1. What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file stored on your device by your browser. We also use related storage (localStorage, sessionStorage) — for the purposes of this policy and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), we treat these the same way.
2. Cookie categories
- Strictly necessary — required to deliver the service (authentication session, CSRF protection, consent preference). Always on; no consent required under PECR.
- Preference — remember your UI choices (e.g. selected product tab, dark mode).
- Analytics — anonymous aggregated usage measurement. Off until you opt in.
3. Cookies we set
sb-access-token/sb-refresh-token— strictly necessary, authentication.easyqms.cookie-consent— strictly necessary, stores your consent choice for 12 months.easyqms.product— preference, remembers your last-viewed product tab.
4. Managing your preferences
You can change or withdraw your consent at any time by clearing the easyqms.cookie-consent entry from your browser storage, which will re-trigger the consent banner. You can also block cookies entirely in your browser settings; strictly-necessary cookies cannot be disabled without breaking the platform.
5. Third-party cookies
We do not currently set third-party advertising cookies. If we add an analytics provider in the future, it will be listed here and will only run after you opt in.
