## Cookies we set

We set **two cookies**:

| Name                     | Purpose                                      | Duration        | Type                |
| ------------------------ | -------------------------------------------- | --------------- | ------------------- |
| `broodnet.session_token` | Authentication session — keeps you logged in | Up to 7 days    | First-party, Secure |
| `broodnet.session_data`  | Short-lived session cache                    | Up to 5 minutes | First-party, Secure |

That's it.

## What we don't use

- No analytics cookies
- No tracking pixels
- No advertising cookies
- No third-party cookies

## Why no cookie banner?

Strictly necessary cookies are exempt from consent requirements under the ePrivacy Directive. Our authentication cookies are strictly necessary — they keep you logged in to Broodnet. Without them, the service cannot function.

We are not legally required to ask for your consent to set these cookies.

## Future changes

If we ever add non-essential cookies (analytics, marketing, etc.), we will update this page and implement a proper consent mechanism as required by law and ethical best practices.
