Cookie Policy
Last updated: February 1, 2026
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide reporting information to site owners.
Similar technologies — including local storage, session storage, and pixel tags — work in analogous ways and are subject to this policy.
Cookies We Use
We use the following categories of cookies:
- Strictly necessary: Essential for the Service to function. These cannot be disabled.
- Functional: Remember your choices and personalise the Service.
- Analytics: Help us understand how visitors interact with the Service. Data is aggregated or anonymised.
- Payment: Set by our payment processor (Polar) for checkout and subscription tracking.

Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are set by third parties. We use:
- PostHog for product analytics. PostHog processes data under its own privacy policy and our data processing agreement. Data is anonymised before storage.
- Polar for payment processing and subscription management.
- Google Analytics (optional, may be removed in future versions) for aggregate traffic analysis. We use IP anonymisation.
Controlling Cookies
You can control cookies in several ways:
- Cookie banner: On your first visit, you can accept or reject non-essential cookies via our cookie consent banner.
- Browser settings: Most browsers allow you to delete or block cookies. See your browser's help documentation for instructions.
- Opt-out links: Google Analytics opt-out: tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. PostHog opt-out: email us at privacy@person.run.
Disabling strictly necessary cookies may prevent you from logging in or using core features of the Service.
Do Not Track
Some browsers send a “Do Not Track” (DNT) signal. Our Service does not currently respond to DNT signals, as there is no industry-wide standard for how to respond. We honour opt-out mechanisms within our cookie consent system instead.
Policy Updates
We may update this Cookie Policy as our use of technologies changes. We will update the “Last updated” date and, where appropriate, notify you via email or the Service.
