Cookie Policy
This policy explains how WorkSwarm uses cookies and similar tracking technologies.
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently and to provide information to the owners of the site. WorkSwarm uses cookies and similar technologies (collectively, "cookies") on workswarm.ai and app.workswarm.ai.
2. How We Use Cookies
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the operation of the Service. They enable core functionality such as security, authentication, and session management. You cannot opt out of these cookies.
- Session cookie — maintains your authenticated session after login. Expires when you close your browser or after 24 hours of inactivity.
- CSRF token — protects against cross-site request forgery attacks. Session-scoped.
- Tenant context — stores your active workspace slug so multi-tenant routing works correctly. Session-scoped.
Functional Cookies
These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalisation.
- Theme preference — remembers your light/dark mode selection. Persistent, 1 year.
- Sidebar state — remembers your sidebar collapsed/expanded preference. Persistent, 1 year.
- Language preference — stores your selected language if you change the default. Persistent, 1 year.
Analytics Cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the Service by collecting and reporting information anonymously. We use analytics to improve the Service.
- Plausible Analytics — privacy-first, cookieless analytics. Plausible does not use cookies and does not collect personal data. No consent required. See Plausible's data policy.
- Snitcher: business-to-business visitor analytics that may identify the organization visiting our public marketing site, so we can understand interest and improve our outreach. Snitcher persists a visitor identifier across sessions only after you accept cookies via our banner; if you decline, it records anonymous visits only. It runs on our marketing site only, never inside the signed-in app. See Snitcher's privacy policy.
WorkSwarm does not use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or any third-party advertising tracker. We do not serve ads.
Third-Party Cookies
Aside from the consent-gated Snitcher analytics cookie described under Analytics Cookies above, WorkSwarm does not set advertising or third-party tracking cookies. However, if you use an OAuth provider (Google, Microsoft) to sign in, that provider may set its own cookies during the authentication flow. Those cookies are governed by the provider's own cookie policy.
3. Managing Cookies
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can:
- Block all cookies — this will prevent you from using the Service, as session cookies are required for authentication.
- Delete cookies — you can clear cookies at any time through your browser settings. This will sign you out of the Service.
- Block third-party cookies — this will not affect the core Service, since we do not rely on third-party cookies.
Browser-Specific Instructions
4. Cookie Duration
- Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies remain on your device for the duration specified above or until you delete them.
5. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Material changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
