## Summary

The technical cookies and local storage this website uses, and how to control them.

## Work

This policy sets out the cookies and equivalent local storage used on this website, pursuant to the ePrivacy rules (art. 5(3) of Directive 2002/58/EC) and the cookie guidelines issued by the Italian Garante on 10 June 2021.

## Summary

This website uses solely technical cookies and equivalent local storage, strictly necessary to deliver the service and to maintain authenticated sessions in the Members area.

## Cookies and storage used

**Public archive (liminalfutures.com).** The public pages are served entirely from the Association's own domain, fonts included. The browser and the hosting provider may retain ordinary, short-lived technical entries necessary to serve pages and to defend against abuse.

**Members area (following authentication).** The Members area is a private application. In order to authenticate the user and maintain the session, it stores strictly necessary items in the browser (authentication tokens and a limited amount of local and session storage, such as the interface theme preference and the current authentication step). These items exist solely to operate the application.

**Third-party services, invoked only where required:**

- **Authentication** — the authentication provider sets strictly necessary items to operate passwordless email codes and passkeys.
- **Payments** — where the dues and billing flow is opened, the payment provider operates on its own pages and sets its own strictly necessary and fraud-prevention cookies therein.
- **Bot protection** — a privacy-preserving challenge may be run to block automated abuse.
- **Embedded video** — where a page embeds a video, the embed loads only upon the user's request to play.

## Managing cookies

All items are strictly necessary to the functions they support. Cookies and site data may be cleared or blocked through the browser settings; blocking the Members-area items will prevent authentication.

## Further information

The processing of personal data generally is described in the privacy notice at /privacy.
