# Arriving from the landing page, and the cookie choice

A person reaches Talemo's sign-up from the landing page at talemo.app, from a link
that Talemo's own assistant sends in an Instagram conversation (see
[Sign-up link from a conversation](signup-link-from-chat.md)), or from an email
that leads back to the payment. All of them open the same arrival page, **Opening
Talemo**, which says that the next step is to sign up with an email and a password,
with Google or with Apple, and has the button **Continue**. After signing up, the person goes to
[creating a business](creating-a-business.md).

## The banner

On the arrival page and on the sign-in pages Talemo asks about cookies. The text of
the banner says that Talemo would like to know which ads bring people to it, and
that with the person's consent it:

- uses Meta and Google cookies;
- remembers which conversation the person came from;
- tells Meta and Google when the person signs up or tops up.

It adds that everything works the same without consent, and links to the Privacy
Policy. The two buttons, **Allow** and **Don't allow**, look the same.

## Where the banner asks first

In some places the law asks for the choice before anything is set, and there the
banner appears first: no cookie of Meta or Google is set and nothing is remembered
until the person presses **Allow**. A person who presses **Continue** there
without choosing does not give the consent, and Talemo does not remember which
conversation they came from. This covers the European Economic Area, the
United Kingdom and some other countries, and any visitor whose country Talemo
cannot tell.

Elsewhere a line above the footer says that Talemo uses Meta and Google cookies to
see which ads bring people, with **Details** and **Opt out**. It does not wait for
an answer, and **Opt out** stops it. After an opt-out the line says so and offers **Allow
again**. The **Cookies** link in the footer opens the banner again.

## Remembering the choice

The choice, **Allow** and **Don't allow** alike, is remembered for 180 days, and
repeating the same choice does not extend the time. The landing page and the app
share it, so a person who allowed cookies on the landing page is not asked again on
the arrival page. When the text of the banner changes, a given consent is asked for
again, and a refusal still stands until the 180 days end. Opting out removes what
was remembered from the visit.

## After signing up

When the person signs in, the remembered visit is attached to the account. If the
person named their industry in the conversation, the step **What you do** of
creating a business already has it, marked **from the chat in Instagram**. Everything
else, including the whole product, works the same without the consent.
