Cookie Policy

1. What a cookie is

A cookie is a small text file a website stores on your device through your browser. It can hold session information, remember a preference, or track visitors across sites.

2. What this site uses

This marketing site (frontier.legal) sets no marketing cookies, no tracking cookies, and no third-party advertising cookies. It currently sets no cookies at all. If that changes, every cookie will be listed here by name and purpose.

The application (app.frontier.legal) sets two strictly necessary cookies. Both belong to the application domain only and are not used on this marketing site.

fl_session: the authentication cookie that keeps you signed in. Scripts in the browser cannot read it (HttpOnly), it is sent over HTTPS only, and it expires after fourteen days. Without it you cannot sign in.

fl_csrf: the cookie that protects against cross-site request forgery. The application’s interface reads it and echoes it as a header on every write, so it is deliberately readable by scripts. Its lifetime is also fourteen days.

Both are strictly necessary: they are what signing in requires, and neither follows you across sites. That is why no consent is asked for them. Signing out deletes both.

3. Measurement

To understand whether the pages work, we use cookieless measurement. It stores nothing on your device, assigns you no identifier, and does not follow you across sites.

It records aggregate facts only: how often a page was viewed, which country a visit came from, and which address referred you. None of it can be tied back to one person.

4. Why there is no consent banner

Consent is required where information is stored on your device or accessed from it. Neither happens on this site, so there is nothing here that requires consent.

Showing a banner we do not need would suggest we set tracking cookies we do not set. The honest version is to write down what we actually do.

The moment we add any script that stores an identifier, that changes and a consent mechanism becomes mandatory. If it does, this page is updated.

5. Blocking cookies anyway

You can block all cookies or delete existing ones in your browser settings. This marketing site sets none, so reading it is unaffected.

The application is different: block the two strictly necessary cookies above and you cannot sign in or use it. That is how signing in works, not a preference we could offer differently.
