Cookie policy
Booking Desks uses only what is strictly needed to work: no advertising, no analytics, no cross-site tracking. That is why you do not see a cookie banner.

1. What cookies and browser storage are
Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser. Local storage and service workers are similar browser features that let a web app remember settings and work quickly, including when it is installed on your home screen.
Under the Slovak Electronic Communications Act (Act No. 452/2021 Coll.) and the EU ePrivacy Directive, storage that is strictly necessary to provide a service you asked for does not require consent. Everything we use falls into that category.
2. What we use
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| better-auth.session_token (with a __Secure- prefix on HTTPS) | Cookie, first party, HTTP-only | Keeps you signed in to your workspace. Set only on your organisation's own address. | Up to 30 days, renewed while you use the app; removed when you sign out |
| Sign-in state cookies (better-auth.state and similar) | Cookie, first party, HTTP-only | Protect a Google or Microsoft sign-in against forgery while it is in progress | A few minutes |
| theme | Local storage | Remembers whether you chose light or dark mode | Until you clear it |
| weather.facilityId | Local storage | Remembers which of your organisation's locations you chose to see the weather for | Until you clear it |
| dashboard.preferencesCta.dismissed | Local storage | Remembers that you dismissed a tip on the dashboard | Until you clear it |
| Service worker (sw.js) | Browser service worker | Lets the app be installed on your home screen and receive push notifications you turned on | Until you uninstall the app or clear site data |
Push notifications are only used after you allow them in your browser. You can turn them off in the app's account settings or in your browser at any time.
3. Third parties
We do not load advertising, social media or analytics scripts. When you choose to sign in with Google or Microsoft, you are briefly taken to their site, where their own cookie policies apply.
4. How to control them
You can delete cookies and site data in your browser settings at any time. If you delete the session cookie you will be signed out; the app will not work if you block it entirely.
5. Changes
If we ever add storage that is not strictly necessary, such as analytics, we will ask for your consent first and update this page.
