Cookie Policy
Effective date: 1 October 2026 Last updated: 1 October 2026
This policy explains how RedBlackTree Technologies Private Limited, the company behind Methodical, uses cookies and similar technologies on methodical.ai and in the Methodical product. Read it with our Privacy Policy.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser. Similar technologies, such as local storage, do the same job. Some last only until you close your browser; others stay for a set time. Some are set by us; others are set by services we use.
2. How we use them
We use three kinds:
- Strictly necessary. Needed for the website and product to work and stay secure — for example to keep you signed in, protect forms from abuse, and remember your cookie choices. They are always on, because the site cannot work without them.
- Preferences. Remember choices such as light or dark mode. They don't track you.
- Analytics. Tell us which pages people visit and which buttons they use, so we can improve the site. These are off until you turn them on.
We do not use advertising cookies, and we do not let advertisers track you across other websites through our site.
3. The cookies we use

|---|---|---|---|---|
| methodical_analytics_consent | Methodical (local storage) | Strictly necessary | Remembers whether you accepted analytics | Until you change it or clear your browser |
| Sign-in session | Methodical | Strictly necessary | Keeps you signed in to the Methodical app | Until you sign out, or the session expires |

4. Your choices
When you first visit methodical.ai, we ask whether you accept analytics cookies. Nothing but strictly necessary cookies is set until you choose. You can change your mind at any time through Cookie settings in the footer of every page — withdrawing is as easy as agreeing.
You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. If you block strictly necessary cookies, parts of the site and product will stop working.
5. Changes
We will update this policy when the cookies we use change, and change the "Last updated" date.
