Cookies.
The web kind, not the food kind. Here’s every one we set, and why.

What are cookies
Cookies are tiny text files a site can leave in your browser to remember something small — like whether you’re signed in. They aren’t programs, they can’t steal your files, and they can’t do anything you don’t let them do.
What we use them for
Three things and nothing else: keeping you logged in, remembering your app preferences, and counting anonymous page views so we know what people actually read. We don’t use cookies to build advertising profiles or follow you around the web.
The full list
Every cookie we currently set:
Third parties
The only third party that runs cookies through us is Vercel Analytics for anonymous page-view counting. No ad networks, no social pixels, no session recording. If we ever add another one, we’ll list it here first.
How to opt out
You can block or clear cookies in your browser settings. If you block session cookies you won’t be able to sign in — the app can’t work without those. Blocking the analytics one is fine and won’t break anything.
