1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site recognize your device and store information about your preferences or past actions.
2. How Filestor Uses Cookies
Filestor uses cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:
Essential Cookies: These are required for the platform to function. They include session cookies that maintain your authentication state, the active-organization selection, and CSRF protection tokens. These cookies cannot be disabled without breaking core functionality.
Preference Cookies: These store your UI preferences such as theme (light / dark / Win11 variants) and explorer sidebar state. They improve your experience but are not strictly necessary.
Analytics Cookies: We may use analytics cookies to understand how users interact with the platform — which pages are visited, which features are used, and where users encounter errors. This data is aggregated and anonymized.
3. Cookies We Set
Session Cookie (Better Auth): Identifies your authenticated session. Expires when you log out or after the session timeout period. This cookie is HTTP-only and Secure.
Active Organization Cookie: Tracks the organization you're working in so you don't need to re-select it on each visit.
Theme Preference: A local-only cookie or localStorage entry that remembers your selected theme across visits.
4. Third-Party Cookies
Google OAuth: If you sign in with Google, Google may set cookies during the authentication flow. These are governed by Google's privacy policy.
Cloudflare: Our CDN, DNS, and tunnel provider may set cookies for security and performance purposes, including bot detection and edge routing. The Cloudflare Tunnel handoff used for direct agent downloads passes through Cloudflare's edge but does not introduce additional Filestor-set cookies on the customer's tunnel hostname.
5. Managing Cookies
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. However, blocking essential cookies will prevent you from using Filestor.
To manage your cookie preferences for Filestor specifically, visit the Consent Preferences page.
