Cookie Policy
What Backer stores on your device, why, and how to change your analytics choice.
What this covers
This policy covers cookies and similar technologies, such as your browser's local storage, used on your device by Backer or by its providers.
Storage the site needs
These items are needed for Backer to work, so they are used without asking for consent.
Entry notice: a record in local storage of which version of the entry notice you agreed to and when, so you are not asked again until the wording changes.
Cookie choice: a record in local storage of your analytics choice, the version of the banner you answered, and when.
Sign-in: if you sign in, Privy stores session information on your device, in cookies or local storage, to keep you signed in and to let your embedded wallet work. Privy's privacy policy covers this storage.
Analytics, only with your permission
If you select Allow analytics, Backer loads Vercel Web Analytics. It sets no cookies. Vercel says it tells visits apart with a hash of the request that is discarded after 24 hours, and it records the page, referrer, country, browser, operating system and device type.
If you select Necessary only, or make no choice, the analytics script is not loaded.
What Backer does not use
Backer does not use advertising cookies or trackers that follow you across other websites.
Changing your choice
To change your choice, select Cookie settings at the bottom of any page, or Change under Cookies and analytics on the Settings page, and the cookie banner will ask again. Clearing this site's data in your browser also resets the choice, signs you out and brings back the entry notice.
If you withdraw permission, analytics stop loading from then on.
Server logs
Vercel, which hosts Backer, logs requests to the site, including IP addresses. This does not store anything on your device.
