Cookie Policy

• A cookie is a small file a website stores in your browser. It is how a site remembers you between page loads — that you are signed in, for instance.
• Cookies are not programs, and they cannot read anything else on your computer.

Exactly one, and it is essential.

• The session cookie. Once you sign in, this signed cookie proves you are you on the next request — it is what lets you publish. It contains no personal data, only an opaque session token; the matching session lives server-side and expires on its own.
• Without it there is no way to stay signed in, so it is not optional.
• It is set only after you choose to sign in — an anonymous visitor receives no cookie from us at all.

• Waku stores your in-progress profile in your browser’s local storage, not in a cookie — which is why the editor works offline and survives a refresh.
• Nothing leaves your browser until you hit publish.
• Clearing your browser’s stored data removes the draft permanently — and since we never received it, we cannot restore it.

• Analytics. There is no tracking cookie counting your visits.
• Advertising. No ad networks run here, so no ad cookie is ever set.
• Cross-site tracking. Nothing follows you to other websites.
• Fingerprinting for identification. The rating fingerprint is a one-way hash used only to keep ratings one-per-person — see the Privacy Policy.

• Signing in happens on GitHub’s or Google’s own pages. Those providers may set their own cookies on their domains as part of that flow — we do not control them, and they are governed by their own policies.
• Delivered images come from Cloudinary, which may use its own cookies to serve them efficiently.

• Every browser lets you view, block and delete cookies, usually under Settings → Privacy.
• Blocking the session cookie only means signing in again.
• The editor, the themes, card export and the QR generator all work with cookies disabled.

• If a new feature needs a cookie, this page will say so plainly and the date at the top will move.
• “We updated our cookie policy” will never be a surprise buried in the footer.

• Anything unclear — sainrahul374@gmail.com.
