Cookie Policy
Last updated: March 21, 2026
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your web browser when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function properly, improve user experience, and provide information to site operators.
2. How We Use Cookies
Mnemosyne uses a minimal number of cookies. We believe in collecting only what is strictly necessary for the Service to function.
3. Cookies We Use
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
auth.token | Stores your OAuth2 access token so you remain authenticated between page loads and visits. This cookie is essential for the Service to function. | Strictly necessary | Until revoked |
auth.refresh | Stores your OAuth2 refresh token, used to obtain a new access token when the current one expires. This cookie is essential for maintaining your session. | Strictly necessary | Until revoked |
4. Analytics Without Cookies
We use Umami for website analytics. Umami is a privacy-focused analytics tool that does not use cookies, does not track users across websites, and does not collect personally identifiable information. All analytics data is anonymous and aggregated.
5. Third-Party Cookies
We do not use any third-party cookies. We do not embed third-party advertising, social media widgets, or other external services that would set their own cookies.
6. Managing Cookies
Since we only use strictly necessary cookies for authentication, disabling them will prevent you from logging in and using the Service. You can manage cookies through your browser settings:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Cookies and site data
7. Do We Need a Cookie Consent Banner?
Under the GDPR and ePrivacy Directive, strictly necessary cookies (those required for the service to function) are exempt from the consent requirement. Since our cookies are limited to essential authentication tokens, we are not required to show a cookie consent banner. However, we believe in transparency, which is why this policy exists.
8. Changes to This Policy
If we introduce additional cookies in the future (for example, preference or functionality cookies), we will update this policy and implement appropriate consent mechanisms where required.
