Cookie Policy
1. What this covers
"Cookies" here is shorthand for cookies and for similar browser storage such as
localStorage. A cookie is a small file a site asks your browser to keep;
localStorage is a similar store that stays on your device until cleared.
2. The short version
GLOBE.CASH sets no advertising cookies, no analytics cookies and no cross-site
trackers. We use two strictly necessary localStorage entries, both
written by the page itself and neither readable by anyone else. Nothing is shared with a
third party.
3. Exactly what we store
| Name | Type | Purpose | Expires |
|---|---|---|---|
globe.cookies.ack |
localStorage | Remembers that you dismissed the cookie notice, so it does not reappear on every visit. | Until you clear site data |
globe.waitlist |
localStorage | Holds the address you submitted. This exists only while the waitlist has no live backend; once signups post to a server this entry goes away. | Until you clear site data |
Both are strictly necessary: the first records a choice you made, the second is the only thing currently making the form work. Under the UK PECR and the EU ePrivacy Directive, storage of this kind does not require prior consent — but we show the notice anyway so you know it is happening.
4. Server logs
Separately from browser storage, our host keeps standard access logs (IP address, user agent, URL, timestamp) to serve the site and defend against abuse. These are not cookies and are not used to profile you. See the Privacy Policy.
5. Third-party cookies
None. The waitlist page loads no third-party scripts, fonts, pixels or embeds — the fonts and the background animation are served from our own domain. If that changes, this policy will be updated and the consent notice will ask you first.
6. Managing it
You can clear or block this storage at any time in your browser settings — usually under Privacy, "Cookies and site data". Clearing it will make the cookie notice reappear and will remove any locally saved address. The site keeps working either way.
Vendor instructions:
You can also reopen the notice from the Cookie preferences link in the footer of the home page.
7. Do Not Track
There is no agreed standard for how sites should answer Do Not Track signals. Since we do not track you across sites in the first place, the question does not arise.
8. Changes
We will update this policy whenever what we store changes. The "last updated" date above always reflects the current version.
