Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser so it can recognise you between page loads. Some are essential for a site to function; others exist to track you. So Far So Good uses only the first kind.

Sign-in cookies (prefixed sb-, plus sfsg_auth_at). They keep you signed in to your account and note when you last confirmed a sign-in code. They are set when you log in and cleared when you log out.

A download cookie (sfsg_dl), set for two minutes when you download an Early Copy, so the download can start.

One share cookie (sfsg_v), set only if you arrive through a shared Track ID or an Ambassador’s invitation. It holds a random value and nothing else: not your name, not your account, and no record of what you listened to or looked at. Its only job is to credit the person whose share or invitation brought you here, should you go on to download an Early Copy of that track or create an account. The credit lasts 7 days per track for a share and 30 days for an invitation; the cookie itself expires after a year.

Payment cookies, set by our payment processor only when you open the card form at checkout. They exist to detect fraud and keep the payment secure.

We also keep a few settings in your browser’s own storage, such as your colour theme and player state, so the site looks and plays the way you left it.

No analytics cookies, no advertising cookies, no third-party trackers, no social-media pixels, and no device fingerprinting — we never read your fonts, canvas, screen or hardware to recognise you. None of the cookies above follows you between sites, and none is used to build a profile of you. We do count how many people visit each day, but that uses no cookie and stores nothing on your device; how it works is in section 2 of the Privacy Policy — and none of it comes from tracking cookies.

Consent banners are required for cookies that track you. Because we set only cookies that are needed to deliver what you asked for — staying signed in, downloading, honouring the share you followed and paying safely — there is nothing to interrupt you about. If we ever introduce a cookie that tracks or profiles you, we will ask for your consent first and update this policy.

You can block or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings. The consequences on So Far So Good: you won’t be able to stay signed in or download, and if you followed someone’s shared Track ID or invitation, they won’t be credited for it.

If our use of cookies changes, this page and its date will change with it. Questions: the contact form.
