Cookie Policy

What we set, why, and how long it lives. Short list — we don't run an ad network.

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files stored in your browser by the sites you visit. They let services remember things between page loads — most importantly, that you're signed in.

How we use them

We use three categories. Only the first is on by default.

  • Essential cookiesare required to deliver the Service. Sign-in, CSRF protection, 2FA, bot protection. You can't turn these off and still use EXERAX.
  • Analytics cookieswould help us understand aggregate product usage. We currently don't set any — we use server-side Grafana metrics instead.
  • Marketing cookieswould help us measure ad performance. We currently don't set any. We don't run paid ads.

If we ever add analytics or marketing cookies, we'll prompt you to consent and you'll be able to change your mind from this page.
