1. What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files a website stores on your device. Browser storage (localStorage) works in a similar way, and this policy covers both. Some are strictly necessary for a site to work; others are optional and used only with your consent.
2. Current Status
Therox itself sets no cookies on therox.app today, and stores nothing in your browser. Our network provider, Cloudflare, may set a short-lived security cookie (see below). We use no advertising or cross-site tracking cookies, ever.
Optional analytics are switched off. If we turn them on, a banner will ask for your consent first, and nothing optional loads unless you choose "Accept." Declining costs you nothing on the site.
3. Cookies and Storage
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Consent | Lasts |
|---|---|---|---|---|
cf_clearance, __cf_bm | Cloudflare | Tells real visitors apart from bots and blocks abusive traffic. Strictly necessary | Not required | Short-lived (30 minutes by default) |
therox_consent | Therox | Remembers whether you accepted or rejected analytics. Strictly necessary, and set only once analytics are offered | Not required | 1 year |
ph_* cookie and browser storage | PostHog, for Therox | Analytics: a random ID for your browser so we can see which pages help and where people drop off, in aggregate | Required (opt-in) | 1 year. Currently off |
4. Cookieless Measurement
We count visits with Cloudflare Web Analytics, which uses no cookies, no browser storage and no fingerprinting. It reports page views, referring sites, browser type and country in aggregate, and it cannot recognise you across visits. Because it stores nothing on your device, it needs no consent.
5. Optional Analytics (PostHog)
If you accept analytics, we use PostHog, hosted in its EU cloud in Frankfurt, Germany, so this data stays in the EU. It records the pages you view, how you move between them, and basic device and browser details. We do not use it for advertising, we do not sell it, and we do not combine it with your waitlist email. See our Privacy Policy for how long we keep data and your rights over it.
6. Managing Your Choice
When analytics are offered, you can accept or reject them in the banner, and change your mind at any time with the Cookie settings link in the footer of every page. Rejecting stops analytics straight away and deletes the analytics cookie and browser storage from your device.
You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking Cloudflare's security cookie may mean you are asked to prove you are human more often.
7. Changes
If we add a cookie or change what one does, we update this page and the date at the top before the change goes live.
