Our Approach to Cookies
TEMPO is designed to respect your privacy. We use essential cookies only — strictly the minimum required to keep you logged in and the application secure.
What Cookies We Use
Essential / Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are required for the service to function and cannot be disabled. They are set only in response to actions you take (such as logging in) and do not track you for advertising purposes.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| session | Maintains your authenticated session | Session (cleared on logout) |
| csrf_token | Protects against cross-site request forgery attacks | Session |
No consent is required for strictly necessary cookies under GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive (Recital 25).
Analytics: No Cookies
We use Plausible Analytics for website statistics. Plausible is a privacy-first, EU-hosted analytics tool that:
- Sets no cookies whatsoever
- Stores no personal data or persistent identifiers
- Does not track you across websites or sessions
- Does not require a cookie consent banner
- Is fully compliant with GDPR, CCPA, and the ePrivacy Directive
All analytics data is aggregated and anonymous. You can read more at plausible.io/privacy-focused-web-analytics.
Third-Party Cookies
We do not use third-party advertising networks, social media tracking pixels, or retargeting cookies. When you connect Garmin or Strava, those services may set their own cookies within their OAuth flow — please refer to their respective cookie policies.
How to Control Cookies
Because we use only essential cookies (and cookieless analytics), there is nothing to opt out of on our end. However, you can always:
- Browser settings: Block or delete cookies via your browser's privacy settings (Settings → Privacy → Cookies).
- Private/Incognito mode: Prevents any cookies from being saved after you close the window.
- Clear cookies: Delete existing cookies at any time through your browser's developer tools or settings.
Note: disabling essential cookies will prevent you from staying logged in.
Changes to This Policy
If we ever introduce non-essential cookies, we will update this policy, add them to the table above, and obtain your consent before setting them.
