1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently and provide information to the site owners. Cookies may be set by the site you are visiting ("first-party cookies") or by other websites that serve content on the page ("third-party cookies").

2. How Retick Uses Cookies

Retick uses two categories of cookies:

  • Essential Cookies: Required for the core functionality of our application, including user authentication, session management, and security features. These cookies cannot be disabled as the site would not function properly without them.
    • __session — Authentication session token
    • cookie_consent — Your cookie consent preference
  • Analytics Cookies: Optional cookies that help us understand how visitors use Retick, including which pages are visited and how long users spend on the site. This data helps us improve the product experience. We use privacy-respecting analytics that do not track you across other websites.

3. Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You can manage your cookie preferences at any time:

  • Click the "Cookie Settings" link in the page footer to update your preferences.
  • Your consent preference is stored for 12 months. After 12 months, the consent banner will reappear.
  • You can also configure your browser settings to block or alert you about cookies, but this may impact the functionality of Retick.

Retick may use the following third-party services that may set cookies:

  • Firebase Authentication — For user sign-in via Google, GitHub, and Microsoft SSO.
  • Stripe — For payment processing (only on billing pages).
