By accepting cookies on either site, Your choice is honoured on both — You will not be asked again on the other. By using Our Site, You agree to this Cookie Policy. If You do not agree, please stop using Our Site immediately.

3. How Does Our Site Use Cookies?
3.1 Our Site may place and access certain cookies on your device. These fall into two categories:
- Strictly Necessary (Essential) Cookies: Required for the operation of Our Site, enabling core functions such as user login, security, and managing cookie consent.
- Analytics Cookies: Help Us understand how visitors use Our Site and allow Us to improve performance and Your experience. These cookies collect anonymous data only.
3.2 We do not deploy functionality cookies separately; all important functionality is covered under Essential or Analytics cookies.
3.3 All cookies used comply with current Cookie Law and expire after a maximum of one year unless otherwise specified.
3.4 Shared cookie consent. Your cookie consent (accepted_cookies) is stored at the alkem.io top-level domain so a single choice applies across the welcome site and the Alkemio platform (alkem.io and its Space subdomains).
3.5 For details about the personal data We collect and Your rights, please refer to our Privacy Policy.
4. What Cookies Does Our Site Use?
4.1 First-Party Cookies (Essential and Analytics)

4.2 Local Storage

| Key | Purpose |
|---|---|
| lastVersionMismatch | Remembers whether You have already been prompted to refresh for a particular new app version, so You don’t see the exact same refresh prompt twice. |
