Updated August 16, 2026
1. Website and analytics
The public website does not currently set analytics, advertising or preference cookies. Vercel Web Analytics is cookieless. Essential hosting/security infrastructure processes ordinary requests without a persistent analytics cookie. Because no non-essential cookies are used, no cookie-consent banner is shown.
2. Polar and external pages
Polar checkout and its portal may use necessary, fraud-prevention or preference cookies under https://polar.sh/legal/privacy. GitHub and other external sites may set cookies on their domains. We cannot control them.
3. Native app storage
Theme, workspace references, trial timestamp, licence state, updates and analytics choice stay locally and are not browser cookies. Keys use macOS Keychain. Optional Aptabase app analytics use a short session identifier and a daily rotating server identifier; disable future events in Settings → Privacy & Analytics.
4. Controls and changes
Manage or clear website data and third-party cookies in Safari, Chrome, Firefox or Edge. Blocking third-party cookies may affect Polar. The site does not sell or share data for behavioural advertising and follows applicable Global Privacy Control duties. Do Not Track has no uniform standard. If we add non-essential cookies, we will update this list and the consent controls first. Questions: help@themarkdowneditor.app.
