Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files a website can store in your browser. TextForense also uses local storage (localStorage), a similar technology that keeps information directly in your browser without automatically sending it with every request the way a traditional cookie does — it is this more efficient technology, for the type of data involved, that we use for most of the cases described below.

We classify what we use into three categories:

• Strictly necessary (always active): the token that keeps you logged into your account, your interface language preference, and a local draft of the text you are typing in the main analysis field, so it isn't lost if the page is accidentally reloaded.
• Functional, restricted to the admin area: interface preferences and admin panel settings, visible only to accounts with administrator permission.
• Third-party, only at payment time: when you subscribe to a plan, you are redirected to a payment page hosted by our partner Stripe (stripe.com), which may set its own cookies under Stripe's own privacy and cookie policy — outside TextForense's reach and control.

We do not use advertising cookies, social media pixels, or any third-party cross-site tracking technology.

Cookies and local storage strictly necessary for the service to work — such as keeping you logged in — are exempt from prior consent under Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive and equivalent provisions of the LGPD, since without them the service itself would not function. Even so, we display a cookie notice on your first visit, for transparency, informing you of what is used and giving direct access to this policy and to our Privacy Policy.

Since we do not currently use any non-essential cookies, the notice's "Accept" and "Reject" options do not change how the site works — both simply record your preference locally and dismiss the notice on future visits. If we introduce non-essential cookies in the future (for example, for analytics), this notice and this policy will be updated before the change takes effect, and new, specific consent will be requested whenever required by law.

You can delete TextForense's cookies and local storage at any time directly in your browser's privacy settings. Note that deleting the necessary storage automatically ends your session, requiring you to log in again, and resets your language preference and any unsaved draft in the analysis field.

TextForense is an artificial intelligence application, and this policy also serves to make that explicit: the content you analyze is processed by a rules engine and AI models to generate the platform's indices, classifications, and reports. This transparency follows the international regulatory movement around AI systems — such as the European Union's AI Act — even where no specific legal requirement yet applies to your case. More details on how we handle automated decisions are in Section 4 of our Privacy Policy.

We may update this Cookie Policy periodically to reflect changes in the service or in applicable law. The date of the last update is always shown at the top of this page.

To understand more broadly how we handle your personal data, see our Privacy Policy.
