Cookies & storage

Why there is no consent pop-up

Irish and EU rules require your consent before a site stores or reads information on your device, unless that storage is strictly necessary for a service you have asked for. Everything this site itself stores is used for something you choose to do: staying signed in, saving your learning and remembering your settings. This site has no analytics, advertising or tracking tools added to it, so we don’t show a consent pop-up.

The site is hosted on Lovable’s platform, which may handle technical data to deliver and secure it. We have not independently verified every cookie or similar item the hosting platform may set on the published site. If we find, or decide to add, anything that isn’t strictly necessary, such as visitor statistics, it will not be used until you have been asked and have had an equally easy way to say no.

Sign-in

sb-…-auth-token

Keeps you signed in, including your email address. Removed when you sign out.

fs-oauth-return

If you sign in with Google or Apple, the page to bring you back to. Removed as soon as you arrive.

Saved learning

When you’re signed in, your learning is saved to your account, and this browser keeps a copy so pages load quickly. Signing out removes it from this browser. Your account copy stays.

Clearing what is stored

You can unsave a lesson, unmark completion, clear checklist ticks or restart a practice shift using the controls on those pages. Signing out removes your sign-in and learning items from this browser. You can also clear this site’s data in your browser settings at any time. Clearing browser data does not delete your account or anything saved to it; to have your account deleted, email firstshiftireland@gmail.com. Blocking storage for this site will stop sign-in and saved progress from working.
