Cookies and Local Storage
Our website uses only technically necessary cookies that are essential for operating the platform. A cookie consent banner is therefore not required.
Authentication Cookie
For login and session maintenance, we set an authentication cookie (HttpOnly, Secure, SameSite=Lax). This cookie contains an encrypted token to identify your session — no personal data in plain text.
Session Duration
The duration of your session depends on your choice at login:
- Default (without 'Remember me'): Your session ends when you close the browser.
- With 'Remember me': Your session remains active for up to 30 days or until you manually sign out.
Local Storage
We use your browser's local storage solely for your display preferences (e.g., sidebar state, preferred view). This data does not leave your device and is not transmitted to our servers.
Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (performance of contract). These cookies are technically necessary and exempt from the consent requirement under the ePrivacy Directive.
