Cookie & Tracking Policy
1. Summary
Patshi is deliberately light on tracking. We do not load analytics, advertising, or marketing trackers by default, and we do not set any tracking cookies on the public waitlist page. We use a small amount of your browser’s local storage to make the site work and to remember your preferences.
2. Cookies
The public waitlist page does not set advertising or analytics cookies. The only cookie we use is a functional session cookie in the private admin area (used by our team to log in); it is strictly necessary and is not set for ordinary visitors.
3. Local storage we use
These entries are stored on your own device. They are not transmitted to advertisers and are not used to track you across other websites.
| Key | Type | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
patshi_waitlist | Functional | Keeps a local copy of your submission so it is never lost. |
patshi_waitlist_unsynced | Functional | Queue of submissions that failed to send; retried automatically. |
patshi_theme | Preference | Remembers your light/dark appearance choice. |
patshi_motion | Preference | Remembers your animations on/off choice. |
patshi_cookie_consent_v1 | Consent | Records your analytics consent choice, only if a non-essential provider is ever enabled. |
4. Third-party embeds
- Fonts: The site uses the Inter font, self-hosted from our own server. It does not send your data to Google Fonts. (If a future page loads fonts remotely, we will update this policy and, where required, ask for consent.)
- Social embeds (e.g. Instagram): The current site does not embed Instagram or other social widgets. If we add them later, those providers may set their own cookies; we will request consent through the banner described below before loading them.
5. If we enable analytics or marketing in future
We will not load any analytics or marketing scripts until you give consent. If we enable such a provider, a
consent banner will appear. Non-essential scripts load only after you choose “Accept”,
and your choice is saved in patshi_cookie_consent_v1. You can change your choice at any time (see below).
6. Managing your choices & clearing storage
- Change consent: if a consent banner is shown, use its controls to accept or decline; you can reopen it from the footer link when available.
- Clear Patshi local storage: open your browser’s developer tools → Application/Storage → Local Storage → select this site → delete the
patshi_*keys. Or clear site data via your browser’s privacy settings. - Block cookies generally: most browsers let you block or delete cookies in their settings; note that blocking strictly-necessary items may break parts of the site.
