Cookie Policy
Silvertext is a product name of, and is operated by, Elowin Labs LLC. This policy lists the cookies and similar browser storage used on silvertext.com and app.silvertext.com, what each one does, how long it lasts, and how to change your choice. It is part of our Privacy Policy.
1. What this covers
A cookie is a small text record a website stores in your browser and sends back on later requests. Browsers also offer local storage, which stays on your device and is never sent to our servers. This page lists both: anything that remembers you or a choice you made between page loads.
2. Essential cookies
These keep you signed in, carry a free scan into your account, and keep the site secure. They run without consent because the Service cannot work without them; the consent control shows them as always on.
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Lasts |
|---|---|---|---|
| __session, __client_uat, __clerk_db_jwt | Clerk, our sign-in provider, on app.silvertext.com | Your signed-in session and whether it is still fresh. Set only once you sign in. | For the session, refreshed while you use the app |
| st_consent | Silvertext | Your answer to the cookie banner, so every page honors it. | 180 days |
| st_gscan, st_gclaim | Silvertext | Hands a free scan started on silvertext.com to your account when you sign up, so the report you were reading is the one you keep. | 10 minutes and 2 hours |
| __cf_bm, cf_clearance | Cloudflare | Tells people from automated traffic and remembers a passed security check, including the check on our contact and waitlist forms. | 30 minutes to 1 year |
3. Preferences kept in your browser
The app remembers a few preferences in local storage so they survive a reload. Nothing here is sent to us; clearing your browser storage resets them to the defaults.
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Lasts |
|---|---|---|---|
| st-theme | Silvertext app | Light, dark or system theme. | Until you clear browser storage |
| st-nav-layout, st-nav-min | Silvertext app | Where the navigation sits and whether the sidebar is collapsed. | Until you clear browser storage |
| st_trial_offer | Silvertext app | Which introductory offer you arrived with. | Until you clear browser storage |
| st-consent | Silvertext | A copy of your banner answer, so the banner does not ask again. | Until you clear browser storage |
4. Analytics
Analytics tells us which pages help and which confuse. It runs unless you decline the Analytics category in the banner or in the preferences control; declining stops it at once and keeps it off on later visits. Two services count visits; one of them uses cookies.
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Lasts |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga, _ga_* | Google Analytics 4 | Tells visits apart and counts page views and product events. Stops when you decline Analytics. Its advertising signals follow the Advertising category (section 5); ad personalization is off in every case. | 2 years |
| st_attr, st_anon | Silvertext | Which campaign or link brought you here, and an anonymous visitor id, so we can tell which pages lead to a first check. If you decline Analytics the same values live only for the current tab. If you arrive from one of our ads, the click id it adds to the address is kept here too: declining Advertising measurement removes it at once and it is then never sent to Google (section 5). | 90 days |
| st_flow | Silvertext | Which version of our sign-up path this browser was shown, so it stays the same on your next visit and we can compare the versions. Holds a letter and a word, nothing about you. Without Analytics consent it lives only for the current tab. | 30 days |
| (none) | Plausible Analytics | Cookieless page-view counting. Plausible sets no cookies and stores nothing in your browser. | Not applicable |
5. Advertising measurement
We advertise Silvertext on Google Search. When you arrive from one of those ads, the address carries a click id (gclid, gbraid or wbraid), kept in our own st_attr cookie above. Advertising measurement runs unless you decline it: Google's tag may then set its measurement cookie, and a trial or paid plan that starts from the ad is reported to Google as a conversion, together with a one-way hash of your email address so Google can match it to the click. That is the whole use: one yes or no per ad, so we know which ads pay for themselves. If you decline the Advertising category, in the banner or later from the preferences control, the click id is removed at once, the tag switches to its consent-denied mode (no advertising cookie, no identifier), and nothing is reported. Nothing here builds an interest profile, ad personalization is off in every case, and we run no remarketing. If your browser sends Global Privacy Control, we treat it as declining Advertising measurement before you answer and after.
Some other sites and assistants add a referral identifier of their own to a link when you follow it here. Where one is present we keep it in the same st_attr cookie, remove it on the same decline, and never send it to an advertiser. It tells us only which source sent you.
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Lasts |
|---|---|---|---|
| _gcl_au and similar | Google Ads, on silvertext.com and app.silvertext.com | Lets Google connect a trial or paid plan to the ad click that led to it. Not set, and removed, when you decline Advertising measurement. | Up to 90 days |
6. What we do not do
Silvertext shows no advertising on its pages, and the only advertising cookie it allows is the measurement one in section 5, which you can decline. We do not sell personal information, we do not build profiles from the text you check, and none of the entries above contains the content of your documents.
7. Your choices
Change your answer at any time from in the footer of every page. Declining Functional, Analytics and Advertising leaves the site fully usable. You can also delete cookies and local storage in your browser settings; if you delete st_consent the banner asks again on your next visit. Signing out of the app clears the Clerk cookies.
8. Changes to this policy
When a cookie or storage key is added, removed or changed, this page changes with it and the date at the top moves. A change that widens what we collect asks for your consent again.
