Cookie Policy
The cookies and browser storage Phonebox uses, and why.
These documents take effect when Phonebox launches. They are reviewed by the owner before publication.
This policy explains the cookies and similar browser storage that the Phonebox website and console use. Phonebox is operated by Steelworks Software LLC, a limited liability company registered in Delaware, United States.
Essential cookies
When you sign in to the console, our authentication provider sets cookies that keep you signed in and protect your session. The console can't work without them, so they can't be switched off.
Analytics
We use product analytics to understand how the website and console are used. The analytics script stores a random identifier in a cookie and in your browser's local storage, so it can count visits and tell them apart. The data goes to our analytics provider through our own /ingest proxy on the Phonebox domain. Anonymous visits use a random browser profile. When you sign in, that browsing history is linked to your account.
Preferences
When you close the announcement box on the website, your browser's local storage remembers it for a week so the box stays closed.
What we don't use
We don't use advertising cookies or cross-site tracking.
Managing cookies
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. If you block essential cookies, you won't be able to sign in to the console. Blocking analytics cookies doesn't change how Phonebox works.
For questions about cookies, email team@phonebox.dev. Material changes to this policy will be published on this page with an updated date.
