Browser storage
Section titled “Browser storage”The app also keeps a few small values in your browser, never sent to us as cookies:
- the chosen language;
- which announcement you closed in the dashboard;
- unfinished uploads, so an interrupted upload can resume;
- in a gallery, that you closed the “access ends soon” note (until the tab is closed).
The help center remembers the light or dark theme the same way.
