?r=x), that code is stored against your account so we can tell which of our own links and partners actually bring people in. It is a short word chosen by us from a fixed list, never a tracking identifier, and it is recorded once when the account is created and never changed afterwards. Nothing is stored in your browser to do this: the code is read from the address you arrived on at the moment you sign up, so if it is not in the address, nothing is recorded. It is never shared, and it tells us nothing about you beyond which link you followed.At present, Edgewise uses only essential/functional storage and does not deploy analytics or tracking cookies, advertising pixels, or third-party trackers. We do keep anonymous page counts on our own server, described in the table below. They use no cookies and store nothing that identifies you.
| Type | Purpose | In use today? |
|---|---|---|
| Essential / functional | Session handling; remembering your waitlist email (browser local storage) | Yes |
| Signup referral code | A short code from the address you signed up on (e.g. ?r=x), stored once against your account so we know which of our links brings people in. No cookie and no browser storage of any kind — if the code is not in the address at signup, nothing is recorded. | Yes — no cookies, no device storage |
| Anonymous page counts | Daily totals: how many times each public page loaded, which kind of site sent the visit (for example a search engine or X), a campaign tag if the link carried one (either a utm_source or the same short ?r= referral code described above), and how many signups and checkouts happened. No cookies, no IP addresses, no browser or device details, and nothing that links a count to a person. | Yes — counts only, no cookies |
| Analytics cookies (optional) | Per-visitor usage patterns | No — not currently deployed |
| Advertising / tracking | — | No |
If we introduce optional analytics in future, we will do so on an opt-in basis with a consent banner, and we will update this policy before any such cookies are set.
