The short version
Socratopia uses exactly one cookie, and it is essential: it keeps you signed in. We use no advertising cookies, no third-party trackers and no cross-site profiling.
The cookies we use
| Cookie | Purpose | Type | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
| soc_session | Keeps you signed in to your account | Essential (HTTP-only, same-site) | 30 days, or until you sign out |
The session cookie is HTTP-only and marked secure in production, so it cannot be read by scripts and is never sent over plain HTTP. Its value is an opaque token; your password never touches a cookie.
Local storage (not cookies)
A few conveniences, like your place in the interactive reader, are stored in your browser’s local storage on this device only. This data never leaves your browser and is not used to track you.
Controlling cookies
Your browser lets you view, block or delete cookies at any time. Blocking the essential cookie simply means you will stay signed out; the catalogue remains fully readable.
