What cookies are
Cookies are small text values a website stores in your browser. Browser storage performs a similar role for limited interface and workflow state.
Talup’s current approach
Talup does not use analytics, advertising or marketing cookies. Essential authentication cookies may operate before you press OK on the information notice because they are required when you ask to sign in or use protected features. The OK button only acknowledges that you have seen the notice.
First-party cookies
| Name | Purpose | Lifetime | Security | Type |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| talup_session | Keeps an authenticated session, protects login state and stores short-lived security state such as OAuth redirects. | Up to 7 days after the latest authenticated activity | Yes HttpOnly · Yes in production · SameSite Lax | First-party · Strictly necessary |
| talup_cookie_notice | Remembers that this version of the essential-cookie notice has been acknowledged. | 6 months | No; the notice script reads it HttpOnly · Yes in production · SameSite Lax | First-party · Interface preference |
OAuth state and any enabled CSRF security state are kept within the signed Talup session; Talup does not create a separate OAuth or CSRF cookie.

External services
Google, GitHub and LinkedIn may use cookies on their own websites while handling OAuth sign-in. Stripe may use cookies on Stripe-hosted checkout or billing pages. Cloud or security infrastructure may also set strictly necessary cookies where configured. Those provider-domain cookies are controlled by the relevant provider and are not Talup advertising cookies.
Managing cookies
You can delete cookies and browser storage through your browser settings. Deleting talup_session signs you out. Blocking essential cookies may prevent login, OAuth security checks and protected Talup features from working.
Future changes
Talup will update this policy and its user controls before introducing any optional analytics, advertising or marketing cookies. A material policy change will use a new notice version so the information notice can appear again.
