Cookie Policy

1. What are cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help a website function, remember preferences, or gather usage information. Some cookies are strictly necessary for a site to work; others are optional and require your consent under UK law.

2. Cookies we currently use

CheckWaldo currently uses only strictly necessary cookies — the kind needed to keep the site working, such as session cookies set by our hosting provider, Vercel. These don't require consent under UK PECR rules, and we don't currently run any analytics, advertising, or tracking cookies.

3. Cookies we may add in future

As CheckWaldo grows, we may introduce optional analytics cookies to understand how the site is used. If we do, we'll add a cookie consent banner so you can accept or decline them, and this policy will be updated to list exactly what's added and why.

4. Third-party cookies

Some pages embed third-party content that may set its own cookies — for example, the QR code image service used on our homepage. We don't control these cookies directly; check the relevant provider's own cookie policy for details.

5. Managing cookies

Most browsers let you view, delete, and block cookies through their settings. Since we only use strictly necessary cookies today, blocking them may affect how the site functions.

6. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time, particularly as we introduce new features. Material changes will be reflected by an updated "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
