The short version

  • Three cookies, all neededqd_session keeps you signed in, qd_tz dates your downloads, and qd_admin is only for our administrator.
  • None on the public pagesThe public pages set no cookie. Cookies start only when you sign in.
  • No trackingNo analytics, advertising or third-party cookies, which is why there is no banner.

Quinndatum uses only the cookies it needs to work. There are no analytics, advertising or tracking cookies, and no cookie from another company. The public pages set no cookie at all; cookies start only when you sign in.

01The cookies

NameWhat it holds, and whyHow longWho gets it
qd_sessionA random token that keeps you signed in. We store only a hash of it. Without it you cannot stay signed in.30 days, or until you sign outSet when you sign in or create an account. Sent only over HTTPS and only to quinndatum.com; page scripts cannot read it.
qd_tzYour browser's time-zone name, for example America/Toronto, so the files you download are dated in your time. Nothing else. The app works without it (dates are then in UTC).1 yearSet by the app after you sign in. Sent only to the app's own addresses (/api/v1/app).
qd_adminOur administrator's sign-in to our own admin page. Customers never receive it.12 hoursOnly our administrator. Sent only over HTTPS and only to the admin's addresses; page scripts cannot read it.

02Choices kept in your browser

The app also remembers a few display choices in your browser's own storage: light or dark theme (qd-theme), whether the side menu is wide (qd-rail), the site you last opened (qd-site), table columns and bars (qd-pe-cols, qd-bars), and whether you finished the tour (qd_tour). These stay on your device and are never sent to us. Clearing your browser's site data removes them.

03Other services your browser contacts
