1. The short version
The app uses a few essential cookies to sign you in and keep that sign-in safe. It cannot work without them, so the law does not need us to ask first, and there is no cookie banner. This website, rootpanther.com, sets no cookies at all.
2. Cookies in the app
These are set by app.rootpanther.com and api.rootpanther.com. They can only be sent over an encrypted connection, and the scripts on the page cannot read them.
| Name | What it does | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|
rp_session | Keeps you signed in. It holds a random token, and the details of your session stay on our server. | 30 days, or until you sign out |
rp_pending | Remembers that you have entered your password and still need to enter your two-factor code. | 5 minutes |
rp_oauth | Protects a sign-in with Google, Microsoft or GitHub by holding a one-time check for it. It is signed, so it cannot be changed. | 10 minutes |
3. Settings kept in your browser
The app also remembers a few of your choices in your browser's own storage. They never leave your browser, and you can clear them in your browser settings at any time.
| Name | What it remembers |
|---|---|
rp-theme | Light or dark mode |
rp-sidebar-collapsed | Whether you folded the side menu away |
rp-palette-recent | The last few items you picked in the command palette |
rp-onboarding | Your choices during first setup, until you finish it |
rp-lab-mode | Which workspace view you chose for a lab. It is cleared when you close the tab. |
4. Payments
Checkout runs on a page provided by Stripe, which may set its own cookies there to prevent fraud. Stripe's cookie policy covers them.
