Cookie Policy

Last updated: February 26, 2026

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We also use similar technologies (for example local storage and session storage) to remember your choices, protect sessions, and improve reliability and performance.

2. Legal Basis

• Strictly necessary cookies: processed under legitimate interest and service necessity to provide requested features securely.
• Analytics and marketing cookies: processed only after your explicit consent.
• Legal compliance records: minimal consent metadata may be processed to demonstrate compliance obligations when required.

Refusing non-essential cookies does not block access to core features such as account access and saved content management.

3. Categories We Use

Strictly Necessary

• Authentication cookie (`authToken`): keeps logged-in sessions secure and supports authenticated requests.
• Consent preference storage: stores your cookie choices and consent timestamp.
• Security and anti-abuse storage: supports fraud prevention, abuse mitigation and operational security controls.

Analytics (Optional)

• Google Analytics: aggregated usage statistics and traffic analysis.
• Hotjar: behavior analytics and heatmaps for UX improvements.
• Vercel Analytics / Speed Insights: performance and reliability measurements.

Marketing (Optional)

• Google AdSense: ad delivery and ad personalization features, only after marketing consent.

4. How Consent Works

• Non-essential scripts are blocked until you opt in.
• Optional categories are off by default when no prior decision exists.
• You can choose separate consent for analytics and marketing.
• You can refuse optional cookies from the first banner level via Only necessary.
• You can withdraw consent at any time from the footer using Cookie Settings.
• Consent may be requested again after 180 days or after relevant policy/version updates.
• Changes take effect prospectively and may require page reload for third-party tags.

5. Data Retention

• Authentication cookie: up to 7 days depending on session lifecycle and security controls.
• Consent preference: stored until you update or clear it.
• Consent metadata: limited metadata (version, timestamp, source) retained for auditability.
• Third-party retention: managed by each provider according to their policies.

6. Browser-Based Cookie Management

You can also manage cookies from your browser settings. Blocking all cookies may impact optional features and saved preferences:

• Google Chrome
• Safari
• Mozilla Firefox
• Microsoft Edge

7. Main Trackers and Storage Keys

The table below lists the main trackers/storage keys configured at the time of this update. Third-party providers may update technical identifiers over time.
