What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to website owners.
How We Use Cookies
Surfolks uses cookies to enhance your experience on our platform, analyze usage patterns, and provide personalized content. We use both session cookies (which expire when you close your browser) and persistent cookies (which remain on your device for a set period).
Types of Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website to function properly. They enable core functionality such as security, network management, and accessibility.
- Authentication cookies
- Security cookies
- Load balancing cookies
Performance Cookies
These help us understand how visitors interact with our website. We set them only if you accept analytics cookies in the consent banner, and they stay off until then.
- Google Analytics — aggregate page views and interactions
Functionality Cookies
Your theme preference (dark or light mode) is saved in your browser's local storage, not in a cookie, and is never sent to us.
Third-Party Cookies
We may also use third-party services that set cookies on your device. These include:
- Google Analytics, only after you accept analytics cookies
- DodoPayments, on its own checkout domain when you subscribe
We do not run advertising or targeting cookies. Sign-in on Surfolks is handled by our own first-party session cookie. We do not use a third-party authentication provider.
Managing Cookies

- Accept all cookies

- Notify you when a cookie is set

Cookie Consent
When you first visit our website, a banner asks whether we may set analytics cookies. Nothing analytical loads unless you accept. You can change your choice at any time with the "Cookie settings" link in the footer, or by emailing privacy@surfolks.com.
