Cookie Notice
We set two cookies, both strictly necessary to keep you signed in. We do not use cookies for advertising or tracking.

The short version
We use two cookies. Both exist to keep you signed in securely. We do not set advertising cookies, we do not use third-party analytics or tracking pixels, and we do not sell or share browsing data.
Because both cookies are strictly necessary to provide a service you have asked for, we do not show a consent banner for them. If we ever add non-essential cookies, we will ask for consent first.
The cookies we set
- tt_access — your short-lived session token, used to authenticate each request. Expires after 15 minutes by default.
- tt_refresh — used only to obtain a new session token when the first expires, so you are not signed out mid-task. Expires after 30 days by default, and is scoped so the browser sends it only to the token-refresh endpoint.
How they are protected
- Both are httpOnly, so JavaScript running in the page cannot read them. This limits the damage a cross-site scripting flaw could do.
- Both are marked Secure in production, so they are only ever sent over HTTPS.
- Both use SameSite=Lax, which stops them being sent on cross-site requests and mitigates cross-site request forgery.
- By default no Domain attribute is set, which binds them to the exact host that issued them rather than sharing them across subdomains.
- Refresh tokens rotate on each use. If an old one is replayed, we treat it as a compromise and revoke the session.
Controlling cookies
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Because ours are strictly necessary, blocking them will prevent you from signing in — the platform cannot function without them.
We do not set cookies at all on the public marketing pages until you sign in.
