Cookies

We use a few cookies to run MITPO, remember your settings, and keep the site safe. Here's what we use and why, kept short on purpose - we don't sell your data or run ads on your visits.

These keep you signed in and the site secure. Without them MITPO can't work, so they're always on.

• Keeps you signed in as you move between pages.
• Security check - makes sure forms on the site are really from you.
• Sign-in helper - gets you back to the right page after signing in with Google.
• Your cookie choice - remembers what you picked below, so we don't ask again.
• Basic safety checks (like your IP address) to stop spam and abuse - no extra cookie needed for this.

These stay on your device only - never sent to us. They just remember how you like things set up.

• Light or dark mode.
• How you like your workspace laid out.
• The AI model you used last time.
• Tips you've already seen, so we don't repeat them.

We look at how people use MITPO so we can make it better. We only look at what actually helps us improve things, and we never sell it. Analytics data doesn't go to advertisers - the one thing that does is the ad measurement below, and it has its own switch.

If you're in the EU, UK, Quebec, Brazil, Japan, or South Korea, this doesn't turn on until you say yes in the cookie banner - see "Your Choice" below.

Separately, we count page visits with a cookie-free method: it stores nothing on your device and can't recognize you as an individual - it only tells us totals, like how many people saw a page.

• Which pages you visit.
• Which buttons and features get used.
• When something breaks or runs slow, so we can fix it.

We run ads on Facebook and Instagram. To find out whether they actually work, we use the Meta Pixel - a small piece of Meta's code that tells Meta when someone who saw one of our ads later came to MITPO or signed up.

This is the one thing on this page that shares data with an advertising company. Meta receives your IP address, which MITPO page you were on, and whether you signed up, and Meta can match that to your Facebook or Instagram account.

If you're in the EU, UK, Quebec, Brazil, Japan, or South Korea, this stays off until you say yes in the cookie banner. Everywhere else it runs unless you turn it off - and you can, at any time, from "Your Choice" below. Turning it off also clears what it stored on your device (cookies named _fbp and _fbc).

• That you visited MITPO, and which page.
• Whether you signed up after seeing an ad.
• Your IP address and browser, which Meta uses to match you to an account.

When you enter a card, Stripe (our payment processor) sets its own cookies for that. We never see or store your full card number - only Stripe's own customer ID for you.

If you're in a region where we need to ask first (EU, UK, Quebec, Brazil, Japan, South Korea), you saw a banner asking you to accept, reject, or customize. We remember your choice for 180 days.

If you're in Australia, we keep analytics covered by this notice and the privacy policy instead of interrupting your first visit with a banner. You can still turn analytics off any time with the preferences button on this page or in the footer.

To change your choice at any time, use the "Manage Cookie Preferences" button at the top of this page, or the same link in the site footer.

If you change your mind and say no after saying yes, we also delete the analytics cookies already saved on your device - not just stop adding new ones.

You can also clear cookies for MITPO in your browser's settings at any time - this will sign you out and reset your saved choices.

If we start using a new cookie that changes this list in a real way, we'll update this page - and the banner will ask for your choice again instead of assuming your old answer still covers it.
