Data Protection Officer

Contact our DPO at dpo@host.plex.gg for any data protection question or request.

Cookies

We use first-party cookies only, with two exceptions: Clerk and Stripe set strictly-necessary cookies for authentication and payment, and Sentry sets a functional cookie when error monitoring is enabled. We do not use analytics cookies today, so no consent banner is shown. If we add analytics in the future, we will add a consent banner at that time.
