Cookies Policy
Effective date · July 4, 2026
This Cookies Policy explains how beatriceschneider.com (the "Site"), operated by Tee Schneider ("we," "us," or "our"), uses cookies and similar technologies. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies include local storage and session storage, which websites and apps use to store small amounts of information in your browser. We refer to all of these as "cookies" in this policy.
The cookies we use
Our Site is intentionally light on cookies. We do not use advertising cookies, and we do not use third-party analytics or tracking cookies to profile you.
Strictly necessary cookies (always active)
These are required for the Site to function and cannot be switched off through our Site.
| Purpose | Set by | What it does | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Login / authentication | Supabase | Keeps you signed in to the members-only area and secures your session. Stored in your browser's local/session storage. | Session and short-lived tokens; cleared when you sign out |
| Security and performance | Cloudflare | Helps protect the Site from malicious traffic and deliver pages reliably. | Session-based up to about 1 year |
Third-party embedded media
When you view member-only films, videos are embedded from Vimeo. If you play a video, Vimeo may set its own cookies to enable playback and remember playback preferences. These cookies are controlled by Vimeo, not by us, and are governed by Vimeo's own privacy and cookie policies. Similarly, links to press articles, YouTube, and social media take you to third-party sites that set their own cookies. We do not place these third-party media cookies unless you interact with the embedded content.
Legal basis and your consent (Canada — PIPEDA)
Under Canadian privacy law (PIPEDA), we rely on your consent for the use of non-essential cookies. Because our Site uses only strictly necessary cookies for its own operation — and third-party media cookies are set only if you choose to play embedded video — we do not display an intrusive cookie banner. The specific purposes of each cookie are described above so that your consent is meaningful and informed. You can withdraw consent at any time using the browser controls described below.
How to control cookies
You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings, including blocking cookies or deleting existing ones. Most browsers also let you block third-party cookies specifically, which would prevent embedded Vimeo/YouTube content from setting cookies (this may stop that content from playing).
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Third-party cookies
- Safari: Settings → Privacy
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions
If you block strictly necessary cookies, parts of the Site — including staying signed in to the members-only area — may not work.
Global Privacy Control
Our Site honors the Global Privacy Control (GPC) browser signal as an opt-out of any "sale" or "sharing" of personal information. See our Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information page for details. (Note: we do not sell or share your personal information in the first place.)
Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version here with a new effective date.
