1. Introduction
Havnwright LTD uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our platform at havnwright.com. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and your choices regarding cookies.
This policy complies with UK GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR).
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help:
- Remember your preferences and settings
- Keep you logged into your account
- Understand how you use our platform
- Improve your experience
Types of Cookies
- Session Cookies: Temporary, deleted when you close your browser
- Persistent Cookies: Remain until expiry or manual deletion

3. Cookies We Use
3.1 Essential Cookies (Always Active)
Required for core functionality. Cannot be disabled.

| CSRF token cookie | Cross-site request forgery protection on browser-authenticated mutations. | Session |
We also store your cookie preference in your browser's local storage under the key havnwright_cookie_consent. This is not a cookie, but functions similarly: it remembers your choice so the consent banner does not reappear on every visit. See section 5 for more on local storage.

5. Local Storage
In addition to cookies, we use your browser's local storage for a small number of specific purposes. Unlike cookies, local storage values are never sent back to our servers automatically: they stay on your device and we read them only when the relevant page is open.
havnwright_cookie_consent: remembers whether you accepted all cookies or only essential ones, so the consent banner does not reappear on every page load. Value is eitheracceptedoressential_only.- Cached application data for faster page loads (queries, settings, draft form contents).
Local storage data remains on your device until you clear your browser data or manually remove it.
6. Third-Party Cookies
Some features may set third-party cookies:
6.1 Supabase (Authentication)
Our authentication provider sets cookies to manage your login session.
6.2 Embedded Content
If we embed videos (YouTube) or other content, those platforms may set their own cookies. We use privacy-enhanced mode where available.
7. Do Not Track
We respect your Cookie Consent Banner choices. While there's no universal "Do Not Track" standard, rejecting analytics cookies will prevent tracking.
8. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in our practices. When we do:
- We'll update the "Last Updated" date
