Cookie policy
Last updated 5 November 2026
This website sets no cookies and stores nothing in your browser. The DiscoveraVS service uses one cookie to keep you signed in and remembers a few interface choices on your device. All of it is strictly necessary for something you asked for, which is why we do not ask for consent and do not show a cookie banner.

1This website
1.1discoverapharma.com sets no cookies, uses no local or session storage, and loads nothing from any other site: fonts, scripts and images are all served from this domain. There is no analytics script, no advertising pixel and no embedded social media.
1.2We count visits from our own server logs, as our privacy policy describes in clause 3. When you follow a link from here into the app, the link carries the name of the site that sent you and the first page you opened; that is held only in the open page, never stored on your device.
2The DiscoveraVS service
| Name | Type | What it does | How long |
|---|---|---|---|
| dvs_control | Cookie | Keeps you signed in. Marked HttpOnly, Secure and SameSite=Lax, so scripts cannot read it and other sites cannot send it. | Up to 104 days in the browser; the server ends the session after 14 days without use, or 90 days at most |
| dvs-session-ended | Session storage | Remembers, for one page load, that you have just signed out, so the sign-in screen says so. | Removed on the next page load |
| dvs.rail.collapsed, dvs.filter.presets.v1, dvs.radar.rule.v1, dvs.tour.v1 | Local storage | Your interface choices: whether the side rail is collapsed, the filter presets you saved, a display rule, and where you are in the guided tour. | Until you clear them or your browser does |
| Sketcher settings | Local storage | The structure editor (Ketcher) remembers its own display options. | Until you clear them or your browser does |
2.1All of these are set by app.discoverapharma.com itself. None is used for advertising or to follow you across other sites, and the browser storage stays on your device.
2.2You can delete them in your browser settings at any time. Without the sign-in cookie you are simply signed out; without the others the workbench returns to its defaults.
3Payments
3.1When online payment opens, you will pay on Stripe’s own pages. Stripe sets its own cookies there, mainly to prevent fraud, under its own cookie policy. We set none on its behalf.
4If this changes
4.1If we ever add anything that is not strictly necessary, such as analytics, we will ask for your consent first, and you will be able to refuse it as easily as to accept it. This page will list it before it goes live.
