Last updated: February 18, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Stand 8 ("Stand8," "we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on stand8.ai and its subdomains.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember your preferences and enable various features. Similar technologies include localStorage (browser-based storage) and analytics scripts.
2. Cookies We Use
2.1 Essential Cookies (Required)
These cookies are necessary for the Site to function and cannot be disabled.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
next-auth.session-token | Authentication session for logged-in users | Session / 30 days |
next-auth.callback-url | Stores redirect URL during authentication flow | Session |
next-auth.csrf-token | Cross-site request forgery protection | Session |
sb-*-auth-token | Supabase authentication session | 1 hour / refresh |
cookie_consent | Stores your cookie consent preference | 1 year |
2.2 Analytics Cookies (Optional)
These cookies help us understand how visitors use our Site. They are only set if you accept analytics cookies.
| Cookie / Script | Provider | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Vercel Analytics | Vercel | Page view tracking, performance metrics (Core Web Vitals), and general usage analytics. No personal identifiers are stored. |
3. Browser Local Storage
We also use browser localStorage for the following purposes. Note that Supabase stores authentication state in both cookies and localStorage for session continuity.
| Key | Purpose |

sb-*-auth-token | Supabase client-side authentication state |
cookie_consent / cookie_consent_ts | Stores your cookie consent preference and the timestamp it was set |
theme | Stores your theme preference (dark/light mode) |
4. Third-Party Cookies
We do not use third-party advertising cookies or tracking pixels. Our third-party integrations (Supabase, Vercel) set only the cookies listed above.
5. Managing Cookies
You can manage cookies through:
- Our consent banner — when you first visit the Site, you can choose "Accept All" or "Essential Only." Essential Only disables analytics cookies.
- Your browser settings — most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Note that blocking essential cookies may prevent parts of the Site from functioning correctly.
