This Cookie Policy explains how HillSpace (“HillSpace”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website, join our waitlist, or interact with our services.
This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy, and Terms of Service.
By continuing to use our website, you agree to the use of cookies as described in this policy, subject to your browser settings and any cookie preferences you may choose.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They help websites remember information about your visit, improve functionality, understand how visitors use the site, and (where applicable) provide a more personalized experience.
Cookies do not typically identify you by name. Instead, they recognize your browser or device. Similar technologies such as local storage, pixels, and scripts may also be used for related purposes. In this policy, we refer to all of these collectively as “cookies.”
2. Why HillSpace Uses Cookies
We use cookies for the following legitimate purposes:
- Keep the website functioning properly
- Improve website performance and reliability
- Understand how visitors use the platform
- Measure the effectiveness of our content and pages
- Improve overall user experience
- Remember limited user preferences where applicable
- Detect technical issues and security threats
- Support product and platform improvements
We do not use cookies to sell your personal information.
3. Types of Cookies We Use

These cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function correctly. Without them, core features of HillSpace may not work.
Examples include:
- Page navigation and routing
- Security and fraud prevention
- Form submissions (including waitlist signup)
- Session management
- Load balancing
- Basic website functionality
These cookies cannot be disabled through our website settings because they are essential for providing the Service.
3.2 Analytics Cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with HillSpace so we can improve the platform based on real usage data rather than assumptions.

- Traffic sources
- Time spent on pages
- Waitlist conversion performance
Analytics data is collected in aggregated or pseudonymized form and does not directly identify individual users.
3.3 Performance Cookies
Performance cookies help us monitor and improve website speed, reliability, and technical performance.
They allow us to understand:
- Page loading speed
- Responsiveness
- Broken pages or errors
- Server performance
- Resource optimization
3.4 Functional Cookies
Functional cookies remember choices you make to improve your experience.
Examples include:
- Language preference
- Region or city selection (where applicable)
- Form preferences
- User interface settings
At the current pre-launch stage, HillSpace uses only a limited number of functional cookies.
3.5 Marketing / Advertising Cookies
Currently, HillSpace does not use advertising, remarketing, or personalized marketing cookies.
If we introduce advertising campaigns, social media advertising, remarketing, or personalized marketing in the future, we will update this Cookie Policy and, where required by law, obtain appropriate consent before placing such cookies.
4. Cookies Used by Third-Party Services
HillSpace works with trusted third-party providers to operate and improve the platform. These providers may place cookies or similar technologies on your device in accordance with their own privacy policies.
Current or Planned Providers
| Provider | Purpose | Type of Technology |
|---|---|---|
| Vercel | Hosting, performance, uptime, security | Essential / Performance |
| Analytics tools | Understanding site usage and performance | Analytics |
| Brevo | Waitlist management and email communications | Functional / Analytics (email) |
Notes on specific providers:
- Vercel — HillSpace is hosted on Vercel. Vercel may use cookies or similar technologies necessary to deliver content, improve performance, detect abuse, monitor uptime, and maintain reliability. These are primarily technical in nature.
- Analytics — We use analytics tools to measure visitor numbers, popular pages, user journeys, traffic sources, device usage, and overall website performance. Data is used only to improve the HillSpace experience.
- Brevo — We use Brevo to manage waitlist registrations and send email communications. Brevo may use tracking technologies to help us understand email delivery, opens, link clicks, subscription management, and communication performance.
As HillSpace grows, we may introduce additional trusted providers for services such as payment processing, secure escrow, customer support, identity verification, fraud prevention, product analytics, or messaging. When this happens, we will update this Cookie Policy accordingly.
5. Managing Cookies
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can usually:
- View and delete existing cookies
- Block all or specific cookies
- Restrict cookies to certain websites
- Receive notifications before cookies are stored
Please note: Disabling essential cookies may affect the core functionality of the HillSpace website (for example, waitlist forms may not work correctly).
Browser Help Resources
You can find instructions for managing cookies in the official help documentation of major browsers:
Mobile devices also allow cookie and tracking controls through their system settings.
6. Do Not Track Signals
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (DNT) setting. Because there is currently no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals, HillSpace does not alter its cookie practices solely on the basis of a DNT signal.
7. International Visitors
HillSpace may be accessed by users from different countries. Depending on your location, you may have additional rights regarding cookies and personal information under applicable privacy laws (including, where relevant, requirements to obtain consent before placing non-essential cookies).
Where required by law, we will seek your consent before placing non-essential cookies on your device.
8. Updates to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect:
- Changes to our services or technology
- New third-party providers
- Legal or regulatory requirements
- Business or product improvements
When we make significant changes, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page. Where appropriate, we may also provide additional notice (for example, via email or a notice on the website).
