What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. We also use similar technologies such as local storage where needed for the Chrome extension or dashboard.
Cookies we use
We use cookies for the following purposes:
- Essential authentication: session cookies that keep you signed in to your ClassGrade Pilot account (for example, via NextAuth after Google sign-in).
- Security: cookies or tokens that help prevent cross-site request forgery and protect your account.
- Preferences: optional settings you choose in the dashboard or extension.
- Analytics: if enabled in the future, we will use analytics cookies to understand aggregate usage. We will update this policy before enabling non-essential analytics.
Third-party cookies
When you sign in with Google, Google may set cookies according to its own policies.
When you subscribe to Pro, Polar may use cookies or similar technologies during checkout according to Polar's policies.
Managing cookies
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking essential cookies may prevent you from signing in or using the dashboard.
The Chrome extension uses extension storage APIs for settings and authentication state separate from ordinary website cookies.
