Cookie notice
This notice lists the cookies and similar browser storage used on cooppanel.com, what each category is for, how long entries last, and how to change your mind at any time.
1. What a cookie is
A cookie is a small text file that a site asks your browser to store, so that something can be remembered between page loads — a language preference, a session, or the fact that you already answered a banner. Alongside cookies, sites can use similar browser storage such as local storage, session storage and service workers. In this notice, “cookie” covers all of them.
2. Categories used on this site
| Category | What it does | Typical lifetime | Set by |
|---|---|---|---|
| Necessary | Keeps the site working and remembers whether you accepted or declined optional cookies, so the banner does not reappear on every page. Cannot be switched off without breaking the site. | Session to 12 months | CoopPanel |
| Analytics | Counts visits and shows which entries are read, in aggregate. Used to decide which genres to check next. Only set after you accept. | Up to 13 months | CoopPanel and its measurement provider |
| Advertising | Supports the advertising placements shown on this site, including frequency capping and basic reporting. Only set after you accept. | Up to 13 months | Advertising partners |
| Push notifications | Stores the subscription identifier issued when you allow browser notifications, and registers a service worker file so messages can be delivered. Only created if you accept the browser prompt. | Until permission is revoked | OneSignal |
3. OneSignal and browser notifications
Browser notifications on this site are delivered by OneSignal, acting as our processor. When you accept the notification prompt, OneSignal registers a service worker in your browser, stores a subscription identifier in local storage or IndexedDB, and receives the e-mail address and optional name you entered in the subscription form together with the tags recorded with that subscription.
Nothing is registered until you accept the browser prompt. Revoking notification permission in your browser stops delivery immediately; the stored identifier can then be cleared by deleting site data. What OneSignal holds and why is described in our privacy policy.
4. How the banner works
On your first visit a banner appears at the foot of the page with two buttons, Accept and Decline. Your answer is stored in your browser so the banner stays away on later visits. Decline means optional analytics and advertising entries are not set; necessary entries remain, because the site cannot function without them.
To answer again, clear the site data for cooppanel.com in your browser and reload the page.
