What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device when you visit them. They help websites remember information about your visit, like your preferences or login status.
Most websites use cookies extensively to track users, build profiles, and serve targeted advertising. Oosby takes a different approach.
What Oosby uses (and doesn't use)
✅ Essential Cookies Only
We use minimal essential cookies for:
- • Keeping you signed in securely
- • Remembering your preferences (like language)
- • Security and fraud prevention
- • Basic functionality of the website
These are necessary for the website to work and are not used for tracking.
❌ What We Don't Use
Oosby does NOT use:
- • Analytics cookies (Google Analytics, etc.)
- • Marketing or advertising cookies
- • Social media tracking pixels
- • Third-party tracking scripts
- • Cross-site tracking cookies
We believe privacy shouldn't be a premium feature.

Third-party services
Oosby website currently uses minimal third-party services:
Google Fonts
We load fonts from Google Fonts for consistent typography across devices.
This may create minimal logging on Google's side, but no personal data is shared.
Cloudflare
Our website is delivered through Cloudflare for security and performance.
Cloudflare may set security-related cookies, but these are not used for tracking.
Your choices
Because we use so few cookies, and none for tracking, you have simple choices:
Browser Settings
You can disable cookies entirely in your browser settings, but this may affect the functionality of websites (including Oosby).
Most browsers allow you to block third-party cookies while allowing essential first-party cookies.
Incognito/Private Mode
Using private browsing will prevent most cookies from being stored permanently.
However, you'll need to sign in again each time you visit.
Future changes
Our commitment
We're committed to keeping our use of cookies minimal and transparent. If we ever need to use additional cookies, we will:
- • Update this policy to clearly explain what's changed
- • Only use cookies that serve a genuine functional purpose
- • Never use cookies for advertising or behavioral tracking
- • Give you clear control over any non-essential cookies
Privacy isn't a feature we plan to compromise on.
