Last updated: January 23, 2026

1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how Stanza ("we," "our," or "us") uses cookies and similar technologies on our website and services. We are committed to transparency and want you to understand what cookies we use and why.

Good news: We use a minimal approach to cookies. We only use essential cookies required for the service to function, and we do not use tracking or advertising cookies.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to website owners.

3. Cookies We Use

We only use strictly necessary cookies that are essential for the operation of our Service. These cookies do not require your consent under GDPR as they are necessary for the website to function.

4. Cookies We Do NOT Use

We respect your privacy and do not use:

  • Tracking cookies: We do not track your activity across websites
  • Advertising cookies: We do not serve personalized ads or share data with advertisers
  • Analytics cookies: Our analytics provider (PostHog) is configured to use localStorage instead of cookies
  • Social media cookies: We do not embed social media trackers

5. Analytics

We use PostHog to understand how visitors use our website and to improve our Service. PostHog is configured in a privacy-friendly way:

  • Does not use cookies (uses localStorage instead)
  • Does not track users across websites
  • Only creates user profiles for logged-in users
  • Data is used solely to improve our Service

PostHog collects anonymous usage data such as page views, feature usage, and general interactions with our Service. For anonymous visitors, this data cannot be used to identify individual users.

Local Storage:PostHog stores a randomly generated identifier in your browser's localStorage to distinguish unique visitors. This is not a cookie and does not require consent under GDPR. You can clear this at any time through your browser settings.

6. Managing Cookies

Since we only use essential cookies, there is no cookie consent banner required. However, you can control cookies through your browser settings:

  • Chrome: Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data
  • Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
  • Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
  • Edge: Settings → Privacy, search, and services → Cookies and site permissions

Note: If you block or delete our essential cookies, you may not be able to log in or use certain features of our Service.

7. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any significant changes by posting a notice on our Service. Your continued use of the Service after such changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated Cookie Policy.
