What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored in your browser when you visit a website. MCPSafe uses a minimal set of cookies — only what is necessary to run the service securely and, with your consent, to understand how developers use our scanner.
You can change your preferences at any time:
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are required for the site to function. They cannot be disabled.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| mcpsafe_consent | Stores your cookie consent choices | MCPSafe | 1 year | None |
| mcpsafe_session | Keeps you logged in (JWT) | MCPSafe | Session | None |
| mcpsafe_ref | First-party referral attribution — set when you arrive via a ?ref= link so a referral discount can be applied at signup | MCPSafe | 30 days | Referral code only |
| XSRF-TOKEN | CSRF attack prevention | MCPSafe | Session | None |
| CognitoIdentityServiceProvider.* | AWS Cognito auth tokens | AWS | Session | None |

Functional cookies
We do not currently set any functional cookies. Preferences such as display settings are stored in browser localStorage, not cookies.
How to manage cookies
- Change preferences on MCPSafe:
- Browser settings: You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings — Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge.
- PostHog opt-out: PostHog respects the Do Not Track header. Reject analytics cookies above to disable it.
- Note: blocking strictly necessary cookies will break authentication and the scanner.
