Cookie Policy

Last updated: August 24, 2026

The short version

Nexus8 uses exactly one cookie, and it's strictly necessary for the site to work — not for tracking, advertising, or analytics. Because of that, we don't show a cookie consent banner: under GDPR/ePrivacy rules, strictly necessary cookies don't require consent, only disclosure — which is what this page is.

The one cookie we set

NamePurposeDuration
nexus8_sessionKeeps you signed in. httpOnly (invisible to page scripts) and sent only to nexus8.8bitsecurity.com — never to a third party.7 days, or until you sign out

This cookie is only set once you sign in — browsing anonymously (search, Signal, Radar, entity pages, the API) sets no cookie at all.

What we don't use

  • No advertising or retargeting cookies.
  • No third-party analytics cookies — our analytics (Plausible, self-hosted) is cookie-free by design. It measures aggregate traffic without setting any identifier on your device or tracking you across sites.
  • No cross-site tracking of any kind.

Controlling cookies

Since the only cookie we set is required to keep you signed in, blocking it simply means you'll be treated as signed out. You can clear it any time from your browser's cookie settings, or just use the "Sign out" button in the app.
