Cookie Policy

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your preferences and understand how you use it.

2. Cookies we use

CookiePurposeDuration
next-auth.session-tokenKeeps you logged in30 days
next-auth.csrf-tokenSecurity - prevents cross-site request forgerySession
next-auth.callback-urlRedirects you after loginSession

3. Essential cookies only

We only use cookies that are strictly necessary for the platform to function. We do not use advertising cookies, tracking cookies, or third-party analytics cookies.

We do measure how the service is used, but that measurement is collected by our own servers rather than a third-party script, and it sets no cookies and stores nothing on your device.

4. Local storage

We use browser local storage to remember UI preferences (e.g. whether you have seen the swipe onboarding tooltip). This data stays on your device and is not sent to our servers.

5. Managing cookies

You can clear cookies through your browser settings. Note that clearing the session cookie will log you out. Since we only use essential cookies, there is no cookie consent banner - these cookies are required for the service to work.
