Cookie Policy
Last updated: February 28, 2026
1. What are cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help us provide the Service, remember your preferences, and understand how you use our site. We also use similar technologies such as local storage and session storage where appropriate.
2. Types of cookies we use
Strictly Necessary
These cookies are essential for the website to function and cannot be disabled. They handle authentication, session management, security protections (such as CSRF tokens), and secure sign-in flows including social login (Google, Facebook). Without these, core features like logging in or staying signed in would not work.
Duration: Session-based or up to 7 days depending on your session settings.
Functional
These cookies remember your preferences to enhance your experience. This includes your chosen theme (light, dark, or system), interface layout preferences, your preferred sign-in method, and your cookie consent choices. You can disable these, but your preferences won't be saved between visits.
Duration: Persistent until you clear your browser data.
Analytics
With your consent, we use Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity to understand how visitors interact with our site so we can improve it. These tools may assign a random identifier to distinguish returning visitors, measure sessions, and understand on-page behavior such as clicks, navigation patterns, and engagement with page elements. We do not sell this data, and analytics cookies are only set after you give consent.
Duration: Up to 2 years.
Third-party cookies: We do not use third-party advertising cookies. With your consent, Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity may set cookies as described above — see Google's Privacy Policy and Microsoft's Privacy Statement for details on how those providers process this data. OAuth providers (Google, Facebook) may also set their own cookies during the authentication flow, governed by their respective privacy policies.
3. How long cookies last
Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain for a set period (e.g. until expiry or until you clear them). Authentication-related cookies are used to keep you signed in according to your session settings.
4. Your choices
You have full control over which cookies we use (except strictly necessary ones). You can manage your preferences in several ways:
1. Cookie Preference Center
Change your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the button below:
2. Browser Settings
You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect how the website works (e.g., you may need to sign in again on each visit).
3. Clear All Stored Data
To completely reset all your preferences and stored data, clear your browser's cache and cookies for this site.
For more information about how we use your data, see our Privacy Policy.
5. Updates
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version on this page and update the "Last updated" date. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance.
