Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how ScholarBits (operated by the Foresight Institute of Research and Translation) uses cookies and similar storage technologies on scholarbits.com.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website. They allow the site to remember information about your visit, such as your login state. Similar technologies include local storage and session storage, which are used in your browser without sending data to a server.

2. Our Cookie Commitment

ScholarBits is built on a “No tracking. No account. Paste in, get out.” philosophy. We use no advertising, analytics, or tracking cookies. We use only the cookies strictly necessary to operate the Service.

3. Cookies We Use

No third-party cookies are set by ScholarBits. Third-party services (such as Google Sign-In during the OAuth flow) may set their own cookies on their own domains — those are governed by their respective privacy policies.

4. Cookie Types Explained

• Essential cookies — Required for the Service to function. The site cannot operate correctly without them. You cannot opt out of essential cookies while using the Service.
• Functional cookies — Enhance your experience by remembering preferences (e.g., dark mode). They are not required for core functionality.

5. Managing Cookies

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Note that blocking essential cookies will prevent sign-in functionality from working. Functional cookies (like theme preference) can be cleared without affecting core tool usage.

If you use ScholarBits without an account, no session cookies are set at all.

6. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy if we add new features that involve cookies. The “Last updated” date will reflect any changes.
