The short version
Faye uses the minimum number of cookies required to keep you logged in. We do not use marketing cookies, tracking pixels, advertising cookies, or any third-party analytics cookies. That's it.
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file that a website stores in your browser. Cookies are used for things like keeping you signed in between visits. They are not programs and cannot run code or carry viruses.
Cookies Faye Social uses
Faye Social sets only essential session cookies. These are strictly necessary. The app cannot function without them. We do not ask for your consent to set them because there is no alternative: they are required for authentication.
| Cookie name | Purpose | Duration | First or third party? |
|---|---|---|---|
sb-access-token | Keeps you signed in (Supabase Auth session) | 1 hour (auto-rotated on use) | First party |
sb-refresh-token | Silently refreshes your session so you stay logged in without re-entering your password | 60 days (rolling) | First party |
Both cookies are set on the fayesocial.app domain, stored only in your browser, and never shared with third parties.
What we do NOT use
- Marketing or retargeting cookies
- Advertising cookies (Google Ads, Meta Pixel, etc.)
- Third-party analytics cookies (Google Analytics, Mixpanel, etc.)
- Tracking pixels or web beacons
- Cross-site tracking of any kind
We do use Vercel Analytics to understand aggregate page performance. Vercel Analytics is cookieless. It does not set any cookie in your browser and does not track you across sites.
How to control cookies
You can block or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings. Be aware that blocking the Faye session cookies will sign you out and prevent you from signing back in until cookies are re-enabled.

Changes to this policy
If we ever start using additional cookies, we will update this page and notify you in the app before those cookies are set. We will never add non-essential cookies without giving you a way to opt out.
