Cookie Policy

Last updated: June 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Bloggerly (“we”, “us”) uses cookies and similar technologies on bloggerly.ai. It describes what we set, why, and how you can control it. Where this policy refers to “you”, it means the visitor or registered user of the app.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We also use browser localStorage in a few cases, which behaves similarly but is not sent to the server on every request. Throughout this policy, “cookies” covers both.

The cookies we use

Essential cookies (always on)

These are required for the app to function and cannot be disabled in our consent tool. They support authentication, security, and your theme/brand selections.

• Auth session cookies — set by Supabase Auth so you stay signed in. Required for the service.
• theme — remembers your light/dark preference.
• bloggerly:selectedBrandId — remembers the brand workspace you last selected.
• cc_cookie — stores your cookie consent decision so we don't ask you again.

Analytics cookies (optional, opt-in)

We use PostHog for first-party product analytics. By default we run analytics in cookieless mode: events are captured with an anonymous, in-memory identifier that is not stored on your device and resets when you close the page. No analytics cookie is set unless you opt in.

If you accept analytics cookies, PostHog switches to persistent storage so we can remember you across sessions and link events to your account when you are signed in:

• ph_* — persists your analytics identifier (localStorage + cookie). 365 days.

If you later withdraw consent, these identifiers are cleared and PostHog returns to cookieless mode.

Marketing cookies (optional, opt-in)

We do not currently use any marketing or advertising cookies. This category is reserved for future use and will only ever activate if you opt in.

Cookieless tracking we always run

To understand how the app is used, we always collect anonymous, cookieless usage analytics via PostHog. No identifier is stored on your device. PostHog may derive approximate location from your IP address for aggregate, region-level analytics; the IP is not retained long-term or combined with your identity unless you accept analytics cookies and are signed in. Accepting analytics cookies lets us remember your visit across sessions.

Server-side processing

Some data is processed on our servers independently of cookies and consent, as necessary for security, authentication, and service operation under our legitimate interests (GDPR Art. 6(1)(f)):

• Authentication events — when you sign in, sign up, or sign out, we log the event type and your user ID for security auditing. We do not include your email address in these events.
• Error monitoring — Sentry receives error reports that may include your user ID and request metadata. This is necessary to keep the service reliable.

These activities are not governed by the cookie consent banner because they are not cookie-based tracking. They are disclosed here for transparency and detailed in our Privacy Policy.

Your rights

Under the GDPR you have the right to access, correct, erase, or restrict the processing of your personal data, and to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. You can change your cookie preferences at any time using the button above, Settings → General, or the cookie banner on your first visit.
