This page lists every cookie and similar technology Pinard uses. Almost all of them are strictly necessary: they sign you in, keep the Service secure and remember a choice you made. One is optional, and is set only if you choose Accept in the cookie banner. We do not use analytics, advertising or tracking cookies.
When you first visit, a banner offers Accept and Reject, side by side. Rejecting turns nothing off: the pricing page simply checks your browser again on each visit. You can change your choice at any time from Cookie settings at the foot of every page. We ask again after six months.
| Name | Purpose | How long |
|---|---|---|
| sb-…-auth-token (sometimes split into .0 and .1) | Keeps you signed in. Set by our sign-in provider, Supabase. | Until you sign out, or up to 400 days, renewed as you use Pinard |
| pinard_gate | Remembers that you entered the access code while Pinard is in its private pilot | 30 days |
| pinard_consent | Remembers whether you chose Accept or Reject in the cookie banner, so it does not ask on every page | 6 months |
| Name | Purpose | How long |
|---|---|---|
| pinard_price_check | Remembers whether your browser's time zone and language agree with your country, so the pricing page shows the right price without checking again on your next visit. A yes or no, signed so it cannot be altered. Without it, the same check runs on each visit and again when you go to checkout. | 30 days |
| Name | Purpose | How long |
|---|---|---|
| pinard-theme (local storage) | Remembers whether you chose the light or dark theme | Until you clear it, or change the theme |
| pinard-diagnostic (local storage) | Remembers your place in a diagnostic you have started, so you can carry on where you left off. Holds question numbers and how far you got, not your answers | Until you finish the diagnostic, or 14 days |
When you pay, you leave Pinard for Stripe's checkout and billing pages at checkout.stripe.com and billing.stripe.com. Stripe sets its own strictly necessary cookies there to process the payment and prevent fraud. See Stripe's cookie policy.
You can delete or block cookies in your browser settings. If you block the sign-in cookie, you will not be able to sign in.
If we ever add another cookie that is not strictly necessary, we will update this page and ask for your consent before setting it.
