Cookie Policy

Last updated: December 12, 2025

This Cookie Policy explains how SYNTHESIS, operated by OrzattyStudios ("SYNTHESIS," "we," "our," or "us"), uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our AI-powered coding platform at synthesisai.pages.dev and related services. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides more information about how we handle your personal data.

Your Consent: By continuing to use our website after being presented with the cookie consent banner, you consent to our use of cookies as described in this policy. You can manage your cookie preferences at any time through your browser settings or our cookie preference center.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit them. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and give website owners information about how their sites are being used.

We also use similar technologies that serve comparable purposes:

  • Local Storage: A web storage mechanism that allows websites to store key-value pairs in your browser. Unlike cookies, local storage data is not sent to the server with every request and has a larger storage capacity. Data persists until explicitly deleted.
  • Session Storage: Similar to local storage, but data is cleared when you close your browser tab or window. Used for temporary data that should not persist between sessions.
  • IndexedDB: A low-level API for storing significant amounts of structured data, including files and blobs. We use this to cache project files locally for offline access and performance.
  • Web Beacons (Pixels): Tiny transparent images embedded in web pages or emails that track whether content has been viewed. Used primarily for analytics and email open tracking.
  • Fingerprinting: We do NOT use browser fingerprinting techniques for tracking purposes.

2. Types of Cookies We Use

We categorize our cookies into four types based on their purpose. Below is a detailed breakdown of each category and the specific cookies used.

5. Impact of Disabling Cookies

Disabling cookies may affect your experience on our platform:

  • Functional Cookies: If disabled, your preferences (theme, language, editor settings) will not be saved between sessions. You may need to reconfigure settings each time you visit.

6. Do Not Track (DNT)

Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want your online activity tracked. There is currently no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals.

SYNTHESIS respects DNT signals as follows:

  • When DNT is enabled, we disable analytics and marketing cookies by default

  • You can still manually enable analytics or marketing cookies through our preference center if you choose

  • Session Cookies: Deleted when you close your browser. These are used for temporary data like CSRF tokens.
  • Persistent Cookies: Remain on your device for a set period (as specified in the tables above) or until you delete them manually.
  • Local Storage: Persists until explicitly cleared by you or by our application code.
