Cookie Policy
Last updated: 26 June 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Escoutly uses cookies and similar technologies, which ones we set, and how you can control them. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, to remember your preferences, and to keep you signed in. “Similar technologies” include local storage and similar device storage used for the same purposes.
2. Our Approach
We take a privacy-first approach and use only essential and preference cookies that are necessary to operate the Platform and remember your choices. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.
3. Cookies We Use
The cookies and similar storage we set include:
- Authentication (strictly necessary): session cookies that keep you signed in to your dashboard, and a separate admin session cookie for staff. Without these, secure areas cannot function.
- NEXT_LOCALE (preference): remembers your chosen language.
- DISPLAY_CURRENCY (preference): remembers the currency you choose to view prices in.
- Theme (preference): remembers your light/dark display choice.
- Cookie consent (strictly necessary): records that you have seen and acknowledged this notice.
- Security/CSRF tokens (strictly necessary): protect forms and sign-in against cross-site request forgery.
4. Third-Party Cookies
Some features rely on third parties that may set their own cookies when you use them, for example payment processing (Stripe, Bizum), authentication (Google sign-in), and the AI assistant. These are governed by the respective providers’ cookie and privacy policies.
5. Managing Cookies
Because we use only essential and preference cookies, disabling them may break sign-in and reset your preferences. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings, and most browsers let you block or clear cookies and storage. Refer to your browser’s help pages for instructions.
6. Changes & Contact
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Questions can be sent to privacy@escoutly.com.
