Cookie Policy
Effective date: 22 September 2026
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored by your browser. This policy also covers local storage and IndexedDB, which store data on your device in a similar way. We use these technologies sparingly — only what is needed to make the Service work and to measure usage anonymously.
2. Cookies and Storage We Use
| Name / Purpose | Duration | Description | Category |
|---|---|---|---|
| access_token | Session (7 days) | Authentication — keeps you signed in | Required |
| arcloop-auth | Persistent (localStorage) | Login state shared across tabs and sessions | Required |
| theme | Persistent (localStorage) | Light / dark appearance preference | Functional |
| arcloop-markup | IndexedDB (local) | Drawing annotation and markup snapshots | Functional |
| Analytics (first-party reverse-proxied) | 1 year | Usage measurement via our own domain. No third-party tracking cookies, no advertising trackers. | Analytics (consent) |
| Affiliate Google Analytics (optional) | Until consent withdrawn | Campaign measurement when you join an affiliated organisation and opt in via the affiliation flag. | Analytics (optional consent) |
3. Analytics Cookies
Our analytics is served through our own domain via a reverse proxy and carries a strict 1-year retention cap. It does not use _ph_* or advertising cookies, and it never tracks you across other websites. Analytics runs only after you accept the cookie banner; strictly required storage is never blocked.
If you opt in to an affiliated organisation, a separate, optional Google Analytics tag may measure campaign performance. You can revoke this at any time by clearing your settings or emailing contact@arcloop.tech.
4. Managing Cookies
- You can delete or block cookies in your browser settings. Strictly required storage (authentication) cannot be disabled without losing access to protected areas.
- You can clear the theme and analytics preferences at any time from your browser's site-data settings.
- Opting out of analytics does not affect your ability to use the Service.
5. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy when the Service changes. The current version is always available at this page. This policy is in draft while the business registers and may change without prior notice.
