Cookie policy

This site sets one cookie, and only after you sign in. There is no advertising cookie, no analytics cookie and no third-party cookie of any kind. This page is the complete inventory.

The complete list

NameKindPurposeLifetime
__cds_sessionCookie — strictly necessaryKeeps you signed in. Set when you sign in, and only then. It is httpOnly, so no script on the page can read it, and it is sent only to this site.Until it expires or you sign out
cds-themelocalStorage — preferenceRemembers whether you chose light, dark, sepia, high contrast or system, so the right one paints before the page appears.Until you clear your browser storage
cds-cookie-choicelocalStorage — preferenceRemembers that you dismissed the cookie notice, so it is not shown again.Until you clear your browser storage

That is everything. The two localStorage entries are not cookies — they are never transmitted anywhere, they are readable only by this site, and they hold a preference rather than an identifier. They are listed because a policy that only mentions cookies while a site stores things by other means is a policy written to be technically true.

What we do not set

  • No advertising or retargeting cookies.
  • No analytics cookies — no Google Analytics, no product analytics script, no session recorder.
  • No third-party cookies. No social embeds, no chat widget, no tracking pixel. Nothing on these pages loads from a third party that could set one.
  • No fingerprinting, and no attempt to identify you before you sign in.

Why there is no “reject” button

Consent rules exist for storage that is not necessary to provide the service you asked for. The session cookie is exactly that necessary storage: without it, signing in cannot work at all, so there is nothing meaningful to decline — declining it is signing out. The two preferences are set only because you chose a theme or dismissed a notice.

So the notice at the bottom of the page has one button. It says “I have read this”, not “I agree to be tracked”, because there is no tracking to agree to. A notice offering a reject button that changed nothing would be theatre.

Getting rid of them

  • The session cookie: sign out, or clear cookies for this site in your browser. You will be signed out and asked to sign in again.
  • The preferences: clear site data for this site in your browser. The theme returns to following your operating system and the cookie notice appears once more.
  • Everything, everywhere: every browser has a setting to block or clear storage per site. Blocking it here costs you the ability to stay signed in and nothing else — the marketing pages, including this one, work perfectly with storage blocked entirely.

Self-hosted instances

If you run Docxoft yourself, the same three entries are what the software uses, and it adds nothing else. Anything more on your instance came from you.

Changes

If this ever stops being true — a new cookie, a new storage key — the table above is updated in the same change that adds it, the date at the top moves, and the notice is shown again so you are told rather than left to notice.
