Cookies and browser storage

Opening a NoticeClear page sets no cookies. There is no analytics, no advertising pixel and no session replay. Cookies are set only when you take a step that needs one, such as opening a case or signing in.

Strictly necessary

These make the service work. They do not need consent and cannot be switched off.

Name	Type	When it is set	Purpose	How long
`nc_guest`	Cookie	Only when you open a case without signing in.	A signed, random guest id so this browser can reach the case you opened. httpOnly, SameSite=Lax, Secure.	30 days
`__Secure-authjs.session-token`	Cookie	Only after you sign in with Google.	Keeps you signed in. httpOnly, SameSite=Lax, Secure. Auth.js also sets short-lived helper cookies (authjs csrf-token, callback-url, pkce, state) during the sign-in step itself.	Session sign-in period; cleared on sign-out
`tc_token, nc_staff, nc_mfa`	Cookie	Only for NoticeClear staff after a staff sign-in.	Staff access to the console. httpOnly, Secure. Customers never receive these.	Up to 12 hours
`nc-intake-gate`	Session storage	Only when you answer the eligibility questions before an upload.	Remembers your answers to those questions in this tab. It stays in your browser and is not sent to us as a cookie.	Until the tab is closed

Optional

None. Google Ads conversion measurement is built in but switched off, so no Google script loads and no Google cookie is set. If it is ever switched on, it will load only after you accept, and this page will list its cookies first.

Third parties

Pages load only from noticeclear.co.uk. Google is contacted only if you press Sign in with Google, and Stripe only when you go to a hosted checkout page; each then applies its own cookies on its own site.

Your preferences

There are no optional cookies on this site at the moment, so there is nothing to switch on or off and no cookie banner. If optional measurement is ever added, it will stay off until you accept it here or on the banner.
