Cookie Policy
Last updated: March 2026
The short version: We use the absolute minimum --- a CSRF security token, a session cookie, and a language preference. No tracking. No ads. No third-party cookies.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website. They are used to make websites work efficiently and provide information to site operators. "Similar technologies" include browser storage mechanisms like sessionStorage and localStorage.
Essential Cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary for the Platform to function and cannot be disabled.
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| _csrf | Prevents cross-site request forgery attacks | Session |
| session | Maintains your authenticated login session | Session |
Preference Cookies
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| lang | Stores your selected language (en, es, ru, de) | 1 year |
Browser Storage (sessionStorage)
| Key | Purpose | Behavior |
|---|---|---|
| access_token | JWT token for authenticating API requests | Cleared when tab closes |
sessionStorage data is isolated to a single tab, never sent to the server automatically, and deleted when the tab closes.
What We Do NOT Use
Managing Cookies
You can control cookies through your browser settings. However, disabling essential cookies will prevent login and form submissions.
Since we only use strictly necessary cookies, most privacy frameworks (including GDPR's ePrivacy Directive) do not require consent for them. If we introduce non-essential cookies in the future, we will implement a consent mechanism first.
