Cookie Policy
What cookies we use and why. Short version: we only use the ones we absolutely need.
Last updated:
A cookie is a small text file stored on your device when you visit a website. ConneqtOS uses only essential cookies by default, these are required for the Service to work. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.
Cookies we use
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
next-auth.session-token | Keeps you signed in. Contains an encrypted JWT with your user ID and session expiry. | 30 days | Essential |
next-auth.csrf-token | Protects against CSRF attacks on the login form. | Session | Essential |
next-auth.callback-url | Redirects you back where you came from after logging in. | Session | Essential |
conneqt-cookie-consent | Remembers your cookie preferences so we don't keep asking. | 1 year | Essential |
sidebar-collapsed | Your sidebar open/collapsed preference (client-side localStorage, not a server cookie). | Persistent | Functional |
Why these are essential
Under GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive, "strictly necessary" cookies don't require consent, only non-essential (analytics, marketing) cookies do. All the cookies above are strictly necessary because without them:
- You couldn't stay signed in between page loads
- You couldn't submit forms safely (CSRF protection)
- We couldn't remember your consent preferences
What we don't do
- No advertising cookies. We don't sell ads.
- No third-party tracking (no Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, etc.)
- No cross-site tracking or profiling
- No cookies set by our subprocessors on our pages (Stripe sets its own cookies only on their checkout pages)
If we add analytics later
If we introduce optional analytics (e.g. privacy-preserving tools like Plausible), we will update this policy, show an opt-in banner, and only set non-essential cookies after you give explicit consent.
Managing cookies
You can clear all cookies from your browser settings. Note that doing so will log you out and clear your preferences. Essential cookies are re-created the next time you use the Service (they're required for it to work).
