COOKIE POLICY
Detailed technical inventory of client-side storage keys, purpose specifications, duration lifespans, and browser user controls on sortboardtogetherly.monster.
1. Understanding Cookies & Web Storage
Cookies and web storage technologies (including localStorage and sessionStorage) are small text strings or data keys stored on your computing device by your web browser. They allow websites to remember user state, preserve interface selections, and provide essential navigation services.
sortboardtogetherly.monster operates with extreme restraint regarding client-side storage. We do not deploy third-party advertising cookies, cross-site telemetry trackers, or profiling tools.
2. Detailed Storage Inventory
The following table lists all client-side data tokens utilized by this website:
| Category | Key Name / Purpose | Storage Engine | Duration | User Control |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Essential | atlas_cookie_consentRecords your consent status (accept, reject, or preferences) so the banner does not re-display. |
Local Storage (HTML5) | 12 Months (Persistent) | Clear via browser site settings or banner controls. |
| Functional | atlas_nav_stateTemporarily preserves drawer visibility or focus states during dynamic view adjustments. |
Session Storage | Session only (Terminates on tab close) | Automatic clearance upon tab closure. |
3. Detailed Category Specifications
Essential Storage
Essential storage keys are mandatory for the fundamental operation of the website. Without these keys, the interface cannot remember whether you have already addressed the cookie notification, resulting in repetitive prompts on every page reload. These tokens do not store personally identifiable data, IP addresses, or browsing history.
Functional & Preference Storage
Functional tokens are strictly temporary mechanisms that ensure your reading position and accessibility settings remain stable across responsive device rotations. They contain only boolean state values or interface identifiers.
Analytics & Marketing Tokens
sortboardtogetherly.monster does not implement commercial analytics cookies, retargeting pixels, or marketing trackers. We do not share telemetry with third-party advertising exchanges.
4. Managing and Disabling Storage via Browser Controls
You can manage, restrict, or clear browser cookies and local storage tokens at any time through your browser's security preferences. Instructions for major browsers:
- Google Chrome: Navigate to Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and other site data. From here, choose "Block third-party cookies" or remove stored data for specific domains.
- Mozilla Firefox: Navigate to Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data. Select "Manage Data" to delete entries for sortboardtogetherly.monster.
- Apple Safari: Navigate to Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data. Select sortboardtogetherly.monster and click "Remove".
- Microsoft Edge: Navigate to Settings > Cookies and site permissions > Manage and delete cookies and site data.
Please note that disabling all local storage will cause the consent banner to appear on every new session, but will not prevent you from reading our field guides.
5. Policy Revisions
We review our storage framework periodically. If additional functional tokens are required to maintain accessibility standards, this table will be updated immediately with the exact key name and lifespan.
