This page explains the cookies and similar browser-storage technologies used on club.creative-kay.com, why we use them, and how you can control them. It supplements — and should be read alongside — our Privacy Policy.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files a website places on your device so it can remember things between page loads — for example, that you're signed in. We also use functionally equivalent browser storage (localStorage) for a small number of preferences.
2. Categories we use
- Strictly necessary — required to sign you in, keep your session secure, and process payments. Cannot be switched off from within the app.
- Functional — remember preferences such as theme and a referral code you arrived with. You can opt out by clearing storage; the site still works.
- Analytics — currently not used. If we add privacy-friendly analytics in future, this page and the Privacy Policy will be updated first and, where required, consent requested.
- Advertising / third-party tracking — never used. We don't sell your data and we don't run ad-network pixels.
3. Cookies in use right now
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| sb-access-token / sb-refresh-token | CK Club (auth) | Keeps you signed in to your member dashboard and community after login. | Session + refresh (up to 1 year, rotated) | Strictly necessary |
| ck-theme | CK Club | Remembers your light/dark theme preference so the UI doesn't flash on reload. | 1 year | Functional |
| ck-referral | CK Club | Stores a referral code you arrived with so the referring member can be credited if you subscribe. | 30 days | Functional |
| __stripe_mid / __stripe_sid | Stripe | Fraud prevention on the secure Stripe checkout pop-up. Set only when the checkout is opened. | 1 year / 30 min | Strictly necessary |
4. Third-party services that may set cookies
- Stripe — sets fraud-prevention cookies on the secure checkout pop-up when you upgrade or top up. See Stripe's cookie policy.
- Brevo — used to deliver transactional emails from
notify.club.creative-kay.com; does not set cookies on this site. - Managed cloud auth provider — sets the session cookies that keep you signed in.
5. How to control cookies
You can block or delete cookies at any time from your browser settings. Removing our authentication cookies will sign you out. Removing functional cookies will reset preferences such as theme.
Most browsers also offer a "Do Not Track" signal or Global Privacy Control (GPC). We respect GPC where technically applicable — and, because we don't run advertising or cross-site trackers, there is nothing extra to disable.
6. Changes
If we add or remove a cookie we'll update the table above and the "Last updated" date. Material changes will also be mentioned in the Privacy Policy.
