4. Google Analytics
SaySpoke uses Google Analytics for product measurement.
Google Analytics helps us understand:

Google may collect and process information through Google Analytics according to Google’s own terms and policies.
We do not use Google Analytics to read private message text.

Most browsers let you:

- Limit third-party cookies
- Use private browsing modes
- Set site-specific cookie preferences
Blocking or deleting cookies may cause parts of SaySpoke to stop working, especially login, account sessions, preferences, and beta signup flows.
Google Analytics opt-out
You can use Google’s browser add-on to opt out of Google Analytics in supported browsers:
Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on
Device and account settings
Your device, browser, or Google account may provide additional controls related to analytics, ads personalization, cookies, or identifiers.
6. Consent
Where required by law, SaySpoke will seek consent before storing or accessing non-essential cookies or similar technologies.
Required cookies and storage may still be used because they are necessary for the site to function, maintain security, or provide services you request.
7. Changes to this policy
