Cookie Policy

How Workestra uses cookies and similar technologies on workestra.app and within the application.

Document ID: WST-POL-COOK-v1.0 · Effective Date: 2 May 2026 · Governing Law: Delaware, USA


This Cookie Policy explains how Workestra LLC ("Workestra", "we", "us") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on workestra.app and within the Workestra application (collectively, the "Service"). It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website or use a web application. They allow the Service to recognize your device and remember information about your visit, such as your authentication state, workspace selection, or theme preference. We also use closely related browser technologies such as localStorage, sessionStorage, and IndexedDB to provide a fast, reliable experience.

2. Categories of Cookies We Use

2.1 Strictly Necessary

Required for the Service to function. They cannot be disabled without breaking sign-in, workspace switching, and core navigation.

Cookie / storagePurposeDuration
Supabase auth session (sb-*-auth-token)Authenticates your accountSession / persistent if "remember me"
workestra-active-workspaceTracks the workspace you are currently viewingUp to 1 year
CSRF / anti-forgery tokensProtects against cross-site request forgerySession

2.2 Functional

Remember your preferences to improve usability.

Cookie / storagePurposeDuration
themeStores your light/dark mode preference1 year
sidebar-stateRemembers whether the sidebar is collapsed1 year
recent-viewsPowers "recently viewed" lists in modules90 days

2.3 Performance and Analytics

Help us understand aggregate usage so we can improve the Service. Where required by law, these are loaded only after you give consent.

Cookie / toolPurposeDuration
Vercel AnalyticsAggregated, privacy-friendly page-view metrics for workestra.appUp to 1 year
Sentry session replay (where enabled)Diagnoses production errors via redacted session reconstructionUp to 90 days

2.4 Marketing

Workestra does not currently use advertising, retargeting, or cross-site tracking cookies. If we ever do, we will list them here and require explicit opt-in where required by law.

3. Third-Party Cookies from Integrations

When you connect a third-party integration (Google, Microsoft, Slack, Stripe, Mollie, etc.), the third party may set its own cookies subject to its own policies. We do not control those cookies. Disconnecting the integration removes Workestra's access but does not always clear the third party's own cookies — refer to that provider's documentation.

When required by law (for example for visitors located in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland), we present a consent banner before loading non-essential cookies. You can change your preferences at any time using the link at the bottom of workestra.app or by clearing your browser cookies. Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent.

Note: A consent management interface may be progressively rolled out. Until then, you can manage cookies via your browser settings (see Section 5).

5. Managing Cookies in Your Browser

Most browsers allow you to block, delete, or manage cookies through their settings:

BrowserCookie Settings Location
ChromeSettings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data
FirefoxSettings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
SafariPreferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
EdgeSettings → Cookies and Site Permissions

Disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from signing in or using the Service. Disabling functional cookies will reset preferences each visit.

6. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control

Workestra honors the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal where applicable. When we detect a GPC signal, we treat it as an opt-out of any "sale" or "share" of personal information under California law. Because Workestra does not sell or share personal information, this primarily affects analytics behavior.

7. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in our practices or applicable law. We will update the version number and effective date when we do.
