Browser Storage & Transparency

Cookie Tracking

Clear, straightforward disclosures regarding browser cookies, local storage mechanisms, and our privacy-first technical architecture.

What Are Cookies and Local Storage?

Cookies are small text fragments sent from a website and stored by your web browser. Local Storage is a modern browser feature that lets web pages save data locally on your device without sending it over the network on every server request.

How curiofunbalcny.surf Uses Storage

We do not deploy third-party advertising cookies, cross-site trackers, or behavioral profiling scripts. Our website uses minimal, functional client-side storage:

  • ◆
    Essential Interface Preferences: Browser local storage stores simple interface states (such as mobile menu interactions and consent preferences) so your settings remain consistent across visits.
  • ◆
    Field Dispatch Drafting: When utilizing the Field Dispatch Tool, any temporary draft text is held in your browser's local memory to prevent accidental data loss. This information is never uploaded to an external server.

Managing Your Browser Storage

You have full control over cookie and storage files stored on your computer or mobile device. You can configure your browser to reject cookies, clear cache data on exit, or block site-specific storage altogether:

  • ◆
    Chrome / Edge: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data.
  • ◆
    Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data.
  • ◆
    Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data.

Because our site does not depend on invasive tracking scripts, disabling non-essential cookies will not impact your ability to browse our research articles and field guides.
