1. Overview
We keep cookie usage on youShine deliberately minimal. This page lists exactly what we set, and just as importantly, what we don't.
2. What We Use
A strictly-necessary session cookie, set only once you sign in, and one preference cookie that remembers your language:
access_token
Keeps you signed in for 15 minutes at a time. HTTP-only (never readable by page scripts), sent only to youShine.
refresh_token
Silently renews your session for up to 30 days without asking you to sign in again. Also HTTP-only, scoped to just the refresh endpoint.
youshine_lang
Remembers the language you picked (English, Arabic, Russian or French) for a year, so pages open in it. Set only when you choose a language; holds nothing but the language code.
Both are strictly necessary to keep you logged in as you move between pages — under GDPR's ePrivacy rules and UAE data-protection law alike, cookies that are essential to a service you've asked for don't require consent, only disclosure. That's what this page is.
3. What We Don't Use
No analytics cookies (Google Analytics or similar), no advertising or retargeting pixels, no third-party tracking scripts, and no cross-site tracking of any kind. We don't use browser local storage to track you either. If that ever changes, we'll update this page and ask for your consent first.
