Cookie Policy
BogdansLab uses only what it needs to work — the cookies that keep you signed in. No analytics, no advertising, no tracking, no third-party cookies. This page covers bogdanslab.com; a Specimen that keeps something else in your browser says so on its own page (Specimen pages).
The cookies
| Cookie | What it does | How long |
|---|---|---|
sb-…-auth-token (sometimes split into .0, .1) | Keeps you signed in — on bogdanslab.com and its subdomains, so one sign-in works across the lab. Your browser's scripts can't read it. | Up to 400 days, renewed while you use the lab; removed when you sign out |
sb-…-auth-token-code-verifier | Only while you sign in with Google: links the start and the end of the sign-in | A few minutes |
They're set by BogdansLab itself (first-party) and sent only to BogdansLab's own sites. The lab's pages keep nothing in your browser's local storage.
The bot check on the sign-in page
The sign-in page uses Cloudflare Turnstile to tell people from bots, usually without you noticing. It runs only on that page, sees your network address and browser details for the check, and isn't used to track you or for advertising (Cloudflare's Turnstile privacy addendum). It protects a service you asked for — signing in.
No banner
These cookies are strictly necessary for a service you asked for — signing in — so the law doesn't require asking for consent (Romanian Law 506/2004, art. 4(6); EU ePrivacy Directive, Art. 5(3)). If we ever add a cookie that isn't strictly necessary, we'll ask you first, with a clear choice.
Fonts and images
The fonts are served by BogdansLab itself, so your browser doesn't contact Google or any other font service. Images come from our own storage.
Controlling cookies
You can delete cookies in your browser's settings at any time; you'll simply be signed out. More about your data: the Privacy Policy.
