The cookies and browser storage entries our sites use, what each is for, how long it lasts and how to change your choice.
Last updated October 30, 2026.
1. Our approach#
We use as little as we can. Necessary storage is always on. Statistics, fonts and marketing are off until you allow them. You can change your choice at any time with the cookie icon at the bottom left of the page, or with Your privacy choices in the footer.
In plain language: only what the site needs to work is set by default. Analytics runs only if you say yes.
This policy covers agined.com, app.agined.com and the other pages of the Service. See the Privacy Policy for how we handle personal data more generally.
2. What are cookies and browser storage#
A cookie is a small text file a website asks your browser to keep. Browser storage (local storage and session storage) works in a similar way and also keeps small pieces of data on your device. In this policy, "cookies" includes both.
3. Categories#
| Category | Default | What it covers |
|---|
| Necessary | Always on | Keeping you signed in after Avonao ID has signed you in, security, and remembering your cookie choices. Cannot be turned off. |
| Statistics | Off until you allow it | Google Analytics, which measures which pages are visited and how visitors move around. |
| Fonts | Off until you allow it (EU, EEA, Switzerland and UK only); elsewhere loaded directly, with no choice | The typeface of our titles, loaded from Adobe Fonts. Without it, titles use our own font. |
| Marketing | Off |
4. Cookies and storage entries we set#
4.1 Necessary#
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|
av_session | Keeps you signed in to the dashboard. Set after Avonao ID has signed you in; holds a random token, not personal data. | Up to 12 hours (and ends after 30 minutes of inactivity) | Cookie, first party, HttpOnly |
av_avonao_flow | Protects the hand-off to and from Avonao ID against forgery while you sign in. | 10 minutes | Cookie, first party, HttpOnly |
av_dashboard_residency |
4.2 Statistics#
Loaded only after you allow Statistics. Every Google consent signal starts as denied and is updated only when you consent.
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|
_ga | Google Analytics: distinguishes visitors. | Up to 2 years | Cookie, first party, set by Google LLC's script |
_ga_* | Google Analytics 4: keeps session state for our measurement property. | Up to 2 years | Cookie, first party, set by Google LLC's script |
Google LLC acts as our service provider for this purpose. Google Analytics data is kept for 14 months at most. See Sub-processors. If Statistics is switched on but no Google Analytics property is configured for a site, nothing is loaded or measured.
4.3 Fonts#
In the EU, the EEA, Switzerland and the UK, loaded only after you allow Fonts. Elsewhere it loads right away and the settings have no Fonts category. Our titles use the typeface "ivypresto-display" from Adobe Fonts. Your browser then loads a stylesheet and font files from use.typekit.net, and Adobe Inc. receives your IP address and the address of the page. Adobe Fonts sets no cookies and stores nothing on your device. Without your consent, the titles use our own font and no request goes to Adobe for it. See Sub-processors.
4.4 Marketing#
None. We do not use advertising services.
4.5 Avonao ID#
You sign up and sign in through Avonao ID (id.avonao.com), which is a separate site with its own cookie banner and its own cookies. The Service does not set them. Avonao ID uses strictly necessary cookies (for example __Host-avid, which keeps you signed in for up to 90 days and ends after 14 days without use, Cloudflare Turnstile and bot-management cookies, and its own cookie-choice entry). [CONFIRM: Turnstile and bot-management cookie names, the cookie-choice entry, and exact durations from a browser scan of id.avonao.com before launch.]
Avonao ID plans to use free analytics and measurement tools on its websites. None is live today. The rules it has set for itself: tools that use cookies or device storage, and all session recording, run only after you agree in its cookie banner; no analytics or recording tool runs on its sign-in, sign-up, second-factor, recovery, passkey, age or guardian pages; it never puts your Avonao ID identifier, email address, name or IP address into the events it sends; it uses no advertising features, sells no data and shows no ads; and it treats a Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track signal as "no" for optional tools.
| Tool | Provider | Status |
|---|
| Cloudflare Web Analytics (designed cookieless) | Cloudflare | Planned |
Google Analytics 4 (_ga, _ga_<id>, only after consent) | Google | Planned |
| Google Search Console (no script on pages) | Google | Planned |
Microsoft Clarity (_clck, _clsk, only after consent) |
Agined's own measurement on this site is Google Analytics only, as described in section 4.2. [CONFIRM: whether the Service will also adopt any of the other tools above; if so, list each one and its cookies in section 4.2 before it starts.]
5. Changing or withdrawing your choice#
- Open the cookie icon at the bottom left of any page, or Your privacy choices in the footer, and change the categories.
- If you refuse or withdraw Statistics, we delete the Google Analytics cookies on this site.
- If you refuse or withdraw Fonts, the titles switch back to our own font straight away.
- Closing the prompt or the settings without saving is not consent. Only necessary storage stays on, and we ask again on your next visit.
- You can also delete cookies in your browser settings. Doing so signs you out and resets your choices.
6. Global Privacy Control#
A browser that sends the Global Privacy Control signal counts as "Only necessary". Statistics and marketing stay off for that browser unless you switch them on yourself.
7. Other third-party requests#
These are not cookies, but they send your IP address to a third party, so we list them.
- Cloudflare Turnstile runs on the contact and request forms to tell people from bots. Your browser loads a script from challenges.cloudflare.com and Cloudflare receives the signals needed to run the check. It is a security function and is not used for advertising.
- Avonao Billing and Stripe host checkout and the billing portal (Stripe is the merchant of record for payments made through Avonao Billing). When you follow a link to them, you leave our site and their own terms and cookies apply.
- Sign-in with Avonao ID takes you to id.avonao.com, where Avonao ID's own cookies apply (section 4.5). If you connect a third-party account there, that provider's own cookies apply on Avonao ID's pages, not ours.
8. Changes#
If the services behind a category change, we reset stored choices and ask every visitor again. We announce material changes to this policy as described in the Privacy Policy.
