Short version: Stowra uses no advertising, analytics or tracking cookies, and no third-party trackers. That is why there is no cookie banner. The app only stores what it needs to work in your browser, which does not require consent under the ePrivacy rules and the CNIL’s guidance.
This website (stowra.app)
The marketing site and the changelog set no cookies and store nothing in your browser. Public share pages store nothing either.
A public share page does count how often it is opened, so whoever published it can see whether anyone is reading it. That counting happens on our own server, with no cookie, no JavaScript on the page and no third party involved: we record the day, the host name of the site you followed the link from, if any, and nothing that identifies you or your browser. See the privacy policy for what is kept and for how long.
The “Request access” button opens a form hosted by Tally, which may set its own strictly necessary cookies. See Tally’s privacy policy.
The app (app.stowra.app)
The app keeps the following in your browser’s local storage, IndexedDB and cache storage. None of it is used to track you or shared with advertisers.
| What | Why | How long |
|---|---|---|
| Sign-in session | Keeps you signed in (set by our authentication provider, Supabase) | Until you sign out or the session expires |
| Offline data and app cache | A local copy of your workspace, the app’s files and photos you have viewed, so the app loads fast, syncs and works offline | Until you clear site data |
| Current workspace | Opens the workspace you last used | Until you clear site data |
| Theme and colour palette | Remembers light or dark mode and your colours | Until you clear site data |
| Table views and panel states | Remembers sorting, columns and which panels are open | Until you clear site data |
| Last release seen | Shows the “What’s new” dot only when there is a new release | Until you clear site data |
| Photo link cache | Avoids re-fetching short-lived links to your private photos | Until you clear site data |
If you choose “Continue with Google”, Google may set its own cookies on its sign-in pages.
Managing storage
You can clear this data at any time from your browser’s site settings. Doing so signs you out and resets your preferences on that device; your workspace data is safe on our servers.
Changes
If we ever add cookies or storage that need your consent, we will ask for it first and update this page. Questions: [email protected]. See also the Privacy Policy.
