COOKIE_POLICY
Last updated: 2026-04-21
OVERVIEW
We use a small, deliberately-minimal set of cookies and browser storage entries. We do not set advertising cookies, and we do not embed third-party trackers that build cross-site profiles.
This Policy is supplemental to our Privacy Policy.
STRICTLY_NECESSARY
These are required for the Service to operate. They do not require consent under GDPR/ePrivacy rules.
- uhub_age_ok (localStorage, ~1 year) — records that you confirmed you are an adult. Without it, we would show the age gate on every page load.
- Session cookies (HTTP-only, session-scoped) — issued only when you sign in as an admin or agent via SSO. Anonymous browsing does not receive a session cookie.
- CSRF tokens — set when you submit a protected form, used to prevent cross-site request forgery, and discarded when you leave the page.
PREFERENCE_STORAGE
Also strictly necessary for the features you opt into. We treat these as functional storage.
- nuqs query strings — catalog filters are reflected in the URL. Nothing is written to cookies; bookmarks and share links carry the state.
- UI preferences (localStorage) — small flags such as collapsed/expanded sidebar state, set only by your actions in the UI.
ANALYTICS
If and when analytics are enabled, we intend to use a privacy-preserving, cookieless provider (for example, Plausible or a comparable service) that measures aggregate page views without identifying individual users and without setting tracking cookies.
If we later adopt analytics that do set cookies or process personal data in a way requiring consent, we will request consent via a banner before any such cookie is set, and this Policy will be updated to list the specific provider, cookie names, and retention.
THIRD_PARTY_EMBEDS
When we embed third-party media (for example, images hosted on CivitAI CDN before our own previews are generated), the third-party host may receive your IP address and user-agent as part of the image request. We do not share additional data with those hosts.
MANAGE_YOUR_CHOICES
You can clear cookies and localStorage at any time through your browser settings. Clearing uhub_age_ok will make the age gate reappear on your next visit.
Most browsers also allow blocking cookies for specific sites; if you block strictly-necessary storage, parts of the Service may not function as expected.
