# Cookies and browser storage

The two cookies Toddly sets after you sign in, and the few settings kept in your own browser. No advertising or tracking.

Updated 12 November 2026. Page: https://toddly.co.uk/cookies

We use only what the site needs to work, so there is nothing to accept or decline. We do not use advertising cookies, analytics trackers or social media pixels.

## Cookies

Set only when you sign in, and removed when you sign out:

| Name | What it does | How long |
|---|---|---|
| nf_session | Keeps you signed in. It holds a random code, not your email. | 30 days |
| nf_in | Tells our pages you are probably signed in, so the right buttons show. It holds only "1". | 30 days |

## Storage in your browser

These stay on your device. We cannot read them unless your browser sends them as part of using a feature, and you can clear them at any time in your browser settings.

| Name | What it does |
|---|---|
| theme | Remembers light or dark mode if you choose one. |
| recentSearches | Your last five searches, shown when you click the search box. |
| shortlist | Nurseries you save before signing in (up to 20), and the ones you tick to compare. When you sign in we copy them to your account. |
| nf_vid | A random code that lets the assistant on a nursery page show your earlier conversation when you come back. |
| nf_g_…, nf_o_… | Remember, for this visit only, that the assistant's greeting has been shown. |

Nurseries that add our assistant to their own website use the same `nf_vid` code on their site.
