Rafter

Cookie Policy

Last updated: 17 October 2026 · Terms of Service · Privacy Policy

Short version: Rafter uses only essential cookies required for authentication and payment. We do not use advertising cookies, analytics trackers, or any form of cross-site tracking.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website. They are widely used to make websites work, remember your preferences, and provide information to site owners. Rafter uses only the cookies necessary to make the service function.

2. Cookies we use

Rafter uses only essential (strictly necessary) cookies. These cannot be disabled without breaking core functionality.

Cookie / storage keySet byPurposeDuration
__session, __client_uat, and related Clerk session keys Clerk (clerk.deepgreensea.au) Maintains your signed-in session. Without these cookies you would need to re-authenticate on every page load. Session / up to 30 days
Stripe session and fraud-prevention tokens Stripe (js.stripe.com) Required for secure payment processing when subscribing to a paid plan. Used by Stripe to detect fraud and authenticate payment sessions. Session / up to 1 year

3. What we do NOT use

Cloudflare, which hosts Rafter, may set technical cookies for network-level security and performance purposes (e.g. bot detection via Turnstile). These are infrastructure-level and do not track your browsing behaviour across other sites. See Cloudflare's privacy policy for details.

4. Managing cookies

Because Rafter uses only essential cookies, a cookie consent banner is not required and is not displayed. Disabling cookies in your browser will prevent Rafter from functioning — specifically, you will not be able to remain signed in.

Most browsers allow you to view and delete cookies via their settings. For instructions, see your browser's help documentation.

5. Changes to this Policy

If we introduce any non-essential cookies in the future, we will update this policy and display an appropriate consent notice before setting those cookies.
