01What is a cookie
A cookie is a small text file a website stores in your browser to remember information between visits. Similar technologies — localStorage, sessionStorage, IndexedDB — are covered by this notice too.
02Categories we use
We use only strictly necessary and functional storage. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.
- Strictly necessary — keep the site secure and functional. No consent required.
- Functional — remember preferences (e.g. locale). We treat these as opt-in via the locale switcher itself.
- Analytics — Plausible Analytics, which is cookieless and aggregated. No consent required under most jurisdictions, but you can opt out below.
03Detailed list
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| lens-locale | Remember your chosen region/language so root URLs route correctly. | 1 year | Functional |
| lens.locale (localStorage) | Mirror of the locale cookie for client-side routing. | Until cleared | Functional |
| __cf_bm | Cloudflare bot management — set on every visit. | 30 minutes | Strictly necessary |
| plausible_ignore | If you opt out of analytics, we set this to ignore future page views. | 1 year | Functional (opt-in) |
04How to refuse
You can clear or block cookies in your browser settings — most browsers expose this under Privacy & Security. Doing so will reset preferences (e.g. region) but will not break the site.
To opt out of analytics specifically, visit plausible.io/lenscorp.ai/opt-out — it sets a single cookie that tells our analytics to ignore you.
05Changes
If we add a new cookie we update this list within 5 working days and bump the effective date.
