Cookie Policy

Effective date: July 12, 2026

This policy explains what cookies and similar browser storage Trace Learn uses, why we use them, and the choices you have. We keep this deliberately simple: we do not use advertising cookies, and we do not sell data to anyone.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser. We also use similar browser storage (localStorage and sessionStorage) that works the same way but is not sent with every request. This policy covers both.

2. What we use, and why

We only use strictly necessary storage - things the service cannot work without:

  • Session storage: when you or your child log in, we store a session token in the browser so you stay signed in as you move around the app. It is removed when you log out.
  • Security cookies: we use Cloudflare to protect the site from bots and abuse (including Cloudflare Turnstile on sign-up). Cloudflare may set cookies needed for that protection to work.
  • Payment cookies: if you subscribe, payment is handled by Stripe. Stripe sets cookies during checkout for fraud prevention and to make payment work.

3. What we do not use

  • No advertising or ad-targeting cookies.
  • No third-party analytics cookies on children's accounts.
  • No social media tracking pixels.
  • No selling or sharing of browsing data.

If we ever introduce optional analytics to improve the product, we will update this policy first and ask for consent where the law requires it.

4. Your choices

Because everything we store is strictly necessary, there is no cookie banner to click through. You can clear cookies and site data at any time from your browser settings - the only effect is that you will be logged out. Blocking cookies entirely may stop login, sign-up protection, or checkout from working.
