Cookies and Similar Technologies Policy

This policy explains the use of cookies and similar technologies on the ATHLENIXS® website, their purposes, and how user preferences can be managed.

In its current state, the site is limited to the following:

• Cookies strictly necessary for the login session: created through the Supabase authentication provider only after you sign in, and used to maintain and refresh the session. These are first-party cookies and are not created for a visitor who is not signed in.
• Preferences stored in the browser: your language choice and display mode (light or dark) are stored in the browser's local storage (localStorage) rather than in cookies, and these values are not sent to the server.
• Site performance measurement: Vercel Analytics is used in the production environment only, to measure page visits in aggregate.

The site does not currently use marketing, advertising or cross-site tracking cookies, and contains no third-party advertising tag.

Optional cookies that require consent are not activated before the necessary consent is obtained. If optional categories are added in future, an interface will be provided that allows them to be accepted, rejected or customised, and that allows the preferences panel to be reopened later.

Every external provider that uses files or identifiers is documented in this policy, together with its purpose. The providers currently in use are Supabase, for authentication and database services, and Vercel, for hosting the site and measuring its performance. No new provider is added without updating this policy.

You can delete or block cookies from your browser settings, and clear locally stored preferences from the same settings. Disabling strictly necessary cookies may make signing in impossible, or cause the session to be lost during use.

Where cookies are linked to identifiers or personal data, the processing is governed by the Privacy Policy and the relevant legal requirements.

This policy is reviewed whenever the site's tooling changes or a new provider is added.
