Cookie Policy

f8 Capital uses a short list of cookies and browser storage, all of them necessary to run the site or to remember a choice you made. We set no advertising cookies and no third-party analytics cookies, which is why you are not asked to accept a banner.

Cookies we set

| Name | Set by | Purpose | Lifetime | | --------------------------- | --------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------- | | __session, __client_uat | Our authentication provider | Keeps you signed in and lets the server verify your session. Without them you cannot use the dashboard. | Session, and up to 7 days | | ref | This site | Records the referral code from a ?ref= link so the person who introduced you gets credit. First link wins; it is never overwritten. HTTP-only. | 30 days | | sidebar_state | This site | Remembers whether you collapsed the dashboard sidebar. | 7 days |

Browser storage we use

| Key | Purpose | | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | theme | Your Light / Dark / System choice, so the page renders in the right theme before any script runs. |

Both are stored in your browser's local storage, not sent to us with every request.

Third parties

Pages that embed a video load it from a privacy-enhanced embed domain, which does not set tracking cookies unless you press play. The identity verification flow runs on the provider's own domain and is covered by its own cookie notice; you only reach it when you start verification.

Managing cookies

You can clear or block cookies in your browser's settings. Blocking the authentication cookies will sign you out and prevent the dashboard from loading. Blocking ref or sidebar_state only costs you the referral credit or the remembered layout.
