Cookie Notice

Effective: 2026-05-04 Last updated: 2026-07-12

This Cookie Notice explains how AIGI uses cookies and similar storage on your device.


1. What is a Cookie?

A cookie is a small text file stored on your device by your browser when you visit a website. We also use related browser technologies such as localStorage and sessionStorage. For brevity, this notice refers to all of them as "cookies."

2. Cookies We Use

Strictly Necessary (always on; no consent required)

These are required for the Service to function. Disabling them will break sign-in.

Cookie Purpose Lifetime
session JWT session cookie. Identifies your authenticated session after sign-in. HttpOnly, Secure, scoped to aigovbrief.com subdomains so the app and API share the session. 7 days

Analytics (cookieless — no analytics cookies are set)

We use PostHog (managed cloud, United States) to understand which pages and briefs are most useful. PostHog runs in cookieless mode: it counts unique visitors using a hash of your IP and user agent that resets daily, and no persistent identifier is stored on your device — no analytics cookie, no localStorage profile. This mode is consistent with EDPB Guidelines 2/2023 and the UK ICO 2024 cookies guidance.

If we ever introduce consent-based analytics cookies, we will update this Notice and put an on-site consent step in place at least 30 days before any such cookie is set.

Performance / Web Vitals (always on, no PII, no cookies)

We collect anonymous page-performance metrics (LCP, INP, CLS) via the web-vitals browser library and report them as events through the same cookieless PostHog pipeline described above. These are aggregated and never tied to an individual user. No cookies are set.

3. Third-Party Cookies

The pages where you provide payment information are served by Stripe. Stripe sets its own fraud-prevention cookies on its checkout pages. Those cookies are governed by Stripe's privacy policy: https://stripe.com/privacy.

We do not use third-party advertising cookies, social-media tracking pixels, or remarketing tags.

4. Managing Cookies

Browser controls: All major browsers let you block or delete cookies. Be aware that blocking the strictly-necessary session cookie will break sign-in.

Analytics opt-out: We set no analytics cookies and store no persistent analytics identifier on your device, so there is no analytics cookie to withdraw. Questions about the cookieless analytics described above: email privacy@aigovbrief.com.

Global Privacy Control / Do Not Track: Because we set no analytics or advertising cookies and do not sell or share personal information for cross-context advertising, a GPC or DNT signal does not change what is stored on your device — nothing beyond the strictly-necessary session cookie ever is.

5. Changes

If we change cookie usage materially (for example, introducing any analytics cookie), we will update this Notice at least 30 days before the change takes effect and add a consent step where one is required.
