Cookie Policy

Bothive uses cookies and similar technologies to manage authenticated sessions, preserve your preferences, and optimize the platform. Here's exactly why and how.

Last updated February 19, 2026

The cookies we use

Strictly Necessary

Essential for authentication (Supabase tokens) and security. These cannot be disabled — they keep your session from being hijacked.

Preference Cookies

Remembers your HiveLang editor theme, sidebar orientation, and language localization.

Technical Analytics

Anonymized telemetry to track rendering performance and potential API bottlenecks.

Local storage & IndexedDB

In addition to standard cookies, Bothive uses Local Storage to cache large HiveLang templates and IDE state. This reduces network overhead and keeps development low-latency. Local Storage data stays on your machine and is not synced to our servers unless you explicitly commit a template.

Third-party identifiers

We strictly limit third-party trackers. The following external services may set transitional cookies during use:

  • Stripe sets fraud-prevention cookies during checkout in the Hive Store.
  • Google / GitHub set temporary session cookies during the OAuth 2.0 handshake.

No advertising sell-through

Bothive does not participate in cross-site advertising networks. We never use cookies to serve third-party ads or to track your browsing across the web.

Control mechanisms

You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to warn you when one is set. However, if you decline essential cookies you won't be able to access the Bothive dashboard or manage your agents, since session management depends on these technical markers.

Global compliance

This policy is designed to align with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the European Union and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
