This page explains how Artsorbit uses cookies and browser local storage, what each one does, and how you can manage your preferences.
Cookies are small text files stored in your browser when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember information about your visit, such as whether you are logged in. Artsorbit also uses local storage — a similar browser mechanism that stores data without an expiry date — for lightweight, non-sensitive preferences.
These cookies are required for the platform to function. You cannot opt out of them while using Artsorbit.
