Cookie Policy — SaunaAtlas

Effective date: Nov 11th, 2026

This policy describes every file and every entry that SaunaAtlas places on, or reads from, your device — on saunaatlas.com and on app.saunaatlas.com. The list below is complete, and is generated from the same inventory the cookie dialog itself reads.

Page views are counted either way, including when you allow nothing. No part of that stores anything on your device or reads anything from it: what is counted is the time, the page, the country and city our platform resolved from the IP address, and the kind of device, operating system and browser. The IP address itself is not stored, not even as a hash, and views counted that way cannot be attributed to a person — by us or by anybody.

Necessary

What the site needs in order to work: signing in, protecting that against misuse, remembering this choice — and, only if you click to book a ticket, the booking window. They cannot be turned off: refusing them would mean refusing the thing they are for.

Name	Purpose	Duration	Where
`sa_consent`	Remembers this choice.	1 year	Public pages, Map application
`serviceToken`	Hands your sign-in to the page you are redirected to.	1 minute	Map application
`oauthState`	Protects the sign-in against misuse.	10 minutes	Map application
`booking.agendo.io`	Only when you click to book a ticket: the booking window from our provider Agendo, which keeps its own data on its own domain. It is never loaded unless you click.	Set by Agendo (External service)	Map application
`accessToken`	Keeps you signed in.	Until you sign out (Not a cookie — browser storage)	Map application
`user`	Your name and account settings, so the app does not have to ask for them again.	Until you sign out (Not a cookie — browser storage)	Map application
`sauna-locations-data`	A copy of the atlas, so the map does not re-download forty thousand destinations every time it opens.	Until you clear it (Not a cookie — browser storage)	Map application

Functional

Remembers your settings: the language, light or dark, and how you have the map set up — whether markers are clustered, which of them are shown, where the map was left. Without this they still apply for this visit and are not remembered the next time.

Name	Purpose	Duration	Where
`lang`	Remembers the language you chose.	1 year	Public pages
`theme`	Remembers light or dark.	1 year	Public pages
`language`	The language you chose.	Until you withdraw consent (Not a cookie — browser storage)	Map application
`map settings`	How you have the map set up: whether markers are clustered, which of them are shown, aerial or not, where the map was left and which panels were open.	Until you withdraw consent (Not a cookie — browser storage)	Map application

Statistics

Counts returning visitors, so one person is not counted as two. Page views are counted either way; this only decides whether two of them can be told to be the same person. None of it is published or passed on.

Name	Purpose	Duration	Where
`sa_visitor`	One random id, so returning visitors are not counted twice. It says nothing about you.	400 days	Public pages, Map application
`sessionId`	Groups the saunas looked at in one sitting into one visit.	Until you withdraw consent (Not a cookie — browser storage)	Map application
`_vercel_insights`	Vercel’s own page-view measurement, served from this domain and with no cookie of its own.	Stores nothing (External service)	Public pages, Map application

Changing your choice

You can change your choice at any time, and as easily as you made it: on the public pages through "Cookie settings" at the foot of every page, and in the map application through the same entry in the user menu. Withdrawing deletes the entries concerned from your device, not merely their use. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser’s own settings — the help pages for Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Edge describe how.
