What this means in practice

Social Maze keeps cookie usage intentionally small. At the time of writing, we use one cookie to remember your consent choice and optional analytics cookies from PostHog when you agree to them.

We do not currently use advertising cookies, retargeting tools, or social media tracking pixels on the marketing site.

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files stored in your browser when you visit a site. They help a website remember choices, maintain sessions, and understand how the site is being used.

We may also use local browser storage for lightweight preference handling inside the interface. It serves a similar role but is not sent with every network request.

Our analytics provider

PostHog is our analytics provider. When analytics cookies are enabled, PostHog may collect page visits, session behaviour, approximate region, browser information, and product interaction events.

PostHog is used to improve the product and website experience. It is not used to serve ads to you.

Your choices

You can accept or decline analytics cookies from the banner when you first visit the site.

You can reopen your preference controls any time using the cookie settings action in the footer.

You can also block or delete cookies through your browser settings, although doing so may reset saved preferences.

Do Not Track

Some browsers send a Do Not Track signal. Because there is no single technical standard for how websites should respond, we currently rely on the consent choices you make through our cookie controls.

Changes to this policy

If we add new cookie categories or third-party tracking tools in the future, we will update this page before those changes go live and adjust our consent flow when required.
