Cookie & Browser Storage Notice

Updated 26 October 2026. Cookies are small values stored by a browser. Websites can also use local storage, session storage and similar technologies. This notice covers those technologies on Lāsker Publishing.

What we currently use

Necessary reader authentication. Supabase authentication is configured to persist a reader's sign-in session in browser storage, typically local storage. This helps you remain signed in and use your assigned ARC books. The precise storage key and duration can depend on the authentication configuration, token refresh and when you sign out.

Security and bot prevention. Cloudflare Turnstile runs on protected forms such as sign-in, ARC requests and Reader Club registration. Its challenge may access security-related browser information and, depending on the challenge, may use cookies or comparable storage. The service is intended to prevent automated abuse.

Website infrastructure. Vercel and other hosting/network providers may process technical request information for routing, security and service reliability. Temporary browser or infrastructure state can vary with the page and provider configuration.

Reading preferences and activity. Reading progress, entitlement validity and review records are stored primarily in Lāsker's database rather than in an advertising cookie. Browser memory or local settings may support the reading experience.

Advertising and analytics

In an anonymous inspection of our homepage, login and Reader Club pages on 26 October 2026, we did not observe Google Analytics, advertising pixels or non-essential advertising trackers. We do not currently offer an advertising-cookie choice because we have not identified such trackers in that inspection. If we add optional analytics or advertising technology, we will reassess consent and provide any required controls before activating it.

What you can control

You can sign out to end an active application session, and you can clear cookies and website storage using your browser's privacy settings. Clearing authentication storage may sign you out and require another email verification. Blocking necessary security features may stop forms or private reading from working.

When consent is required

We aim to use only storage needed to deliver requested functionality and protect the website. Rules differ by location, and some optional technologies require prior consent. This notice does not assert that every third-party technology is always exempt in every jurisdiction.
