Cookies policy

Last updated: 13 July 2026

This page explains what cookies and similar local-storage technologies Modyx uses on its website (modyx.co) and in its dashboard. For where your dictations and certificates go, see the privacy policy.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small files stored on your device by your browser. They let a website remember things between page loads (such as whether you are signed in). Some other technologies — like localStorage — work in similar ways and are covered here too.

What we use

Strictly necessary

  • JWT session token (localStorage) — keeps you signed in to the dashboard. Cleared when you log out or delete your account. Without this, the dashboard cannot function. No consent required.

Analytics (signed-in dashboard only)

  • PostHog— measures product usage in aggregate. We send only event names (e.g. “signup_completed”) and your account ID; no personally identifying details, no certificate content, no customer data. We use PostHog’s EU Cloud, so the data is held in the EU. PostHog is not loaded on the public website — it only runs once you have signed in.

    Opt out at any time. Open Settings → Privacy → Product analytics and switch off the toggle. The setting is stored in your browser’s local storage and takes effect immediately on this device. Email us if you would like the opt-out applied account-wide.

Error monitoring — Sentry

We use Sentryfor error and crash reporting on the website and on our servers. It is hosted in Sentry’s EU region (Germany). It records the error, the page you were on, your browser, and an internal account ID so we can find the fault. Login links are stripped out of any address before it is sent, so a report can never contain a working sign-in token.

Sentry is not enabled in the iOS app— the app currently sends no crash data at all. If we switch it on, we will say so here first.

What we do not use

  • Advertising or marketing cookies
  • Third-party tracking pixels
  • Social-media share trackers

How long do cookies last?

  • JWT session token — until you log out, or up to 7 days, whichever comes first. After that you sign in again.
  • PostHog — persistent identifiers expire 365 days after last activity.

Your choices

You can clear cookies and localStorage at any time through your browser settings. Doing so will sign you out of Foreman and you’ll need to log in again.

To opt out of product analytics specifically, switch off Settings → Privacy → Product analytics in the dashboard, or email hello@modyx.co and we will exclude your account.

Mobile app

The Modyx mobile app does not use browser cookies. It stores your session token in the device’s secure storage and uses the same product analytics described above, with the same opt-out. No browser cookies are read or written by the mobile app.

Changes to this policy

We will update this page and revise the “Last updated” date. If we add new categories of cookie that require consent, we will surface a banner first.
