1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a website or use a web application. They help the application remember your preferences, understand how you use the service, and improve your experience.

2. Types of Cookies We Use

2.1 Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for ChapterKeep to function properly. They enable core features such as:

• User authentication and session management
• Security features and fraud prevention
• Remembering your login state across sessions
• Storing your theme preference (light/dark mode)

3. Local Storage

In addition to cookies, ChapterKeep uses browser local storage to persist certain data on your device:

• Authentication tokens for keeping you signed in

Local storage functions similarly to cookies but can store larger amounts of data and does not expire automatically.

We do not control third-party cookies. Please refer to the respective privacy policies of these services for more information.

Please note that disabling essential cookies may prevent ChapterKeep from functioning correctly. You may not be able to sign in or use certain features.

6. Do Not Track
