Can I use Talkala with all cookies disabled?
Not reliably. Session cookies are part of how sign-in works. Block them and you will probably get locked out of your own account.
Talkala Cookie Policy
Talkala uses essential cookies and browser storage to keep sign-in, security, and your preferences working. It also uses Vercel Web Analytics for aggregate page-view measurement without third-party analytics cookies. No ad pixels. Here is what is actually stored, why, and what breaks if you block it.

What storage Talkala currently uses
A mix of cookies and local browser storage. Some keep your session alive. Some remember your preferences so the app does not reset every time you reload. Nothing exotic.
- Authentication and session cookies keep you signed in.
- Admin verification uses a short-lived cookie after the emailed verification flow succeeds.
- Theme, layout, and presentation preferences can live in browser local storage.
- Some cleanup and layout preferences are also mirrored to browser storage for smoother reloads.
What this storage is for
Running the app. Keeping you signed in. Making the interface consistent between visits. That is it. This is not a behavioral-advertising or retargeting stack.
Analytics and advertising
Talkala uses Vercel Web Analytics to understand aggregate page views and navigation patterns. It is not an advertising, retargeting, or cross-site tracking stack, and it does not add third-party analytics cookies.
What happens if you block or clear storage
Things break. Sign-in can fail. Sessions can end early. Your saved preferences will reset. That is what happens when you remove the storage the app depends on. Not a punishment. Just physics.
Common questions
Related questions
Does Talkala use cookies for ad targeting?
No. Current storage supports sessions, security, preferences, and aggregate web analytics. There are no ad-targeting cookies.
Why did my theme or layout preference reset?
Your browser storage was probably cleared, blocked, or unavailable in the current context. That is where preferences live.
