1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember information about your visit, such as whether you are logged in.
We also use similar technologies such as localStorage for session state management within the platform app.
2. Cookies We Use
OQN uses a minimal set of cookies, focused on keeping the platform functional. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies.
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |

oqn_session | Strictly necessary | Maintains your login session | Session (cleared on browser close) |
oqn_remember | Strictly necessary | Keeps you logged in if you select “Remember me” | 30 days |
oqn_consent | Strictly necessary | Records your cookie consent choice | 1 year |

3. Strictly Necessary Cookies
Strictly necessary cookies are required for the platform to function. Under PECR, these do not require your consent. You cannot opt out of strictly necessary cookies while using OQN, but you can clear them at any time in your browser settings — this will log you out.

If you consent, we use analytics cookies to understand how users navigate the platform (e.g. which pages are visited most, where errors occur). This data is aggregated and anonymised — we cannot identify you from it.
You can withdraw analytics consent at any time via your account settings or the cookie banner.
