Cookies & Storage
What the Lithaya website and apps store in your browser, and why.
1. The website
The public Lithaya website does not use advertising, analytics or tracking cookies. Our web server keeps standard access logs for security.
The site loads its fonts from Google Fonts, which receives your IP address when the fonts are downloaded.
2. The Clinical Workspace and Guided Review
The workspace uses your browser's own storage (local storage and IndexedDB) to keep your work on your device:
- Your settings, such as theme, specialty and report sections
- The current and previous case, so you can restore it
- A record of your professional-use confirmations
- Your libraries, together with the Lithaya folder you choose
This information stays in your browser. It is not sent to Lithaya.
3. Lithaya Academy
Lithaya Academy keeps your track, progress, practice cases and confirmation record in your browser's storage. Export your progress from Settings to keep a copy.
4. Signing in
When you sign in, the website sets its sign-in cookies (their names begin with wordpress_logged_in_ and wordpress_sec_). They hold your username and a random code, not your password, and are used only to keep you signed in until you choose Sign out, for up to a year. Signing out removes them. Your account is used on one device at a time: signing in on another device signs you out on the first.
On the Subscribe page, card payments are handled by our payment processor, which sets its own cookies there to prevent fraud.
5. Your control
You can clear browser storage at any time in your browser's settings. Clearing it does not delete the libraries saved in your Lithaya folder, but it does delete Academy progress you have not exported.
