1. What a cookie is
A cookie is a small text file a website drops onto your device so it can remember something between page loads or visits. HeatSure currently uses essential first-party cookies to keep authenticated accounts signed in.
2. The cookies we set
Essential cookies are required for account authentication and security. The website does not currently set optional analytics cookies. If optional cookies are introduced, they will not be loaded before consent and this policy and the available preference controls will be updated first.
| Name | Kind | Purpose | Expires |
|---|---|---|---|
| hs_at | Essential | Signed access token used to authenticate account requests. | 15 minutes |
| hs_rt | Essential | Refreshes the access token so an authenticated session can continue securely. | 30 days |
| hs_user | Essential | Cached user profile the sidebar reads. Non-HttpOnly so client components can render. | 30 days |
| hs_ref | Essential | Remembers the influencer referral link you intentionally followed so an eligible sign-up can be attributed. It contains only the public referral slug. | Up to 30 days |
3. How to control them
Every mainstream browser lets you view and delete cookies for a specific site. Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Edge all put the option under Settings → Privacy. You can also block all third-party cookies at the browser level and blocking essential cookies will prevent signed-in account features from working correctly.
4. Third parties
HeatSure's authentication cookies are first-party cookies set by heat-sure.com. Payment providers may set their own essential cookies on their domains when you move to a hosted checkout. Their policies apply there.
