Cookie Notice
This Cookie Notice explains how Quadra Audio (“Quadra,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies in connection with quadraaudio.com and any other website we own or control that posts or links to this Cookie Notice (collectively, the “Sites”).
It covers browser cookies, local storage, session storage, pixels, and similar technologies used with our Sites. Our Mac desktop apps (MATRIX, MEAS, WAYS) may store license and preference data on your device under macOS; those practices are described in the Privacy Policy and product Documentation.
This Notice forms part of our relationship with you together with the Privacy Policy, Terms of Use & EULA, and Refund Policy.
Cookie and similar technology categories
On the Sites, we use cookies and other tracking technologies in the categories described below.
| Type | Description | Who serves them | How to control |
|---|---|---|---|
| Essential | Required for the Sites to operate: security, load balancing via our CDN, cart/checkout state, Quadra ID session tokens, Terms-acceptance records, and cookie-preference storage. Without these, sign-in, store, and activation flows may not work. | Quadra (first-party); Cloudflare (hosting/CDN); Supabase Auth (session materials stored in browser storage after Google sign-in); Stripe (checkout session when you pay). | Always on. You can clear browser storage, but Account, bag, and activation features may break until you sign in again. |
| Functionality / performance | Remembers UI choices and improves reliability of store and account flows (for example cart contents and draft library import state while you work in the browser). | Quadra (first-party browser storage). | Tied to essential Site operation today. Clear site data in your browser to reset. |
| Analytics | Helps us understand aggregate traffic and feature usage. Quadra does not currently deploy third-party analytics cookies on the Sites. If we enable analytics later, we will update this Notice and request consent where required before setting non-essential analytics cookies. | None active on the Sites today. | Use the cookie banner or Cookie Preferences (when analytics is offered) to accept or reject. You can also block cookies in your browser. |
| Advertising | Used by advertising networks for interest-based ads. Quadra does not use advertising cookies on the Sites. | None. | Not applicable while unused. |
| Social | Supports social login or sharing widgets. We use Google only as an identity provider for Quadra ID; we do not embed social sharing or advertising pixels from other networks on the Sites. | Google (OAuth / account profile data during sign-in), under Google’s privacy policy. | Do not sign in with Google if you do not want that flow. Manage connected apps in your Google account settings. |
2. Similar technologies we use
Browser web storage (localStorage / sessionStorage). Our static Sites store Quadra ID session materials, cart contents, Terms-acceptance version timestamps, cookie preferences, and short-lived library import drafts in browser storage rather than traditional cookies. These serve the same operational role as essential cookies.
Web beacons / pixels. We do not currently embed marketing or session-replay pixels on the Sites. Transactional emails from providers we use may include standard delivery pixels under those providers’ policies.
Flash LSOs and mobile SDKs. We do not use Flash technology or mobile app SDKs on the Sites. Our Mac apps are native desktop software, not mobile apps distributed through this website’s cookie stack.
Session-replay. We do not use session-replay products (such as FullStory) on the Sites.
3. Your choices
Cookie banner and preferences. When you first visit the Sites, a banner lets you acknowledge essential technologies and set preferences for non-essential categories (such as analytics) when those categories are offered. You can reopen preferences anytime from the Cookie Preferences control in the site footer or by visiting /legal/cookies.
Strictly necessary cookies and equivalent storage do not require consent, but we still disclose them here.
Browser controls. Most browsers let you remove or reject cookies and clear site storage. If you disable essential storage, sign-in, checkout, bag, and activation may not work correctly. Learn more at https://www.allaboutcookies.org.
Blocking images. You can configure your browser or device to limit image loading, which can affect some tracking pixels if we ever use them.
Industry opt-outs. If we later use interest-based advertising partners, you may use tools from the Network Advertising Initiative (https://optout.networkadvertising.org) or the Digital Advertising Alliance (https://optout.aboutads.info). Those tools do not currently apply because we do not run advertising cookies.
Google account. To limit what Google shares when you create a Quadra ID, review Google’s account and privacy settings before signing in.
4. How this relates to privacy

5. Changes
We may update this Cookie Notice from time to time. The version identifier and effective date at the top of the page will change when we do. Material changes will be highlighted on the Sites or via Account email where appropriate.
