Cookie Policy
Last updated: September 5, 2026
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that websites and web applications store on your device when you visit. They allow the site to recognize your browser, remember your preferences, and provide a smoother, more personalized experience. Similar technologies, such as local storage and session storage, perform comparable functions and are treated consistently with cookies under this policy.
2. Why We Use Cookies
We use cookies to keep you signed in, maintain your session state, protect your account from unauthorized access, remember your interface preferences, and understand how visitors interact with Breve. Some cookies are strictly necessary for the service to function, while others help us measure and improve performance.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
3.1 Essential Cookies
These cookies are required for Breve to operate. They support authentication, session management, and security features. Without them, you would not be able to sign in, generate briefings, or access your saved history.
3.2 Preference Cookies
Preference cookies remember choices you make, such as your preferred daily briefing time, selected topic categories, or display settings. They enable a more consistent experience across visits.
3.3 Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies collect aggregated, pseudonymous information about how users navigate and use Breve. We use this data to identify popular features, measure performance, detect errors, and guide product development.
3.4 First-Party and Third-Party Cookies
First-party cookies are set directly by Breve. Third-party cookies are set by trusted partners we use for authentication, analytics, and payment processing. We do not allow third-party advertisers to set tracking cookies through our service.
3.5 Session and Persistent Cookies
Session cookies exist only while your browser is open and are deleted when you close it. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a defined period after you leave the site, so we can remember your preferences on future visits. Authentication tokens are typically persisted until you sign out or they expire.
4. How We Protect Cookie Data
Authentication and session cookies are transmitted exclusively over encrypted HTTPS connections and are marked with appropriate security flags to reduce the risk of interception or tampering. We validate session identifiers on the server for every request and expire them after periods of inactivity. Cookie values do not contain raw passwords or full account credentials.
5. Managing and Disabling Cookies
Most browsers allow you to view, delete, or block cookies through their settings. You can usually configure your browser to reject all cookies, accept only first-party cookies, or prompt you before a cookie is set. Please note that disabling essential cookies will prevent you from signing in or using core Breve features.
In addition to browser controls, you can clear locally stored data at any time by signing out of your account or clearing site data in your browser settings.
6. Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may revise this Cookie Policy as our service or applicable regulations evolve. When we make material changes, we will update the effective date and, where appropriate, notify users through the application or by email. Your continued use of Breve after changes take effect indicates your acceptance of the revised policy.
