Cookies & local storage
Last updated August 5, 2026
PatrolOS keeps browser storage to a minimum. We use it to keep you signed in, to let field work continue offline, and to remember your preferences. We do not run advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.
What we store
- Authentication session — a token stored by our authentication provider so you stay signed in until you sign out. Strictly necessary.
- Offline queue — checkpoint scans, incident drafts, and media queued in browser storage when connectivity drops, then synced when you reconnect. Strictly necessary for field reliability.
- Preferences — saved views, dismissed recommendations, and interface state so screens open the way you left them. Functional.
- Security and abuse prevention — request metadata used to detect suspicious activity. Strictly necessary.
Third parties
Map tiles and address lookup are loaded from Google Maps Platform and OpenStreetMap, and payment pages are served by Stripe. These providers may set their own cookies when their components load; their own policies apply.
Managing storage
You can clear cookies and site data in your browser settings at any time. Clearing them signs you out and discards anything queued offline that has not yet synced, so sync before clearing.
