## What we store on your device

Table: Cookies and browser storage used by WharfCloud

| Name | Set by | Purpose | How long |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `sb-*-auth-token` | WharfCloud (authentication) | Keeps you signed in to your panel. Only set when you sign in. | Until you sign out or the session expires |
| `__stripe_mid`, `__stripe_sid` | Stripe | Fraud prevention during payment. Only on pages that take a payment. | Up to 1 year and 30 minutes respectively |
| `wc-theme` (local storage, not a cookie) | WharfCloud | Remembers whether you chose the light or dark theme. | Until you clear it |

These are strictly necessary for the service you ask for, which is why UK law (the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations) does not require consent for them. If we ever add anything that is not strictly necessary, such as analytics, we will ask for your consent first and update this page.

## Controlling cookies

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. If you block the authentication cookie you will not be able to sign in, and payments may fail without Stripe's fraud prevention cookies.
