Axel Cookie Policy
Effective date: October 4, 2026
This policy explains how Axel uses cookies and similar technologies in Axel. Read it together with our Privacy Policy.
Mobile app
The Axel iOS and Android apps do not use browser cookies or advertising trackers. To work, the app stores the following on your device:
| What | Why | Where |
|---|---|---|
| Sign-in session token | Keeps you signed in | Device secure storage (Keychain / Keystore) |
| Offline copy of your family's data | Lets the app work without a connection and sync later | App storage on your device |
| App preferences (language, text size, elder mode, feature-guide progress) | Remembers your settings | App storage on your device |
Your sign-in token and the offline copy of your family's data are removed when you sign out; everything is removed when you uninstall the app.
Web version and website
If you use Axel in a web browser, or visit axelapp.online:
| Type | Used? | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary (local storage / session storage) | Yes | Keep you signed in and remember preferences. The Service does not work without them, so they do not require consent. |
| Performance / error reporting | Only if error reporting is enabled | Detect crashes and errors (Sentry). No health data is included. |
| Analytics | No | We do not use analytics. We will update this policy and ask for consent before adding any. |
| Advertising / cross-site tracking | No | — |
Our API does not set cookies; the app signs in with a bearer token.
Managing cookies
You can clear or block cookies and site data in your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary storage will sign you out and stop the web version working.
Changes and contact
We will update this page if we add new cookies or trackers — before using any non-essential cookie we will ask for your consent. Questions: privacy@axelapp.online.
