Definition and role

Cookies are small data files that a website stores on a visitor’s device to support core platform features. On Kynastora, cookies enable login sessions, personalize document sorting, and secure access for digital legacy management. By comparing cookie-based systems to non-cookie alternatives, the efficiency in preserving user preferences is clear. Without cookies, continuity between sessions would require manual steps, increasing complexity for users.

Types of cookies used

The platform uses session cookies for authentication, analytics cookies to improve platform performance, and functional cookies to maintain file organization. Unlike platforms that skip analytics, this approach identifies bottlenecks and enhances digital document management workflows. All cookies set by Kynastora follow Indian data privacy regulations and are regularly reviewed to align with evolving standards.

User controls and choices

Users may control cookie preferences via browser settings or the site’s consent management tool. Declining certain cookies may affect automated document preservation and personalized features. Other sites may rely solely on browser-side storage or require repeated logins, leading to fragmented user experiences. Managing consent balances privacy with convenience—giving users control over how their information is used.
