Cookie Notice
This notice lists every cookie browseo.app sets. The public pages (home, features, pricing, download and the legal pages) set no cookies. Cookies appear only when you sign in to your account.
In short
- No analytics cookies, no advertising cookies and no third-party cookies.
- The cookies below are strictly necessary to keep you signed in, so they are set without a consent banner.
- They are HttpOnly, SameSite=Lax and, on browseo.app, Secure with the __Host- prefix.
The cookies
These are the names used on browseo.app. They are set only after you sign in, or when you start Google sign-in.
| Cookie | What it is for | Set when | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
__Host-bw_rt | Keeps you signed in (refresh token). | You sign in. | 30 days, or until you sign out. |
__Host-bw_at | Proves your sign-in to the account pages (access token). | You sign in, and each time the session renews. | About 9 minutes; renewed while you use the account. |
__Host-bw_did | Random identifier of this browser, so your session is tied to the device you signed in on and appears in your device list. | You sign in. | 400 days; it stays after you sign out. |
__Host-bw_gf | Protects the Google sign-in round trip (state, PKCE verifier, nonce). | You start Google sign-in. | 10 minutes. |
__Host-bw_rr | Stops a session renewal from repeating when two requests race. | Rarely, when two requests renew the session at once. | 10 seconds. |
Other browser storage
The site does not use localStorage, sessionStorage or IndexedDB. The Browseo desktop app is not a website: it stores its data in files on your computer, as described in the privacy policy.
Controlling cookies
Signing out removes the sign-in cookies. You can also delete them in your browser settings; you will then have to sign in again. If we ever add analytics or other optional cookies, we will ask for your consent first and update this notice.
