Cookie Policy
Last updated: February 20, 2026
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device to store information about your browsing session. They help websites remember your preferences, keep you signed in, and understand how you use the service.
In addition to cookies, Meeting Bable uses browser local storage and session storage, which serve similar purposes. Local storage persists data between browser sessions, while session storage is cleared when you close your browser tab. Throughout this policy, references to "cookies" include these similar technologies unless stated otherwise.
2. Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary for Meeting Bable to function. They cannot be disabled without breaking core functionality.
| Cookie / Storage | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Firebase Authentication | Session tokens that keep you signed in. Required for login and account access. |
locale | Stores your preferred language. Set automatically based on browser language. 1 year expiry. |
Note: In staging environments, an additional mb-gate cookie may be set for access control. This cookie is not used in production.
Functional Cookies
These cookies remember your preferences and settings to provide a better experience.
| Cookie / Storage | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Language Preferences | Remembers your selected source and target languages for transcription and translation. |
| User Settings | Stores your display preferences and application settings locally for faster access. |
| Cookie Consent | Records your cookie consent choice so the banner is not shown repeatedly. |
Analytics Cookies
With your consent, we use analytics cookies to understand how visitors interact with Meeting Bable. These cookies help us measure which features are used most, identify areas for improvement, and ensure the service runs smoothly. Analytics data is aggregated and does not identify you personally.
| Cookie / Storage | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Analytics Provider | Collects anonymous usage statistics such as page views, session duration, and feature interactions. Only set when you accept analytics cookies via the consent banner. Expires within 2 years depending on the provider. |
If you choose "Essential Only" in the consent banner, analytics cookies are not stored. Cookieless, anonymous measurement pings may still be sent to help us understand overall traffic patterns, but no identifying information is collected or stored on your device.
Advertising Cookies
With your consent, we may use advertising cookies from third-party services (such as advertising platforms) to measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns and show you relevant content. These cookies are only activated when you click "Accept All" in the consent banner.
| Cookie / Storage | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Advertising Platform | Measures ad campaign performance, conversion tracking, and may be used to show relevant advertisements. Only set when you accept all cookies. Managed by the respective advertising provider. |
If you choose "Essential Only," advertising cookies are never stored. We do not sell your personal data to advertisers. Any advertising data is used solely to improve our marketing and is subject to the privacy policies of the respective advertising platforms.
3. Third-Party Cookies
While we do not embed third-party tracking, some of our service providers may set cookies in the course of delivering their functionality:
- Firebase (Google) may set authentication-related cookies when you sign in or manage your account. See the Google Cookies Policy.
- Stripe may set cookies during the checkout and payment process to prevent fraud and manage payment sessions. See the Stripe Cookie Policy.
4. Managing Cookies
You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:
- View which cookies are stored on your device
- Delete cookies individually or in bulk
- Block cookies from specific or all websites
- Block third-party cookies while allowing first-party cookies
- Clear all cookies when you close the browser
Please note that disabling essential cookies will prevent you from signing in to Meeting Bable and will significantly impair core functionality. If you disable functional cookies, some of your preferences (such as language selection) may not be remembered between sessions.
5. Cookie Consent
When you first visit Meeting Bable, we display a consent banner that allows you to accept all cookies or limit usage to essential cookies only.
In accordance with the ePrivacy Directive and similar regulations, essential cookies that are strictly necessary for the service to function do not require your consent. Analytics cookies are only activated after you explicitly accept them via the consent banner.
We use an advanced consent mode where our analytics script loads on every visit for basic traffic measurement, but only stores cookies on your device when you grant consent. If you select "Essential Only," no analytics cookies are stored, though anonymous, cookieless pings may still be sent for aggregate traffic modeling.
You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clearing your browser's cookies for this site, which will cause the consent banner to appear again on your next visit.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal, operational, or regulatory reasons. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies.
