Cookie Policy

Version 2026-10-20 · Effective 20 October 2026

In short: the Hub uses no analytics, advertising or social-media tracking. It sets one essential cookie so your browser can load members' photos and files you're allowed to see, and stores a few essential items in local storage so you stay signed in and your settings are remembered.

1. What we store on your device

“Cookies” here includes similar technologies such as local storage. Everything the Hub stores is first-party (set by the Hub itself) and essential:

Name	Type	Purpose	Duration	Category
`hub_files`	Cookie (HTTP-only, sent only to `/uploads`, same-site only)	Proves you're signed in when your browser loads an uploaded photo, video or document, so files can be checked against who may see them. Not readable by page scripts and never sent to other sites.	Until you sign out, or 7 days	Essential
`hub_token`	Local storage	Your sign-in token — keeps you logged in and authorises your requests	Until you log out; the token itself expires after 7 days	Essential
`user`	Local storage	Your account id, name and status, so pages can show who's signed in	Until you log out or clear storage	Essential
`tmed_theme`	Local storage	Remembers the light/dark theme you picked (only set when you use the toggle)	Until you clear storage	Essential (feature you asked for)
`tmed_policy_notice_dismissed`	Session storage	Remembers that you chose “Later” on the Terms/Privacy review notice	Until you close the tab	Essential (feature you asked for)
`tmed_consent`	Local storage	Remembers your cookie choices (version, date, choices — no identifiers)	Until you clear storage; we ask again if this policy changes	Essential

Your browser also keeps its normal cache of pages, images and fonts; the Hub doesn't use this to identify you.

2. Third parties

The Hub loads no third-party scripts, fonts, icons, analytics, advertising or tracking pixels — fonts and icons are served from our own server. Two things can still contact other websites:

Link previews: if a member's post links to another site, your browser loads that preview image from the linked site, which may set its own cookies under its own policy.
Links you click (LinkedIn, job application pages, etc.) take you to other sites with their own cookie policies.

3. Optional cookies and consent

There are currently no optional cookies or tracking, so there's nothing to accept or reject and we don't show a cookie banner. If we ever add optional technologies (for example analytics), they will stay switched off until you choose “Accept” in a banner offering equally easy “Accept all”, “Reject optional” and “Customize” options, this page will list them, and you'll be able to change your mind at any time from “Cookie settings” in the footer.

4. Managing storage

Logging out ends your session on our server and removes your sign-in token and the hub_files cookie. You can also clear site data in your browser settings at any time — you'll simply need to sign in again. Essential storage can't be disabled within the Hub because sign-in depends on it.
