How we use cookies and similar technologies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website. They allow websites to remember information about your visit — such as whether you're logged in — making the site work properly and improving your experience.

These cookies are strictly necessary for SmartlyServe to function. Without them, you cannot log in or use the platform. These cookies cannot be disabled while using the Service. They are set by us and stored locally in your browser (localStorage).
We use Google reCAPTCHA to protect login and registration forms from automated abuse. Google's own privacy policy applies to these cookies: policies.google.com/privacy. If you disable reCAPTCHA cookies, form submissions may be blocked.
Google Fonts loads our chosen typefaces from Google's servers. This results in Google receiving your IP address. See Google's Privacy Policy. We do not use analytics or advertising cookies.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling essential cookies will prevent you from using SmartlyServe. Browser-specific instructions:
The SmartlyServe app (not the landing page) stores your login session and bakery settings in browser localStorage rather than cookies. This is local to your device and is not transmitted to third parties. It is cleared when you log out.
We may update this Cookie Policy when we introduce new features. Material changes will be notified in-app.
