Essential session cookie
VoiceChatMate keeps a live connection between your browser and the server. A session cookie is issued so reconnects and interactive rendering work reliably. If you block this cookie, the interactive lobby and chat rooms may fail to load or disconnect frequently.
Local storage (not a cookie)
The lobby stores a display name suggestion and ephemeral identifiers in localStorage so you do not have to retype them on every visit.
You can clear site data in your browser to remove them.
Advertising (Google AdSense)
This site may load Google AdSense to display advertisements. AdSense and related Google services may set cookies or use similar technologies for ad delivery, frequency capping, and fraud prevention. You can manage ad personalization in your Google account settings and limit third-party cookies in your browser.
Analytics (Umami)
VoiceChatMate uses Umami, a privacy-oriented analytics service, to understand aggregate traffic (for example which pages are visited and general device types). Umami is configured without cross-site tracking profiles like classic Google Analytics. You can still block the script with browser extensions or tracking protections.
Your controls
- Use private or incognito mode if you want a clean cookie jar per session.
- Use browser settings to block third-party cookies if you want to limit AdSense-related storage.
- Revoke microphone or camera permission in your OS or browser settings between sessions.
