Cookie Policy
Last updated 4 September 2026
Flash stores very little on your device, so this is short. There is no advertising, no tracking pixels and no third-party analytics.
What we store
Strictly necessary. One cookie signs you in and keeps you signed in, and protects forms against cross-site request forgery. We also keep a note of the cookie choice you made here so we stop asking. Neither can be switched off: without them there is no account to use. They last until you sign out, or until you clear them.
Preferences. Small conveniences remembered on your device so they survive a refresh, such as a display option you have switched on in your dashboard. These are optional, they last until you change the setting again, and we only write them if you accept.
That really is all
We run no advertising cookies, no social media pixels and no third-party analytics. Visits to public artist pages are counted on our own servers without storing anything on your device; our Privacy Policy explains how.
Instagram grids shown on an artist's page are fetched by our servers and the images proxied through Flash, specifically so that Instagram cannot set cookies on you or see that you visited.
Your choice
Strictly necessary storage does not need consent and cannot be switched off. Without it the service does not work. Everything else is opt-in, and choosing “Essential only” both stops us writing it and clears anything already stored.
You can change your mind at any time: . You can also clear cookies and site data in your browser, though signing out is what removes the session cookie.
