Public product and learning pages are readable without an account. Creating or opening a private project requires Google sign-in, and the sign-in flow carries only a validated return location—not an anonymous creative brief.
Features, Use Cases, Prompts, Guides, comparisons, sizes, pricing, and Help pages can be explored without sign-in. Opening Home, Projects, Assets, Brands, Activity, or a project enters the private product surface.
Google authenticates the account
Retake requests basic OpenID identity scopes for name, email, and profile. Google handles the account credentials and consent screen; your Google password is never shared with Retake Design.
Return paths are validated
After sign-in, you return to a supported Retake page such as Home or a selected Result Skill. External destinations are rejected. Your creative brief is not sent through Google sign-in.
Session state updates public navigation
When the public site and product share the same origin, the Header checks the current Session. Signed-in visitors see their workspace action instead of another Sign in prompt. Signing out returns the Header to its anonymous state.
Prompt pages are public learning resources. Sign-in is required only when you open the private workspace or create a project.
Does Retake carry my unfinished brief through Google sign-in?
No. The OAuth flow carries a validated return location, not anonymous creative input.
Cookie choices
Your cookie choices
Necessary cookies and similar storage keep sign-in, security, and private workspace recovery working. Retake uses Google Analytics Consent Mode for basic website and product measurement; you can separately allow analytics storage and Google One Tap.
Choosing necessary only keeps analytics and advertising storage denied. Google Analytics can still receive cookieless measurement signals, but Retake does not send prompts, files, project identifiers, or card details.
