Cookie policy

Diarybird uses a handful of cookies, and every one is strictly necessary: to keep you signed in, keep bookings secure, or take a payment you asked to make. There are no advertising, analytics or tracking cookies, so we don't ask for consent — the law doesn't require it for cookies like these.

Booking pages on a business's own website

Businesses can show the Diarybird booking page inside their own website. That website may use its own cookies, including analytics — those are the business's, covered by the business's own cookie notice, not this one.

Local storage

The Diarybird dashboard remembers a few display choices on your device, such as which service the calendar shows. They never leave your browser and aren't used to track you.

Turning cookies off

You can block cookies in your browser settings, but signing in and paying online won't work without them. Questions: hello@diarybird.com. See also the privacy notice.
