Cookies & local storage

Website preferences

The theme control stores your light, dark or system preference in local storage under the key theme. This remains in your browser until changed or cleared. Gigi's introductory audio stores a 1 flag in session storage under gigi-intro-attempted after a playback attempt, including browser-blocked autoplay, to avoid repeating autoplay when you return to the homepage or refresh. This flag lasts for the tab session and does not prevent manual replay. Locale handling may use the NEXT_LOCALE cookie; only English routes are enabled at launch. The exact locale-cookie behaviour and expiry must be verified in the final deployment.

Winnie session cookie

Starting a consented Winnie session sets twc-winnie, an HttpOnly, SameSite=Strict cookie with a one-hour maximum age. Production requires HTTPS for this cookie. It identifies the secure interview session and protects access to review and submission; it is not an advertising identifier. Browser cookie expiry does not delete conversation data from ElevenLabs or the app.

Authentication storage

Choosing account or Google sign-in uses authentication cookies and may involve storage controlled by Neon Auth and Google. These support the sign-in function you request. The final deployed cookie names, scopes and durations must be inventoried before launch; this draft does not claim a complete verified provider-cookie list.

Your choices

You can change your theme with the website's theme control and manage or clear cookies and local storage through your browser. Blocking required session storage can prevent sign-in or interview submission. Browser microphone permission is separate from consent to recording and processing; revoke it through your browser's site settings.

Optional tracking

No advertising, marketing-pixel or optional analytics integration is currently configured in the application. This does not mean the hosting or authentication providers process no technical data. If optional tracking or other non-essential storage is added, its legal basis and any required prior consent and withdrawal controls must be implemented before it is enabled. A banner alone is not a substitute for controlling the actual scripts and storage.
