Cookie Policy

Last updated: August 9, 2026

This is a plain-language summary prepared to match the app's current functionality. It is not a substitute for legal advice — see the Privacy Policy for who is responsible for your data.

What We Use

ForceIndex mainly uses browser storage (not traditional cookies) to keep you logged in and remember your preferences — these are strictly necessary and active regardless of consent. With your consent, given via the banner shown on first visit, we also load analytics tools that do set cookies. This applies to the app itself as well as our public pages (pricing, articles, and this page). You can change your choice any time in Settings → Legal → Cookie preferences.

Storage We Use (Always Active — Strictly Necessary)

KeyStoragePurposeExpires
fi_token localStorage / sessionStorage JWT access token — keeps you logged in 15 min (auto-refreshed)
fi_refresh localStorage / sessionStorage Refresh token — renews your session silently 30 days
fi_lang localStorage Your chosen interface language Until cleared
fi_wkt_draft localStorage Auto-saves your in-progress workout Cleared on save or discard
fi_cookies_ok localStorage Remembers your cookie-consent choice Until cleared

These do not require consent under EU/PL ePrivacy rules because the app cannot function without them.

Analytics Cookies (Only With Your Consent)

If you accept analytics in the cookie banner, we load Microsoft Clarity, a session-recording and heatmap tool, to help us see how the app is actually used and fix usability problems. It is not loaded until you accept, and never for users who decline. Clarity may set:

CookiePurposeExpires
_clckPersists a Clarity user ID across visits1 year
_clskGroups multiple page views into one session recording1 day
CLIDIdentifies the first Clarity session on this device1 year
ANONCHK, MUID, MR, SMSet by the Microsoft infrastructure Clarity runs onUp to 1 year

Clarity is operated by Microsoft Corporation (United States); data it collects may be processed outside the EEA. See Microsoft's Privacy Statement and Clarity's cookie list for details.

We also use Google Analytics to understand traffic and how pages are used, under the same consent — never loaded until you accept, never for users who decline. It may set:

CookiePurposeExpires
_gaDistinguishes unique visitors2 years
_ga_<container-id>Persists session state for Google Analytics 4 properties2 years

Google Analytics is operated by Google LLC (United States); data it collects may be processed outside the EEA. See Google's Privacy Policy for details.

How to Change or Clear

Go to Settings → Legal → Cookie preferences to withdraw or re-give analytics consent at any time — this is as easy as giving it. You can also clear all stored data through your browser settings; this logs you out of ForceIndex, but your account data on our servers is not affected.
