Cookie Policy & Consent Settings
Last updated: July 30, 2026. This Cookie Policy explains how Facilide ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our web application, interactive documentation, live facilitator cockpit, and mobile capture route.
Facilide is engineered around strict data minimization. All session artifacts, notes, and strategy clinic deliverables are written directly to your own local or connected GitHub repository. We do not store your workshop content, session notes, or ideas in any third-party database.
