Cookie Policy
Last updated: 27 June 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how TradeWren uses cookies and similar technologies on api.tradewren.com. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy. We keep our use of cookies to a minimum and do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies, such as local storage, work in much the same way. They let a site remember your actions and preferences (such as staying signed in) so you do not have to set them up again each time.
2. How we use cookies
We only use cookies and local storage that are strictly necessary to run the Service or that improve your experience. Specifically, we use them to keep you securely signed in, to protect against cross-site request forgery, and to remember preferences such as your light or dark theme. We do not use them to track you across other websites or to serve advertising.
3. The cookies we use
| Purpose | Type | Retention |
|---|---|---|
| Authentication / session — keeps you securely signed in | Strictly necessary | Session or up to the sign-in period |
| Security — protects against cross-site request forgery and abuse | Strictly necessary | Session |
| Preferences — remembers settings such as your theme | Functional | Persistent (until cleared) |
4. Third-party cookies
When you make a payment, our payment providers (such as Stripe and PayPal) may set their own cookies on their checkout pages to process the transaction securely and prevent fraud. These are governed by those providers’ own cookie and privacy policies. We do not embed third-party advertising or analytics trackers.
5. Managing cookies
Strictly necessary cookies are required for the Service to work and, under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), do not require consent. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings, and you can clear local storage at any time — but please note that blocking strictly necessary cookies will stop you from being able to sign in or use core features. Where we ever use a non-essential cookie, we will ask for your consent first.
6. Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy as our use of cookies changes. When we do, we will update the "last updated" date above.
