Cookie Policy

Last updated: 8th July, 2026

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our website. They help us provide you with a better experience by remembering your preferences and enabling certain functionality. We also use similar technologies like local storage and session storage.

2. Cookie Categories

We group cookies and similar technologies into the same four categories shown in our cookie banner:

Authentication (strictly necessary — always on)

Required for Talklet to function. These keep you securely signed in and protect payment and checkout against fraud. Without them you cannot log in or use core features, so they are always active and cannot be disabled. They are set by Supabase (authentication) and Stripe (payment security). We do not treat these as optional and do not ask for consent to set them, as the service cannot work without them.

Analytics

These help us understand how visitors use Talklet so we can improve the Service. We use Google Analytics 4, loaded through Google Tag Manager. Analytics cookies are set only if you accept them in the cookie banner. We do not use any other analytics provider.

Preferences

These remember choices you make, such as your language, timezone, and display settings, so the interface behaves the way you expect. On Talklet these preferences are stored using your browser's local storage rather than third-party cookies, and are set only if you accept non-essential storage in the cookie banner.

Functionality

These support optional features of the Service and remember non-essential state (for example, that you have already seen a particular prompt). On Talklet this is handled through your browser's local storage rather than third-party cookies, and is set only if you accept non-essential storage in the cookie banner.

3. Cookies We Use

The table below lists the cookies actually set when you use Talklet. Analytics cookies are only set after you accept them.

_ga_<container>Google Analytics 4 (via Google Tag Manager)AnalyticsPersists analytics session state. Set only if you accept analytics.2 years

Preferences and functionality are stored using your browser's local storage rather than cookies, and your cookie-banner choice itself is remembered in local storage. We do not use Google Analytics, Stripe, or any other third-party provider to set advertising cookies.

4. Your Consent and How to Control Cookies

When you first visit talklet.com, we ask for your consent through a cookie banner before any non-essential cookies are set. Strictly necessary cookies (e.g. authentication and security) are always active and cannot be disabled, as the service cannot function without them. Analytics, preferences and functionality cookies are set only if you accept them. You can accept all or decline non-essential cookies, and you can change or withdraw your choice at any time by clearing Talklet's cookies and site data through your browser settings, which will prompt the banner to appear again on your next visit.

You can also manage cookies through your browser settings, for example to:

  • Block all cookies
  • Block third-party cookies only
  • Delete existing cookies
  • Set preferences for specific websites

Note: Disabling strictly necessary cookies may affect the functionality of our website and your ability to use some features, such as logging in.

5. Cookie Duration

Cookies may be either "session" or "persistent" cookies:

  • Session cookies: Temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser
  • Persistent cookies: Remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them

6. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the updated policy on our website.
