Cookie Policy
Last updated: June 4, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar technologies Sapphire Service uses on saph.services, why we use them, and how you can control them.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide basic analytics to site owners. Cookies cannot execute code or deliver viruses — they are passive data files.
2. Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies (always active — cannot be disabled)
These cookies are strictly necessary for saph.services to function. Without them, core features such as authentication, cart, and checkout do not work.

| csrf_token | Protects forms against cross-site request forgery attacks | Session |
| cart | Stores your cart contents between page loads | 7 days |
| auth_token | Keeps you logged in across page navigations | 30 days (if "remember me" selected) |
Functional Cookies (optional)
These cookies remember your preferences to personalise your experience. Disabling them may affect how the site looks or behaves for you.
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| ui_theme | Stores your chosen colour theme (dark/light) | 1 year |
| lang | Remembers your preferred display language | 1 year |
Analytics Cookies (optional)
These cookies help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. All data collected is aggregated and anonymised — we cannot identify individual users from analytics data.

5. Cookie Consent
When you first visit saph.services, a cookie consent banner will ask for your permission to set optional (functional and analytics) cookies. Essential cookies are activated automatically as they are necessary for the site to function. You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clearing your cookies and revisiting the site, or through your browser settings as described above.
