How Distill Uses Cookies

We use only the following essential and functional storage mechanisms:

• Authentication Cookies (Essential): Set by Clerk to keep you securely signed in during your active session (`__session`, `__clerk_db_jwt`).
• Attribution Local Storage (Functional): First-party storage used strictly to measure marketing acquisition source (`acquisitionSource`, `acquisitionMedium`). This data stays strictly within Distill.
• Preferences Local Storage (Functional): Stores UI state such as cookie consent dismissal, theme preferences, and active tab selections.
