What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They let a site remember your preferences, keep you signed in, and — only with your permission — measure how the site is used.
Cookies we use
Strictly necessary
These are required for the site to work and cannot be switched off. They do not track you across other sites.
cookie_consent— remembers your cookie choice so we do not ask again. Lasts 180 days.- Session / authentication — keeps you securely signed in to your account.
locale— remembers your language preference (English or 中文).- Sidebar / layout state — remembers small interface preferences such as whether the navigation is expanded.
Analytics (only with your consent)
These help us understand which pages are used so we can improve the product. They run only after you accept in the cookie banner, and never before.
- Google Analytics — aggregate, pseudonymous usage statistics (pages viewed, approximate location, device type).
- Plausible — privacy-friendly, aggregate visit statistics.
You can decline analytics and the site will still work fully.
Managing your choice
You can accept or decline analytics cookies in the banner shown on your first visit. To change your decision later, clear the cookie_consent cookie in your browser settings and reload the page — the banner will appear again. You can also block or delete cookies entirely in your browser settings, though strictly-necessary cookies are needed to stay signed in.
Changes
We may update this Cookie Policy as the product evolves. The "last updated" date above reflects the latest version.
