for aggregated product measurement, reliability, and abuse diagnostics.
Marketing cookies, if enabled in the future, for campaign attribution, promotional measurement, or similar marketing use cases.
3. Why we use them
To keep you signed in securely.
To remember language, theme, and product preferences when you explicitly allow that category.
To protect accounts, prevent fraud, and diagnose failures using strictly necessary controls.
To support critical flows such as legal acceptance, donations, and password recovery.
To improve performance and reliability only where the relevant consent category has been enabled.
4. Third-party services
Payment, infrastructure, anti-abuse, and hosting providers may use their own technical identifiers when strictly necessary to deliver the requested service or complete a transaction.
If Persona later adds analytics or marketing providers, those categories will remain off unless you actively enable them through the consent interface.
5. Managing cookies
You can use Persona's cookie settings panel or your browser controls to manage stored cookies. Refusing optional cookies is designed to be as easy as accepting them.
Blocking or clearing necessary cookies may prevent sign-in, messaging continuity, legal confirmation, or other core features from working correctly. Clearing preference cookies may reset language or theme.
6. Retention
Some cookies last only for the current session. Others may remain for a limited period needed for security, consent records, preferences, or technical continuity. Persona aims to keep retention proportionate to the purpose of each category.
7. Changes
Persona may update this policy or the consent categories from time to time. When a material change is made, Persona may ask you to review your cookie choices again.
