Just FYI, if you’re going to have a cookie banner, you need the option to reject optional and 3rd party cookies. If you aren’t going to allow people to reject cookies as easily as you allow them to accept cookies, you are not complying with the ePrivacy directive. If you’re not bothered with complying, or you’re saying that all your cookies are strictly necessary (which they aren’t), you might as well do away with the banner. If you’re interested in reading further, see the ICO’s page on the subject.

We only store json web token data from google, which only gets added after you sign in or create an account. The only option right now to create an account is using google OAuth. We plan on adding more options later down the road. The data is stored in 2 cookies which are both essential for the use of the app.
