Cookie Policy
Last updated October 25, 2026
This page lists every cookie and every piece of browser storage DoughTally uses, what each one is for, and how long it lasts. It's a short list.
01The short version
DoughTally uses only what it needs to work: cookies that keep you signed in and make the links in our emails work, one small note in your browser, and — if you install the app — a cached copy of its files. We also count page visits with a cookie-free analytics tool, so we know which pages people use.
There are no advertising cookies, no tracking across other websites and no social-media pixels. Nothing here is used to build a profile of you or sold to anyone.
02What cookies are
A cookie is a small text file a website asks your browser to keep, and to send back on later visits. Similar technologies — like your browser's local storage and an installed app's cache — store small amounts of information on your device too. This policy covers all of them.
04Other storage on your device
Install-card note (local storage). If you dismiss the “install the app” card, your browser keeps a note named doughtally-install-dismissed with the time you did it, so the card stays away for 30 days.
App cache. If you install DoughTally to your home screen or desktop, your device keeps a copy of the app's own files (scripts, styles, icons) and a simple “you're offline” page, so it opens quickly. It never stores your invoices, recipes, prices or any other business data — those are always loaded fresh.
05Visit counts (no cookies)
We use Vercel Web Analytics, from our hosting provider, to count page visits — for example, how many people opened the pricing section or the invoice import this week. It sets no cookies and stores nothing on your device, and it doesn't follow you to other websites.
For each visit it records the kind of page (we strip anything after a “?” and replace record numbers, so it sees “an invoice page”, never which invoice), the referring site, and general device details such as browser, operating system and country. Visits can't be tied to your account, and a visitor can't be recognised from one day to the next.
06What we don't use
- No cookie-based analytics or measurement tools (such as Google Analytics).
- No advertising or retargeting cookies, and no tracking pixels.
- No social-media buttons or embeds that set their own cookies.
- No fonts or scripts loaded from other companies' servers on our pages — they're served from doughtally.app.
07Why there's no cookie banner
Cookies that are strictly necessary for a service you've asked for — like staying signed in — don't need a consent pop-up, and our visit counting sets no cookies at all. Since that's all we use, we don't show one. If we ever add anything that isn't strictly necessary, we'll update this page first and ask for your consent before setting it.
08Controlling them
You can see, block or delete cookies and site data in your browser's settings (usually under Privacy or Site settings). Logging out removes the sign-in cookie.
If you block cookies for doughtally.app, you won't be able to log in — the sign-in cookie is how DoughTally knows it's you. Clearing site data also clears the install-card note and the app cache; uninstalling the app removes its cache too.
09Changes
If what we store changes, we'll update this page and the date at the top. For how we handle your information more generally, see our Privacy Policy.
