We keep this deliberately minimal. 1report uses only the cookies strictly necessary to keep the platform working and secure — we do not use advertising, marketing, or third-party tracking/analytics cookies.
| Cookie | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1report_session | Keeps you signed in and identifies your account securely. Set as HTTP-only (not readable by page scripts) and secure (HTTPS only). | Strictly necessary | Up to 12 hours, or until you sign out |
| 1report_cookie_notice_dismissed | Remembers that you've seen this cookie notice, so we don't show it again. | Strictly necessary / preference | Stored in your browser until cleared |
Under Kenya's Data Protection Act, 2019 and its General Regulations, cookies that are strictly necessary to provide a service you've requested (like staying logged in) don't require prior opt-in consent — but we still believe you should know they're there, which is why this page exists and why we show a short notice on your first visit.
If we ever introduce analytics, marketing, or other non-essential cookies in the future, we will update this policy first and ask for your consent via a proper opt-in banner before setting them — not after.
Because we only use strictly necessary cookies, blocking them will likely break the ability to stay signed in. If you'd still like to manage or clear cookies, you can do so through your browser's settings (usually under Privacy / Site Settings).
See our Privacy Policy for how we handle personal data more broadly.
