The short version: We use a few essential cookies and browser-storage items to make SetAura work (your theme, login, saved sets). Analytics cookies (Google Analytics) only load after you click "Accept all" on our cookie banner. You can change your choice any time using the button in section 5. We never use cookies for advertising.
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. "Browser storage" (localStorage and sessionStorage) works similarly but stays on your device and isn't sent automatically with every request. Together they let a site remember your preferences, keep you logged in, and understand how the site is used.
This policy explains exactly what we store, why, and how you stay in control. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
We use two categories of cookies and storage:
We do not use advertising, marketing, or tracking cookies, and we do not sell data to third parties.
These are always active because SetAura needs them to work. Most are browser-storage items that never leave your device:
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
sf_cookie_consent | localStorage | Remembers your cookie choice (accept / reject) | Until cleared |
sf-theme | localStorage | Your dark / light mode preference | Until cleared |
sf-session-id | localStorage | Anonymous device ID for ratings & abuse prevention | Until cleared |
sf_gen_count | localStorage | Counts the free sets you've generated | Until cleared |
soundforge_history | localStorage | Your previously generated sets (this device only) | Until cleared |
sf-profile-avatar | localStorage | Your display name and avatar preference | Until cleared |
sf_flags | localStorage | Feature states (e.g. notices you've dismissed) | Until cleared |
sb-*-auth-token | localStorage | Your login session (set by Supabase when signed in) | Until logout / expiry |
A handful of other minor preference keys (e.g. your language choice, dismissed tips, onboarding state) are stored the same way — as browser-storage that never leaves your device and is never sent for advertising. None of the items above are cookies; the only cookies SetAura uses are the optional Google Analytics ones below.
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand which features are used most, how long sessions last, and which pages are visited. This helps us prioritise improvements. These cookies only load after you click "Accept all" on our cookie banner — they are blocked by default using Google Consent Mode.
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
_ga | Google Analytics | Distinguishes unique users (anonymised) | 2 years |
_ga_* | Google Analytics | Maintains session state for GA4 | 2 years |
Analytics data is aggregated and is not used for advertising. We do not enable Google's advertising features or remarketing. You can also opt out of Google Analytics across all sites using Google's opt-out browser add-on.
When you first visit SetAura, a banner asks whether you accept analytics cookies. Until you choose, no analytics cookies are set. You can change your decision at any time:
Clicking the button above reopens the cookie banner so you can accept or reject analytics. Rejecting will stop new analytics cookies; to remove existing ones, clear your browser's site data (see section 6).
You can control or delete cookies and stored data directly in your browser at any time. This also clears your saved sets and preferences stored on this device:
Note: blocking essential cookies/storage may prevent parts of SetAura from working (for example, you may be logged out or lose your saved sets).
We may update this Cookie Policy as our service evolves or the law changes. When we make significant changes we will update the "Last updated" date above and, where appropriate, ask for your consent again.
