Cookie Policy
DoroSync uses only cookies that are strictly necessary to run the application. None of them track you across sites, and none belong to a third party, which is why we do not show a cookie consent banner: there is nothing optional to consent to.

Browser storage
The application also uses your browser's local storage for small conveniences that never leave your device: which announcements you dismissed, whether you declined the "add to home screen" offer, and when you were last asked about phone notifications.
When a phone has no connection, daily records and most day-to-day entries you save are kept in the browser's storage (IndexedDB) on that device, and sent to DoroSync when the connection returns. Once accepted they are removed from the device. A record the service refuses stays on the device and is shown to you, so it is never lost silently. Signing out deletes entries not yet sent, so the application warns you first if any are waiting.
A service worker keeps the application's own code, an offline page, and copies of pages you have opened, so the application opens quickly and can show them without a connection. They stay on your device, and signing out clears them.
Managing cookies
You can delete cookies in your browser settings at any time. Deleting the session cookie signs you out; deleting the others resets your preferences to the organization's defaults.
