Cookie policy
This page explains every piece of data mowlog stores in your browser. It applies to everyone visiting the site, and is written to meet the EU GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive (the "cookie law").
Short version
mowlog itself does not use any tracking, analytics, advertising or profiling cookies. The items the app stores in your browser are strictly necessary to provide the service you asked for (staying signed in and remembering your sidebar layout). The only third-party storage comes from the Featurebase feedback widget, and only after you open it.
What we store, in detail
sb-<project>-auth-token (localStorage)
Purpose: keeps you signed in between page loads and refreshes your session token.
Set by: our authentication provider (first party, same origin as mowlog).
Lifetime: until you sign out or clear site data.
Category: strictly necessary. Without it you'd be signed out on every navigation.
sidebar_state (cookie)
Purpose: remembers whether the in-app sidebar is expanded or collapsed, so the layout stays the way you left it.
Set by: mowlog (first party, same origin). Sent only to mowlog, never to a third party.
Contents: the literal value true or false. No identifier, no tracking value.
Lifetime: 7 days, refreshed each time you toggle the sidebar.
Attributes: SameSite=Lax, and Secure on HTTPS.
Category: strictly necessary (user-interface preference for the signed-in app).
Featurebase widget (third-party script, cookies and storage)
Purpose: powers the "Feedback" widget where you can submit ideas, vote and read replies.
Set by: Featurebase (Hellotree OÜ), loaded from do.featurebase.app. The script is loaded on page load; cookies and storage inside the widget's iframe are set when you open it.
Contents: Featurebase's own session and preference storage inside its iframe, plus a signed token identifying you to Featurebase (your user id, email and handle) so your submissions are attributed to your account.
Lifetime: managed by Featurebase. See featurebase.app/privacy.
Category: functional (product feedback and support). Avoid opening the widget if you do not want Featurebase to set this storage.
What we do NOT use
- No analytics (no Google Analytics, Plausible, PostHog, etc.).
- No advertising or retargeting cookies.
- No third-party social, embed or "share" trackers.
- No session-replay or heatmap tools.
- No cross-site fingerprinting.
The strictly necessary items above do not require consent under Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. The Featurebase widget is a functional integration disclosed here, no advertising or cross-site tracking is involved, so no consent banner is shown.
How to clear it
Sign out from Profile, or clear site data for this domain in your browser settings. Both remove the stored session immediately.
Changes
If we ever add non-essential storage (for example, opt-in analytics), this page will be updated first and a consent prompt will be shown before anything is stored.
