Cookie Policy
Effective date: March 8, 2026 · Last updated: March 8, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Prevue ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on prevue.io and what choices you have. By using the Service, you agree to our use of strictly necessary cookies as described below. For all other cookies, we ask for your consent through our cookie banner.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to recognize your browser and remember certain information across pages or sessions.
We also use similar technologies including:
- localStorage — browser storage used for non-sensitive preferences such as your theme (light/dark mode) and cookie consent choice. This data stays on your device and is not transmitted to our servers.
- Session tokens — used by our authentication provider (Clerk) to keep you logged in securely.
2. Cookies We Use
We categorize cookies by their purpose. The table below describes each category, its purpose, and whether consent is required.
Strictly Necessary Cookies

| __session | Clerk | Maintains your authenticated session so you stay logged in. | Session |
| __client_uat | Clerk | Client-side user authentication token for Clerk cross-origin auth. | 1 year |

3. Your Consent Choices
When you first visit Prevue, a cookie banner appears at the bottom of the page. You can:
- Accept all cookies — enables strictly necessary cookies (always on) and analytics cookies (PostHog). We will load analytics scripts only after you accept.
- Decline analytics cookies — only strictly necessary cookies are used. No analytics events are collected or transmitted. You can still use all features of the Service.
Your preference is stored in your browser's localStorage under the key prevue-cookie-consent. You can change your preference at any time by clearing this key or by clicking "Cookie Preferences" in the site footer.
GDPR / PECR / ePrivacy Notice
If you are located in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction with opt-in cookie consent requirements, we will not load analytics cookies until you provide explicit consent. Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent under these frameworks.
4. How to Manage Cookies in Your Browser

- View which cookies are set and delete individual cookies;
- Block cookies from specific websites or third parties;
