About This Notice
This notice explains how Strand AI Bio Corp. uses cookies and similar technologies on strandai.com, app.strandai.com, and other Strand AI websites and services that link to this notice. A cookie is a small data file stored by your browser. Similar technologies include browser storage, pixels, and software that records technical events about how a service is used.

| PostHog — analytics and performance | Understand page and product usage, diagnose errors and performance, evaluate features, and record session replays to investigate usability problems. PostHog sets a first-party cookie whose name begins with ph_ and uses browser storage. | Up to one year for the first-party analytics cookie |
| Cloudflare — security and performance | Deliver and protect our websites and collect technical performance information. Some Cloudflare telemetry does not require a cookie. | Varies by technology |

Analytics on the Public Website and in the Platform
PostHog behaves differently on our public website than it does in the authenticated Platform.
Public website (strandai.com). PostHog loads automatically on every page. We do not display a cookie banner and do not ask for consent before it loads. It sets the first-party ph_ cookie described above, automatically captures pageviews and interactions such as clicks, collects page-performance and network-timing measurements, and may record a session replay of your interactions with the page.
Platform (app.strandai.com). PostHog performs the same analytics and associates activity with your signed-in account. Session replay in the Platform is additionally constrained by our application code: password and other credential fields are masked, credential-bearing elements are excluded from capture, browser console output is not recorded, and designated credential URL parameters are replaced before analytics data leaves your browser. We also exclude the authorization-consent page from capture, and opening it directly turns session replay off until the Platform is loaded again on a different page.
Your Choices
Most browsers let you view, remove, or block cookies and clear browser storage. Blocking essential cookies may prevent sign-in or other Platform features from working. Blocking analytics may reduce our ability to understand and improve the services but should not prevent basic access to the public website.
Strand AI does not currently provide a separate cookie-preference dashboard. Use your browser settings to control stored cookies and related browser data.
Changes to This Notice
We may update this notice and will post the revised notice with a new last-updated date. We will provide additional notice when required by law.
