Cookie policy

Last updated 1 September 2026

Residuals runs no analytics, no advertising and no cross-site tracking. The only cookies and browser storage it uses are the ones that keep you signed in, remember your theme, and let you pay securely.

What we use

Sign-in session

Strictly necessary

Keeps you signed in between visits. Stored by our authentication provider in your browser and, on some devices, as a first-party cookie.Kept: Until you sign out or the session expires

Sign-in attempt

Strictly necessary

Remembers whether you were signing up or signing in, and where you were heading, while you complete a Google sign-in.Kept: Cleared when the browser tab closes

Appearance preference

Functional

Remembers whether you chose the light or dark theme.Kept: Until you clear your browser storage

Checkout

Strictly necessary

When you start a purchase you are handed to Stripe, which sets its own cookies on its own pages to complete the payment securely.Kept: Set and controlled by Stripe

Why there is no cookie banner

Consent is required for cookies that are not necessary to deliver a service you asked for. Everything above is either strictly necessary for signing in and paying, or a functional preference you set yourself by tapping the theme toggle. Nothing here profiles you or follows you to other sites, so there is nothing to ask you to accept. If we ever add analytics or anything similar, we will ask for your consent first and update this page.

Third-party cookies

When you start a purchase we hand you to Stripe’s hosted checkout, which sets its own cookies on its own pages to process the payment and prevent fraud. That is governed by Stripe’s own privacy and cookie notices. Residuals embeds no social, advertising or analytics scripts, so no other company sets cookies through us.

Managing it yourself

You can clear cookies and site data for Residuals in your browser settings at any time. Doing so signs you out and resets your theme; your account records are untouched. Blocking cookies and site data entirely will stop sign-in from working, because the session has nowhere to live.
