Three cookie buckets. You control two.

No dark patterns, no 'legitimate interest' loopholes. Turn things off and we genuinely turn them off.

Strictly necessary & functional

Required

Authentication, security, and the core link service. These can't be turned off and don't require consent. This also includes the first-party click-measurement cookie set on a short-link redirect — it carries an opaque token with no personal data, and because a redirect happens instantly there's no place to show a consent prompt, so it's treated as functional.

Product analytics

Optional and off by default. When you accept this category we load Google Analytics to understand which marketing and dashboard pages get used. Decline and these are never set.

Marketing

Optional and off by default. We do not currently set any marketing or ad-retargeting cookies, and never on the redirect flow. If that ever changes they'll be listed here and will require your consent first.

Your choice itself is saved in your browser's local storage (ol_consent), not a cookie. If you're signed in, we also keep a timestamped record of each choice on your account so we can show what you consented to and when.
