Cookies Policy — CatMind.ai

01

Who we are and what this Policy covers

This Cookies & Similar Technologies Policy (the “Cookie Policy”) explains how CatMind.ai (“CatMind”, “we”, “us” or “our”) uses cookies, local storage and related technologies when you visit or use the CatMind website, account, dashboards and analysis services (together, the “Platform”).

Controller / Operator: Latysocles Studio (The Netherlands) Zegenstraat 42, 3082 XV Rotterdam, The Netherlands Chamber of Commerce (KvK): 42070626 support@catmind.ai

This Cookie Policy should be read with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service. Acknowledging this Policy is not the same as consenting to optional technologies.

02

Current implementation

CatMind currently operates without non-essential trackers

The current Platform does not deploy analytics cookies, advertising cookies, remarketing pixels, social-media tracking pixels or third-party marketing SDKs. It does not currently initialise Google Analytics, Google Ads, Meta Pixel, PostHog or comparable non-essential tracking technology.

CatMind currently uses first-party local browser storage for a theme preference and, after you log in, authentication information needed to access your account. The detailed table below reflects the current Frontend implementation.

If no cookie consent banner is displayed, CatMind operates using essential or user-requested browser storage only. We will not activate non-essential analytics or marketing technologies in a region requiring prior consent until an appropriate consent mechanism is available and you opt in.

03

What cookies and similar technologies are

Cookies are small text files stored by a website in your browser. A first-party cookie is set by the website you visit; a third-party cookie is set by another provider whose service is included on that website. Session cookies normally disappear when the browser closes, while persistent cookies remain until their expiry or deletion.

Local storage lets a website save small pieces of information in the browser without automatically sending them with every network request. Session storage is similar but is normally limited to the current browser tab or session.

Pixels, tags, device identifiers and JavaScript SDKs can also read or write information or report interactions. In this Policy, “cookies” may refer collectively to cookies and similar technologies unless a distinction is necessary.

05

Current first-party browser storage

The following entries are used by the current CatMind Frontend. They are local-storage entries, not traditional HTTP cookies.

Name	Category	Purpose	Typical duration	Control
`catmind-theme`	Preference	Remembers the light or dark theme selected by the user.	Until changed or browser storage is cleared.	Theme control or browser settings.
`access_token`	Strictly necessary	Authenticates requests after login and enables access to the user's account.	The token is configured to expire after approximately 60 minutes; the stored entry is removed on logout, invalidation or clearing browser storage.	Log out or clear site data. Blocking it prevents signed-in use.
`token_type`	Strictly necessary	Stores the authentication scheme associated with the access token.	Until logout, invalidation or clearing browser storage.	Log out or clear site data. Blocking it may prevent signed-in use.
`catmind_referral_attribution_v1`	User-requested referral attribution	Remembers the referral code used to open registration so it can be submitted with the new account.	Up to 30 days, or removed after completed registration.	Clear site data. Removing it before registration removes referral attribution.
`catmind_referral_device_v1`	Fraud prevention	Provides a random first-party browser identifier. The referral service stores only a one-way pseudonymous hash and uses matches as human-review signals, never as an automatic rejection.	Until browser storage is cleared.	Clear site data. A new random value may be created if referral registration is used again.

The web server or future production infrastructure may use short-lived, strictly necessary technologies for security, load balancing, fraud prevention or request routing. If a material technology is introduced, this table or the available consent interface will be updated.

06

Your choice

Consent for non-essential technologies

Where consent is required — including for many analytics, marketing and cross-site tracking technologies in the EEA — we will request a freely given, specific, informed and affirmative choice before the technology is loaded or accesses your device.

Registration, continued browsing, silence, inactivity or acceptance of the Terms and Privacy Policy does not constitute consent to optional cookies. Refusing optional cookies will not prevent access to the basic Platform, although a feature that genuinely depends on a separately requested optional technology may remain unavailable.

If optional categories are introduced, the interface will provide an option to reject them and a way to withdraw consent as easily as it was given. Withdrawal will apply to future use and does not affect earlier lawful processing.

07

Third-party technologies and embedded content

The current CatMind Frontend does not deploy third-party analytics or marketing trackers. External links do not by themselves allow the linked website to store information through CatMind, but the external website may apply its own policy after you choose to visit it.

If CatMind later embeds video players, payment tools, support widgets, maps, social content or other third-party services that access device information, we will identify relevant providers, purposes, categories and controls. Where required, such content will remain blocked until you consent or actively request the feature.

Data collected through a permitted third-party technology may be processed outside the EEA. Relevant international-transfer safeguards are described in the Privacy Policy.

08

How to control or delete browser storage

Use CatMind controlsUse the theme button to change your saved theme and Log out to remove stored authentication entries.

Use browser settingsMost browsers let you inspect, block or delete cookies and site data for one website or for all websites.

Private browsingPrivate or incognito windows normally remove local site data when the private session closes, subject to browser behaviour.

Future preference centreIf optional technologies are introduced, a cookie-preference link or banner will provide category-level controls where required.

Deleting access_token or token_type will sign you out. Blocking necessary storage may prevent login and other account functions. Deleting catmind-theme returns the interface to its default theme.

09

Browser privacy signals

Browsers may send signals such as “Do Not Track” or Global Privacy Control. Because CatMind currently does not deploy behavioural advertising or cross-context tracking technologies, there is currently no advertising profile to disable through such a signal.

If applicable law requires recognition of a browser-based opt-out signal for processing introduced in the future, we will implement and describe the relevant response.

10

Storage duration and updates

The exact duration for each current entry appears in the storage table. Persistent local storage can remain after the browser closes and has no automatic expiry unless the application or browser removes it. Authentication tokens become unusable after their server-defined expiry even if an expired string remains in browser storage.

We review this Policy when the Platform's storage technologies change. We may update names, providers, durations and purposes to reflect technical or legal developments. Material changes will be highlighted or otherwise notified where required, and the effective date will be updated.
