Cookie Policy
Last updated: 5 September 2026
StoryJar uses the smallest possible number of cookies. We do not use any analytics, advertising or tracking cookies.
What we use
StoryJar sets one strictly necessary cookie:
| Cookie | Purpose | Type | Expiry |
|---|---|---|---|
portfolio_session | Keeps a signed-in teacher, student or parent logged in for the duration of their session. It is httpOnly and SameSite=Lax. | Strictly necessary | Up to 30 days |
What we do not use
We use no analytics, advertising, social-media or behavioural-tracking cookies, and no third-party trackers. Children are never profiled. Because we only use a strictly necessary cookie, we do not need a cookie consent banner under PECR — but you can still clear the cookie by signing out or clearing your browser data.
Changes
If we ever introduced a non-essential cookie, we would ask for consent first and update this page.
