Analytics Cookies
We use Vercel Web Analytics and Speed Insights to understand how visitors interact with our website.
We use Vercel Web Analytics and Speed Insights for website analytics and performance measurement. Both are cookieless on ringby.co.uk: no cookies are set, no cross-site tracking, and page views are counted without identifying you. For this reason, Vercel Analytics does not appear in any cookie table above.
Payment Cookies
Seat checkout and the billing portal run on Stripe-hosted pages (checkout.stripe.com / billing.stripe.com). Stripe sets its own cookies there under Stripe's cookie policy; ringby.co.uk itself sets no payment cookies.
3. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are set by third-party services we use to operate Ringby:
- Clerk. Authentication cookies for user sign in and session management. See Clerk's Cookie Policy.
- Stripe. Seat checkout and billing portal (Stripe-hosted pages only). See Stripe's Cookie Policy.
- Cloudflare. Bot management and Turnstile verification cookies. See Cloudflare's Cookie Policy.
4. How to Manage Cookies

- Chrome: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and other site data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Cookies and website data
- Firefox: Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
