Cookie & Storage Notice
Last updated: 25 September 2026
Essential storage
Fellow uses essential cookies or similar browser storage for sign-in sessions, security, plan access, remembering privacy choices and keeping core app features working. These are used because the requested service would not work properly without them.
Optional technologies
Optional third-party tools are not loaded simply because you visit Fellow. Where a feature needs an external embedded or realtime service, such as an optional voice provider, you are given a choice before that provider is enabled. If analytics or similar optional technologies are added in future, they should follow the same preference.
Current Fellow preference cookie
| Name | Purpose | Category | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| scholarbridge_privacy_choices_v1 | Remembers whether you chose essential-only or allowed optional services. | Essential preference storage | Up to 180 days |
Authentication and application storage
Authentication providers may set session cookies required to keep you signed in securely. Fellow also uses local browser storage for some offline-first preparation preferences and progress continuity. Where those items are required for a feature you ask to use, they are treated as functional storage rather than advertising or behavioural tracking.
Changing your choice
Use the Privacy choices button shown on Fellow to change your preference at any time. You can also clear cookies or site data using your browser settings. Choosing “Essential only” does not stop the cookies or storage that are needed for sign-in, security and the service you request.
Third-party services
If you actively enable a third-party feature, that provider may use its own storage or process technical information needed to deliver the feature. Fellow should provide a just-in-time explanation before enabling optional providers.
