Cookie Policy
Last updated: 2026-07-26
This Cookie Policy explains how SieveGuard ("SieveGuard", "we") uses cookies and similar technologies (such as localStorage) on our public website. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser. Similar technologies like localStorage serve the same purpose — keeping small pieces of information between page loads. We group everything we set into two categories: strictly necessary and analytics.
Strictly necessary
These are required for the site and app to function and are exempt from consent under the ePrivacy rules. They never carry advertising identifiers.
| Name | Purpose | Type | Retention |
|---|---|---|---|
sg_access / sg_refresh | Keep you signed in to the app securely. | localStorage | Until logout / token expiry |
sg_cookie_consent | Remembers your cookie choices so we don't ask again. | localStorage | Persistent (until cleared) |
theme | Remembers your light/dark theme preference. | localStorage | Persistent (until cleared) |
sg_ref | First-touch affiliate attribution when you arrive via a partner link. | localStorage | 60 days |
Analytics
We currently do not load any analytics or tracking tools on this website. Only the strictly-necessary items above are ever stored on your device.
Managing your consent
You can change or withdraw your consent at any time. Use the button below (also available as "Cookie settings" in the footer of every page), or clear cookies in your browser settings. Withdrawing consent stops analytics from loading on your next page view.
