1. About this policy
This Cookie Policy explains how Aerobase Innovations AB uses cookies and similar storage technologies in the Phases web application. It should be read with our Privacy Policy.
A cookie is a small text value a website asks your browser to store and return with later requests. Local storage is kept by your browser for the same site but is not automatically sent with every request.
2. Our necessary-only approach
Phases does not currently load advertising cookies, cross-site tracking pixels, or optional behavioural-analytics cookies. The storage listed below supports a service you request or a necessary security, preference, or continuity function. Because there is no optional cookie category to enable, our short notice is informational and its Got it button records only that you have seen the notice—it is not used as consent.
If we introduce non-essential cookies in the future, we will update this policy and provide a choice before they are set where required by law.
4. Similar browser storage
| Key or pattern | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
theme | Remembers your light, dark, or system appearance preference. | Until you change it or clear site data. |
durable-workflow-cursor:<workflow-id> | Stores the workflow identifier, schema version, and last applied event sequence so the browser can safely reconnect a long-running workflow without skipping events. | Until you clear site data; the server still verifies ownership and remains the source of truth. |
phases:cookie-notice:v1 | Remembers that this informational cookie notice was dismissed. | Until the notice version changes or you clear site data. |
These values do not contain chat text, simulation inputs, material chemistry, uploaded files, passwords, or result artifacts.
5. Authentication-provider cookies
If you choose Google or GitHub sign-in, that provider may set or read cookies on its own domain to authenticate you, prevent fraud, and remember its own settings. Aerobase does not control those third-party cookies. Review the provider's cookie and privacy information and use email-and-password sign-in if you do not want to use a social provider.
6. Your browser controls
You can inspect, delete, or block site data in your browser settings. Blocking or deleting authentication storage will sign you out and can prevent guest chat and protected features from working. Clearing preference storage resets the theme, reconnect cursor, and cookie notice. Server-side chats, runs, and artifacts are not deleted when browser storage is cleared; use the product's deletion controls or contact us for those requests.
7. Changes and contact
We will update this policy and the date above when our use of cookies or similar storage changes materially. Questions can be sent to support@aerobase.se.
