Cookie policy

Last updated: October 9, 2026

This page explains which cookies and similar technologies the skylls website and dashboard at skylls.dev use, why, and how you can control them. In short: only what the site needs to work, plus Google Fonts if you allow it. No analytics, no advertising, no tracking.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser. Similar technologies, such as your browser's local storage, work the same way. Under the EU ePrivacy rules and the national laws that apply them, a site may only use those that are strictly necessary for the service you ask for without your consent; everything else needs your consent first.
