Storage used for the service
| Storage / provider | Purpose | Duration and control |
|---|---|---|
| Neon Auth session cookies, including session_token and local.session_data (secure prefixes may apply) | Authenticate your account and validate/cache the session. Essential for signed-in functions. | The session cookie expires at the expiry issued by Neon Auth; the local cache lasts up to five minutes and is refreshed during use. Sign out to end access on this device. Browser site-data controls show each cookie’s expiry and can remove it. |
| idearove-purchase-draft (session storage) | Keep your current research form in this tab while you sign in/pay. The legacy key name does not send information to the old domain. | Cleared after a successful run; drafts older than 24 hours are discarded on page load. Also cleared when the browser ends the tab session. |
| idearove-example-v2 (session storage) | Keep edits to the Startup example in this tab. | Until the tab session ends or you clear site data. |
| idearove-business-enquiry-v1 (session storage) | Return your enquiry fields after sign-in. | Removed when restored/submitted or the tab session ends; drafts older than one hour are not restored. |
Other unsaved demo inputs may exist only in page memory and disappear on reload. Essential sign-in storage is used for the service you request, not advertising. Blocking it may prevent sign-in or disrupt drafts.
Optional public visitor measurement · updated 9 November 2026
Public pages offer a separate, optional visitor measurement choice. Allowing it creates bd_visits, a secure first-party cookie valid for up to 24 hours; its random identifier resets each UTC day. We record page categories, broad search/social/direct/other referral categories, mobile/desktop screen category and date, without full referrer URLs, query strings, names or account IDs. We respect browser Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control signals.
Your choice is remembered in bd-visitor-consent local storage until you change it or clear site data. Use Visitor privacy preferences in the public-page footer to withdraw: collection stops and records for the current daily identifier are removed. Earlier daily identifiers cannot be linked from that cookie and expire under the 90-day collection/report cleanup. A separate keyed hash of the connection address is used for short-lived abuse limits; raw addresses are not saved in measurement records. Account-linked feature measurement remains separately controlled in Data & preferences.
Optional usage measurement
Your consent preference is held against your account in our database. If you opt in, first-party requests record fixed activity names, your account ID and date. This measurement does not place an advertising identifier in browser storage. It is not enabled just because you sign in, buy a service or accept terms.
Open Data & preferences to enable or withdraw measurement. Turning it off stops future collection and removes your existing application measurement records. The core service remains available.
External services
Stripe’s hosted checkout is opened only when you choose to pay. Stripe controls storage on its checkout domain for payment and fraud prevention; see Stripe’s cookie information. Accounting-provider sign-in happens on the chosen provider’s service. Their own notices apply there.
The application does not include advertising pixels. Our heading font is served locally. Some shared pages also request body fonts from Google Fonts; your browser shares connection information such as its IP address and requested resource with Google. This font request is not our optional product analytics. See Google Fonts privacy information. Providers may still process connection and security information as explained in the privacy notice.
Your choices and questions
You can inspect and clear cookies or tab storage in your browser’s site settings. Clearing storage does not delete server-side workspace records; use Data & preferences for those. Email support@brighterdesk.com about storage or privacy. We will update this page before adding a materially different storage purpose or request any consent required for it.
