Cookie / Storage Notice

<h1>Cookie / Storage Notice</h1>

<p>Last updated: April 4, 2026</p>

<p>
This Cookie / Storage Notice explains how GetHug uses cookies and similar technologies,
including limited browser-based storage, when you access or use our website and workflows.
This notice is intended to explain what these technologies are, why we use them, and the choices
you may have in relation to them.
</p>

<p>
This notice covers storage or access on your device or browser. It does not fully describe how
we process personal data on our servers, including account information, uploaded files, temporary
workflow data, saved scripts, saved graph projects, saved graph recipes, or generated output files.
For that information, please see our <a href="/privacy.php">Privacy Policy</a>.
</p>

<h2>1. What we use</h2>

<p>
Based on our current site configuration, GetHug uses cookies and similar technologies only for
essential site operation, security, and user-requested functionality. We do not currently use
advertising cookies or marketing trackers. We do not currently use analytics cookies that are not
strictly necessary for the service, unless and until this notice is updated accordingly.
</p>

<h2>2. Types of cookies and similar technologies we use</h2>

<h3>a. Essential session cookies</h3>
<p>
We use session cookies to keep users authenticated after login, maintain secure sessions across
pages, and support core account and workflow functionality. These cookies are necessary for the
service requested by the user, such as logging in, remaining signed in while navigating the site,
and accessing account-restricted pages.
</p>

<h3>b. Security-related storage</h3>
<p>
We may use cookies or similar session mechanisms for security purposes, including session integrity,
request validation, protection against forged requests, abuse prevention, and related account or
workflow security controls.
</p>

<h3>c. Browser storage used for workflow continuity</h3>
<p>
Where needed for requested functionality, GetHug uses browser storage such as localStorage or
sessionStorage to preserve limited workflow state across page reloads or navigation. Depending on
the workflow, this may include temporary identifiers, editor state, session references, or other
limited data needed to resume an in-progress graph or Python workflow.
</p>

<p>
We do not use browser storage under this notice to serve targeted advertising or cross-site
marketing profiles.
</p>

<h2>3. Why we use them</h2>

<p>We use these technologies only where reasonably necessary to:</p>
<ul>
  <li>authenticate users and maintain login sessions;</li>
  <li>protect accounts, forms, and workflow actions against misuse or unauthorized requests;</li>
  <li>keep requested workflows functioning correctly across reloads or navigation;</li>
  <li>support delivery of the specific service requested by the user.</li>
</ul>

<h2>4. How long they remain</h2>

<p>
Some cookies used by GetHug are session cookies, which expire automatically when your browser session
ends or after a limited session period. Other browser-side storage may remain until it is deleted,
replaced, or no longer needed by the relevant workflow. Where possible, we limit browser-side data
to what is reasonably necessary for security and requested functionality.
</p>

<h2>5. Managing cookies and browser storage</h2>

<p>
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through browser settings. You may also be able to clear
localStorage or sessionStorage through your browser settings or developer tools. Please note that if you
disable or clear essential cookies or related browser storage, some parts of GetHug may not function
properly. For example, login, authenticated sessions, and workflow continuity may be interrupted.
</p>

<h2>6. Changes to this notice</h2>

<p>
We may update this Cookie / Storage Notice from time to time to reflect changes in our service,
security practices, or legal obligations. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date at the
top of this page.
