Cookies

FreeFiler uses essential cookies needed for sign-in, account security, and keeping you signed in while you use the service. These are currently provided through Clerk authentication.

We do not currently use PostHog analytics. It is switched off in the code, and nothing about how you use FreeFiler reaches PostHog while it is off. Analytics are not needed to provide the filing service, so they need your consent — and accepting our terms is not consent. We will ask you properly, and publish an updated privacy policy, before we switch anything on.

Detailed support replay is off unless you switch it on in the form support panel, and replay inputs are masked. It is there so support can understand what happened in an early filing session.

During beta, FreeFiler also keeps a short-retention internal interaction journal with structured form events such as checkbox choices, select/gate answers, validation state, and save or submit blockers. Exact sensitive filing values stay in FreeFiler's own filing systems, not PostHog replay. We do not use advertising or marketing cookies in this filing app.

During early beta, FreeFiler may also generate a short-lived Codex/OpenAI monitoring evidence link for a signed-in filing journey. This is used to check whether the filing path is working and to support early users; it is not used for advertising.
