Privacy

Updated February 8, 2024

This document describes how Demarchy stores and manages your data.

Analytics

Demarchy does not collect analytics and therefore cannot share analytics data with third parties.

Cookies

Demarchy uses HTTP cookies only when necessary to the core user experience.

HTTP cookies (also called web cookies, Internet cookies, browser cookies, or simply cookies) are small blocks of data created by a web server while a user is browsing a website and placed on the user's computer or other device by the user's web browser.

__session

The __session cookie is used by Demarchy servers to keep users authenticated throughout the duration of their visit and expires after 5 days.

voucher_limiter

The voucher_limiter cookie is used by Demarchy servers to prevent too many requests from affecting services.

Web Storage

Demarchy uses the Web Storage API to save simple preferences and manage session privacy notices.

Web storage, sometimes known as DOM storage (Document Object Model storage), is a standard JavaScript API provided by web browsers. It enables websites to store persistent data on users' devices similar to cookies, but with much larger capacity and no information sent in HTTP headers.

cookie-ack

The cookie-ack value saved in session storage persists your acknowledgement of Demarchy's privacy notice every session per GDPR in Europe and CCPA in California.

theme

The theme value saved in local storage persists your color theme preference on your device.

Demarchy is committed to transparency and ethical software design. Share your experience with support.
