Just the essentials
Izobeat uses only what it needs to work. There’s no advertising, analytics or social-media tracking.

What we use
| Name | Kind | Purpose | Lifespan |
|---|---|---|---|
| izb_sid | Cookie (first-party, essential) | Keeps you signed in and protects forms against forgery. Created only when you sign in or open a page with a form (contact, sign in, sign up, forgot password). | Until you close the browser |
| izb_age | Local storage | Remembers that you said you’re 18 or over in this browser. | Until you clear site data |
| izb_notice | Local storage | Remembers that you closed the cookie notice. | Until you clear site data |
| izb_under | Session storage | Remembers that you said you’re under 18, so the age check stays closed in that tab. | Until the tab closes |
| izb_start | Session storage | Records when your visit started, for the clock and the hourly reminder. | Until the tab closes |
These are needed for the site to work as described, so there’s no switch to turn them off; the banner is just a notice. You can clear them in your browser settings whenever you like, and you’ll simply be asked your age again.
