1. What cookies are
Cookies are small files a website stores in your browser. We also use the browser's local storage (localStorage and sessionStorage) to remember preferences. This policy explains what we store and complements the Privacy Policy.

We do not use advertising or social media cookies. The site's fonts are served from our own domain. Analytics cookies come from PostHog, with the data in the European Union, and pass through our own domain (/ingest). On public pages, without your permission, analytics runs without cookies and without storing anything in your browser.
Payment happens on Stripe's page, which uses its own cookies for security and fraud prevention, under Stripe's privacy policy.
3. How to manage them
On public pages, the cookie notice asks whether you accept analytics cookies, and the "Cookie preferences" link in the footer opens it again. With an account, analytics is turned off in Settings → "Help improve Verbo Vivo". You can also delete or block cookies in your browser settings. Essential cookies are needed to sign in: without them, the app cannot be used.
