Last updated: July 23, 2025
1. About This Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how AstraIQ, Inc. ("the Company," "we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on astraiq.org. It supplements our Privacy Policy. astraiq.org is a technical marketing and early-access site for our AI-driven materials discovery platform; the cookies we use here are minimal and functional.
2. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow us to recognise your device, store preferences, and measure usage. We also use related technologies such as local storage to remember whether you have dismissed our cookie notice.
3. How We Use Cookies
We use only the categories below on astraiq.org. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.
| Category | Examples | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | session, CSRF token, cookie-banner dismissal state | session - 6 months |
| Preferences | navigation state, form preferences | up to 12 months |
| Analytics | self-hosted or privacy-respecting analytics, anonymised | up to 13 months |
| Marketing | not currently used | N/A |
4. Notice and Choice
astraiq.org operates under a notice-only consent model. When you visit the site, a banner informs you that we use cookies to operate the Service and measure usage. By continuing to use the Service you acknowledge this use. You can dismiss the banner and you can opt out of analytics cookies through your browser settings at any time.
We do not use the notice banner to imply that you have granted consent for purposes beyond what we describe in this Policy.
5. Universal Opt-Out Signals
Where applicable state law requires (including California under CPRA, Colorado under CPA, Connecticut under CTDPA, Texas under TDPSA, and Oregon under CPA), we honour browser-transmitted opt-out signals such as the Global Privacy Control ("GPC") for sale and targeted-advertising categories. Because we do not sell or share personal information for behavioral advertising, GPC signals are honoured by suppressing any analytics initialisation for the relevant browser session.
6. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies may be set by third-party service providers (for example, analytics infrastructure) acting as our processors. We have agreements with such providers limiting their use of data to delivering services to us. We do not permit third-party providers to use data collected on astraiq.org for their own advertising purposes.
