Cookie Policy

Last Updated: March 21, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Heylomeet ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies, local storage, and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our application and website. It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

1. What are Cookies and Local Storage?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website or app. Cookies are widely used by service providers to make their websites or services work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

Local Storage is a technology that allows a website or app to store data locally within your web browser. Similar to cookies, it can be used to store user preferences and app states, but it can store larger amounts of data and is not automatically transmitted to the server with every HTTP request.

2. How We Use Cookies & Local Storage

We use cookies and local storage for specific, limited purposes. Our platform relies on these technologies primarily to provide core functionality, keep your session secure, and remember your choices.

Specifically, we use these technologies for the following purposes:

A. Essential / Strictly Necessary

These are necessary for the app to function properly. We cannot provide our services without them.

Authentication (Cookie): We use a secure cookie to store your session token. This allows you to log in and access your account securely without repeatedly asking for your credentials.
Progressive Web App (PWA) Status (Local Storage): We track whether our app has been installed on your device to optimize your experience.

B. Functionality & Preferences

These allow our app to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, personalized features.

User Preferences (Cookie & Local Storage): We store your local application preferences (such as theme and layout choices).
Notification Controls (Local Storage): We remember if you have dismissed certain persistent elements, such as the PWA installation banner or meeting notifications, so we don't show them to you repeatedly.
Push Notifications (Local Storage): We store a secure token necessary to deliver real-time push notifications to your device.

C. Analytics and Performance

We use third-party analytics services to help us understand how users interact with our app so we can improve it.

PostHog: We use PostHog for product analytics to understand app usage patterns and improve performance. PostHog may use cookies to track user behavior across sessions.
Firebase / Google Analytics: We use Firebase Analytics for crash reporting and tracking aggregate feature usage to improve application stability and performance.

D. Third-Party Technologies

Some elements of our service, such as integrated video conferencing, may set their own cookies or use local storage when you interact with those specific features. These third parties have their own privacy and cookie policies governing the use of your data.

3. How to Manage Your Cookies

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies.

Browser Controls: You can set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our app, though your access to some functionality and areas may be restricted (for example, you will not be able to log in).
Clearing Local Storage: You can clear local storage data directly from your browser settings (usually found under "Privacy and Security" or "Clear Browsing Data"). Doing so will reset your local preferences and require you to log back in.
Analytics Opt-Out: For third-party analytics like PostHog or Google Analytics, you can often opt-out directly through their respective privacy portals or by using browser extensions designed to block analytics trackers.

Since the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser-to-browser, you should visit your browser's help menu for more information.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Please revisit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.

The date at the top of this Cookie Policy indicates when it was last updated.
