This Cookie Policy explains how Ratioed uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you use our website and application. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website. They allow the website to remember your actions and preferences over time. Similar technologies include localStorage, sessionStorage, and pixel tags — we refer to all of these collectively as "cookies" in this policy.
2. Cookies we use
Strictly necessary
These cookies are required for the Service to function. They cannot be disabled.
| Name | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|
| session | Keeps you logged in across page loads | HTTP cookie | 30 days |
| csrf_token | Prevents cross-site request forgery attacks | HTTP cookie | Session |
| auth_state | Temporary state for OAuth sign-in flow | HTTP cookie | 15 minutes |
Analytics
These cookies help us understand how users interact with the Service so we can improve it.
| Name | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|
| ph_* | PostHog product analytics — tracks events and sessions | localStorage / cookie | 1 year |
| ph_distinct_id | PostHog anonymous user identifier | localStorage | 1 year |
Preference
These cookies remember your settings and choices.
| Name | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|
| feed_prefs | Stores your feed personalisation preferences | localStorage | Persistent |
3. Third-party cookies
When you sign in using Google, Apple, or X, those providers may set their own cookies as part of the OAuth authentication flow. We do not control these cookies. Please refer to the relevant provider's cookie/privacy policy for details.
4. Managing cookies
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:
- View cookies set on your device
- Block all or certain cookies
- Delete cookies when you close your browser
Note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent the Service from working correctly — in particular, you will not be able to stay logged in.
To opt out of PostHog analytics, you can use a browser extension such as uBlock Origin, or contact us at legal@ratioed.co and we will add you to our opt-out list.
5. Do Not Track
Some browsers send a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. We currently do not respond differently to DNT signals, as there is no consistent industry standard for doing so. We will update this policy if that changes.
6. Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy as our use of cookies changes. The "Effective" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent version.
