Cookie Policy
Last updated: 31 March 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Extraudinary ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies when you use our service (the "Service"). It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website when you visit it. They serve a range of purposes — from keeping you logged in to remembering your preferences. Cookies may be set by the website you are visiting ("first-party cookies") or by third-party services running on that page ("third-party cookies").
Similar technologies include:
- localStorage / sessionStorage — browser storage used to persist data between page visits, without sending it to the server automatically
- In-memory state — held only for the duration of a tab session
2. Cookies and Storage We Use
Extraudinary uses a minimal set of cookies and browser storage. The table below lists every cookie and storage key set by the Service.
Essential / functional
These cookies are strictly necessary for Extraudinary to function. Without them, you cannot sign in or use the Service. They cannot be disabled.
| Name | Type | Set by | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| __client_uat | Cookie | Clerk | Tracks whether an active Clerk session exists; used to determine whether a session token refresh is needed | Session |
| __session | Cookie | Clerk | Stores your authentication session token, keeping you logged in between page loads | Up to 7 days (configurable) |
Preference storage
These use browser localStorage (not cookies) to store your preferences locally on your device. No data is sent to our servers.
| Key | Type | Set by | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| cookie_consent_v2 | localStorage | Extraudinary | Records whether you accepted or declined optional analytics, so the banner is not shown again | Persistent (until you clear browser storage) |
Optional analytics
If you choose to accept analytics in the cookie banner, we load the following services:
| Name | Type | Set by | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| _ga and related Google Analytics cookies | Cookie | Google Analytics | Measures page views and product usage in aggregate | Typically up to 2 years |
| PostHog cookies / local storage identifiers | Cookie / localStorage | PostHog | Measures product usage and feature engagement | Persistent (provider-managed) |
These analytics tools are optional and are loaded only after you click "Accept analytics". If you decline, they are not loaded.
What we do NOT use
- Advertising or targeting cookies
- Social media tracking pixels (e.g. Meta Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag)
- Cross-site tracking technologies of any kind
3. Third-Party Cookies
Third-party cookies on Extraudinary may be set by Clerk, our authentication provider, and by our optional analytics providers if you accept analytics. Clerk's cookies are essential to the login flow. Clerk has its own Privacy Policy and cookie notice.
We do not permit advertising or social media tracking technologies on Extraudinary.
4. Managing Cookies
Browser settings
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, block, or delete cookies. The links below provide instructions for common browsers:
Clearing the cookie notice
The cookie notice banner will reappear if you clear your browser's localStorage. This is normal — it simply means the preference record has been removed from your device.
5. Cookies and Singapore's PDPA
Under Singapore's Personal Data Protection Act 2012 (PDPA), we are required to inform users about the personal data we collect and obtain consent where applicable. The cookies we use are either necessary to provide the Service (Clerk authentication), to remember your cookie preference (localStorage), or to support optional analytics that run only after consent.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Material changes will be communicated via a notice in the Service or by email. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent revision.
