Cookies
This page explains what cookies are, which ones Apistream Hub uses, and how you can accept or reject optional cookies.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. Similar technologies such as localStorage may store preferences — for example your consent choice under the key apistream_hub_cookie_consent.
Types we use
Essential
Required for basic site functions such as remembering cookie preferences and protecting form submissions from casual abuse. These do not require analytics consent.
Analytics
Optional cookies that help us understand aggregate traffic patterns. They load only if you Accept in the banner. Rejecting analytics does not block courses, contact forms, or reading pages.
Cookies table
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Provider |
|---|---|---|---|
| apistream_hub_cookie_consent | Stores Accept or Reject choice for the cookie banner | 1 year (localStorage) | Apistream Hub |
| ash_session | Maintains a short-lived session token for form integrity | Session | Apistream Hub |
| _ash_analytics | Aggregated page-view metrics when consent is granted | 6 months | Apistream Hub analytics |
| _ash_ref | Remembers first landing path for internal reporting | 30 days | Apistream Hub analytics |
Third-party cookies
Embedded fonts or images from third-party CDNs may set their own technical cookies according to those providers’ policies. We do not use advertising networks on this site.
How to manage or disable cookies
Use Accept or Reject on our banner. You can clear site data in your browser to reset the choice. Browser settings also let you block cookies globally; note that blocking essential storage may reset preferences on each visit.
Impact of disabling
Rejecting analytics leaves the site fully usable. Blocking all storage may prevent us from remembering your choice, so the banner may reappear. Course content and the contact form remain available.
