Cookie Policy

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by websites you visit. They enable core functionality like authentication and security, and can remember your preferences.

We also use similar technologies such as localStorage for certain preferences (e.g., theme), which do not send data back to the server unless you choose to sync.

Cookies We Use

Strictly Necessary (Session)

Required for operating the Site securely and keeping you signed in. These cookies authenticate you and protect against CSRF attacks:

• _maintracker_session: Stores temporary application data like flash messages and CSRF tokens for security.
  Duration: Session (cleared when you close your browser).
• session_id: Maintains your authenticated login session by securely storing a reference to your session record. This cookie controls whether you stay logged in between visits.
  Duration: Up to 20 years (limited by your browser's maximum cookie lifespan and privacy settings).

Preferences (Client-side)

Theme preference is stored in your browser's localStorage to honor light/dark/auto mode. We do not set non-essential preference cookies, and we do not use analytics or advertising cookies.

Managing Cookies

You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling strictly necessary cookies may prevent the Site from functioning (e.g., you may be unable to sign in).
