1. How the choice works
On the first visit, optional cookies are blocked. You can accept, reject, or customise. Accept and reject are available at the same layer, and refusal does not reduce access to public pages or features that do not require authentication.
The choice is kept locally for no more than 180 days in localStorage, not a cookie. This record is strictly necessary to honour your choice and contains only the version, decision, and update/expiry times.
2. Technologies used
On localhost, Convex cookies may appear without the __Host- prefix. Authentication cookies are HttpOnly, Secure in production, and SameSite=Lax, so page scripts cannot read them.
| Name | Purpose | Duration / category |
|---|---|---|
| __Host-__convexAuthJWT | Keeps the authenticated session and authorises account requests | Session · strictly necessary |
| __Host-__convexAuthRefreshToken | Securely renews the authenticated session | Session · strictly necessary |
| __Host-__convexAuthOAuthVerifier | Temporarily protects the external sign-in flow | OAuth flow only · strictly necessary |
| academiva_cookie_consent_v1 (localStorage) | Locally remembers and evidences the cookie choice | Up to 180 days · strictly necessary |
| academiva.billing.pending-checkout.v1 (sessionStorage) | Safely resumes a user-initiated payment after returning from Stripe | Up to 24 hours or until the tab closes · strictly necessary |
| sidebar_state | Remembers sidebar state on the device | Up to 7 days · preferences, only after consent |
3. What we do not use
We currently install no analytics, profiling, advertising, or remarketing cookies and load no Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, Hotjar, or similar tags. If this changes, we update this policy and request consent before loading them.
4. External services
When you choose Google sign-in, open Stripe Checkout/Portal, or follow the support link to PayPal, you navigate to the provider's domain. It may use its own cookies for security, authentication, and payment under its policy. ACADEMIVA cannot delete cookies on that domain and does not load the PayPal SDK or send requests to PayPal before your action.
5. Withdrawal and control
Use the permanent “Cookie settings” button in the page corner to change your choice. On withdrawal, ACADEMIVA immediately deletes known optional cookies on this domain. You can also clear site data in browser settings; the banner will then appear again.
