Most cookie pages list forty-six tracking tags. Ours lists a handful of first-party bits of state that keep you signed in and the app working — plus one optional analytics tag you control.
A cookie is a small piece of text your browser stores. Every time you visit Klauski.lt, your browser hands it back so we know it's still you. That's the whole technology.
There are two kinds. First-party cookies are set by the site you're actually on — that's us. Third-party cookies are set by other companies (ad networks, analytics shops) loaded inside that site.
We use first-party cookies for the app itself. The one third-party tag — Google Analytics — loads in denied-consent mode; its cookies only appear if you opt in.
There are also similar technologies — localStorage, sessionStorage, fingerprinting — covered further down, because under EU law they count as cookies even when they aren't.
All three are strictly necessary under EU ePrivacy rules — we don't need to ask permission to set them, because the app literally would not work without them.
A signed token that says "this browser is logged in as you." Set when you sign in, cleared when you sign out. Lasts 7 days otherwise.

A random per-browser identifier so a question's open-count doesn't tick every time you refresh. Hashed before it touches the database. Not linked to your account.

Once you submit an answer to a question, this cookie lets the page know you've already replied — so it shows the thank-you screen instead of the form. One per question you answer.

Tracks whether you accepted measurement cookies. Without it we'd show you the consent banner on every visit.

You can inspect these yourself any time — open DevTools, Application tab, Cookies. There won't be a hidden fifth one.
No Meta pixel. No Google Ads tag. No TikTok pixel. No Reddit, Twitter, LinkedIn, or Pinterest tags.
No Mixpanel, no Amplitude, no Hotjar. The only analytics tag — Google Analytics — runs in denied-consent mode until you opt in, and is listed below.
No canvas tricks, no font enumeration, no audio context probing. We don't try to identify you without a cookie.
Your visit here never gets matched to your profile somewhere else. There's no pipe for it to travel down.
Google Analytics loads with consent set to denied so Google can receive cookieless consent and usage signals for aggregate modeling. If you grant measurement consent, it sets its own cookies (the ones below) and reports page views plus basic product events back to Google. You can switch this off any time.
Google Analytics uses this to count unique sessions in aggregate. 2 years.

Holds the current GA4 session so pageviews group correctly. 2 years.

These Google Analytics cookies are not set unless you've granted measurement consent in the banner or settings. The events we send are basic funnel actions — signup, question creation, share/copy actions, answer submission, and ask-your-own-friends clicks — without question text, answer text, names, emails, share tokens, or full URLs.
The three first-party cookies are strictly necessary — blocking them is the same as blocking the site. Measurement is yours to toggle.
Reopen the consent banner to switch measurement on or off. Your choice sticks until you change it.
Settings → Privacy → Cookies. Most browsers let you block by site, so you can keep cookies elsewhere and refuse them just here.
Clear cookies for klauski.lt in your browser and you'll be signed out, your prefs reset. Nothing else of yours is touched.
Private windows drop our cookies the moment you close them. Great for using Klauski.lt on a borrowed laptop.
EU regulators bundle a few related technologies under "cookies." Here's what we use in each bucket, with the same brevity.
If we ever add a new bucket — say, push notification tokens — we'll list it here before the change goes live.
If a cookie shows up in your DevTools that isn't on this page, please tell us. We mean it — we'd want to know.
No mystery tags. No hidden trackers. Just a few honest cookies and a place to ask your people.
