Cookie policy

Updated 18 October 2026

Essential preferences

The local storage key thirdkind-privacy-v2 records your analytics choice on this browser until you change it or clear browser storage. The session key thirdkind-request-sent can record a successful support submission until its status page is opened or the tab session ends; it stores no message or email address.

Account sessions and checkout

When accounts are enabled, the essential __Host-tk_session cookie keeps you signed in on that device for up to 7 days. It uses Secure, HttpOnly and SameSite=Lax attributes and contains a random token, not your email or payment details. Signing out removes that device session. Cloudflare Turnstile and Razorpay may use security storage when you use their verification and checkout services. Essential account functions are separate from optional analytics consent.

Optional analytics

Analytics are currently unconfigured. A valid Google Analytics configuration and your acceptance are both required before the script is loaded. Accept and Reject are presented equally. Rejection does not affect website access. Cookie settings in the footer lets you change or withdraw your choice.

Withdrawal

Withdrawing disables analytics events and attempts to clear accessible Google Analytics cookies for this site. Browser controls can clear remaining cookies and local storage. Withdrawal cannot erase data already sent to an analytics provider.

Spam protection and hosting

Cloudflare Turnstile loads on interaction with an enabled support form. Hosting and access infrastructure may use security mechanisms independently of optional analytics. These services must be reviewed and their production configuration disclosed before support submissions open.

Storage unavailable

If your browser blocks local storage, your choice is kept only for the current page session. You can use the site without accepting optional analytics.
