Cookie Policy

1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how VanillaSky ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on vanillasky.ai. We believe in transparency about how we use technology, and we are committed to keeping your browsing experience private.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your web browser. They are widely used to make websites work, improve efficiency, and provide information to site owners. Similar technologies include localStorage and sessionStorage, which store data in your browser without being sent to a server with every request.

3. Cookies and Storage We Use

VanillaSky uses only essential browser storage required for the Service to function. We do not use any third-party tracking cookies, advertising cookies, or analytics cookies.

Essential localStorage

• Brand kit: Stores your brand colors, fonts, and style preferences so they persist between sessions. This data never leaves your browser.
• Application state: Stores UI preferences and feature flags to ensure a consistent experience.

Essential sessionStorage

• Prompt data: Temporarily stores your video prompt during a session so it can be passed from the landing page to the editor. This data is automatically cleared when you close the browser tab.
• Video configuration: Temporarily stores your video settings during the editing session.

4. Third-Party Cookies

VanillaSky does not set any third-party cookies. We do not use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or any other third-party tracking or advertising services. Our hosting provider (Cloudflare) may set essential security cookies (such as __cf_bm) to protect against bots and malicious traffic — these are strictly necessary and cannot be used to track you across other websites.

5. How to Manage Cookies

You can manage or delete cookies and local storage through your browser settings. Here is how to do it in common browsers:

• Chrome: Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and other site data
• Firefox: Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
• Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data
• Edge: Settings > Cookies and site permissions > Cookies and site data

Please note that clearing localStorage will reset your brand kit and other saved preferences. The Service will continue to function without stored data, but you will need to reconfigure your preferences.

6. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal, regulatory, or operational reasons. We will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page when we make changes.
