SashBoard

Cookie Policy

Last updated October 16, 2026

This policy explains what SashBoard (made by Cresta Studios LLC) stores on your device, and which outside services your browser or the app talks to. It covers sashboardapp.com, every pageant’s SashBoard website and portal, and the SashBoard app. Our privacy policy covers everything else about your information.

1. The short version

SashBoard sets no cookies, runs no advertising, and uses no tracking that follows you to other websites. That is why you don’t see a cookie banner. If that ever changes, we’ll update this policy and ask for your consent first where the law requires it.

2. What we keep on your device

Instead of cookies, SashBoard uses your browser’s own storage (local storage, session storage and IndexedDB), or the app’s storage on your phone. It stays on your device and is not sent to us with each visit. We use it only to make SashBoard work:

• Staying signed in. Your sign-in session, so you don’t have to sign in on every visit. Signing out removes it.
• Working offline. A copy of your portal, and any changes you made while offline, so the app keeps working at a venue without signal. Signing out removes it.
• Your settings. Light or dark mode, list or calendar views, sounds, which pageant you picked, and similar choices.
• Drafts. Messages and forms you haven’t sent yet, and your place in a document.
• Remembering your email on the sign-in page, so you don’t retype it.
• Tickets and check-in. Tickets you bought and, for door volunteers, the night’s ticket list, so they work without signal.
• Small reminders, such as tips you’ve already seen or dismissed, so we don’t show them again.
• Safety. If someone under 13 tries to create an account, the device remembers for a day.

None of this is used for advertising or to track you. Because it is all needed for SashBoard to work, or simply remembers choices you made, it doesn’t need a consent banner.

3. Counting visits to our website

On sashboardapp.com’s public pages (not inside any portal or the app), we count visits with Vercel Web Analytics. It sets no cookies, doesn’t identify you, and doesn’t follow you to other sites. It tells us things like how many people read a page and which country they came from.

4. Outside services your browser talks to

Some features load content from other services. When they do, those services see your device’s IP address and the page you came from, as any website you visit would:

• jsDelivr delivers some of the open-source code SashBoard runs, such as the PDF viewer and QR codes.
• OpenStreetMap draws maps, for example a venue’s location.
• Photon (Komoot) suggests addresses as you type one, and receives the text you type.
• Open-Meteo shows the weather for an event, and receives the event’s location.
• Stripe handles checkout when you pay for a plan, a ticket or a vote. Checkout opens on Stripe’s own page, and Stripe may use its own cookies there to process the payment and prevent fraud, under Stripe’s cookie policy.
• Link previews. When someone shares a link in a message, the preview image may load from that website.
• Notifications. The app receives push notifications through Apple (iPhone, iPad and Mac) or Google Firebase Cloud Messaging (Android).

5. Your choices

You can clear SashBoard’s storage anytime in your browser’s settings (usually under privacy or site data), or by signing out. On a phone, deleting the app removes its storage. Clearing it signs you out and resets your settings, but doesn’t delete your account; to do that, see Settings › Privacy › Delete my account, or our privacy policy.

6. Changes and contact

If we change this policy, we’ll update the date above. Questions: hello@sashboardapp.com, or Cresta Studios LLC, 4963 West Willowstone Drive, Highland, Utah 84003.
