What cookies are
Cookies are small files a website stores in your browser so it can remember something between pages or visits, such as the fact that you are signed in. Local storage does the same job in a slightly different way. In this notice, “cookies” means both.
The cookies we use
Zenboard uses only strictly necessary cookies: the site cannot work without them, so they do not need your consent.
| Name | Type | What it does | How long |
|---|---|---|---|
| sb-…-auth-token | Cookie | Keeps you signed in to Zenboard and your session secure. | Until you sign out, or up to a year |
| zb-consent | Cookie | Remembers your cookie choice, so we do not ask again on every visit. | 1 year |
| zb-theme | Local storage | Remembers whether you chose the light or the dark theme. | Until you clear it |
Optional cookies
We do not use analytics or marketing cookies today. If we start, they will stay off unless you allow them, this notice will list them, and you will be able to change your mind at any time.

- Marketing. Would help us measure whether our advertising works.
Your choices
- Change your choice at any time in , which is also at the foot of every page.
- If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as declining every optional cookie.

For how we handle personal information more generally, see our privacy notice.
