Last Updated: April 23, 2026
This cookie notice provides you with information about how we use “cookies”, or, similar technologies, on our Social Learning Platform Application offered at https://slp.everydayspeech.com (the “Platform”).

About this Cookie Notice
This cookie notice applies when you use the Platform. This notice may be supplemented by additional cookie notices, or terms, provided on certain areas of the Service or during our interactions with you.
Use of Cookies
Cookies are small pieces of data (text files) that are placed on your computer or device by websites that you visit or applications you use. Cookies are widely used in order to make websites and applications work, or work more efficiently, and help them remember certain information about you, either for the duration of your visit (using a “session” cookie) or for repeat visits (using a “persistent” cookie).
Below provides an overview of the first and third party cookies we use within our Services. We classify cookies in the following categories:
- Strictly Necessary Cookies: These cookies do not store any directly identifiable information. However, they are necessary for the Service to function. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but without these cookies, some or all of the services you have asked for may not function properly.
- Performance Cookies: These are analytics and research cookies that allow us to count visits and measure traffic, so we can measure and improve the performance of our Services. They also help us to know which pages are the most and least popular, and see how visitors move around the site or application. This helps us to improve the way our Services work and improve user experience. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies. Blocking these cookies will not affect the service provided you.

Cookies Set by everydayspeech.com (Marketing Site)
The following cookies are set by the Everyday Speech marketing website (everydayspeech.com) via its tag management system (Google Tag Manager, container GTM-KCDCMNM). Because they are set on the .everydayspeech.com root domain, they are technically visible in a user’s browser while on the SLP subdomain. However, the SLP application makes no requests to any of these services and performs no tracking via these cookies. This was confirmed by network monitoring, none of these pixel endpoints are contacted during an SLP session.
