Cookie Settings & Policy
Complete transparency regarding cookies, browser LocalStorage, and technical data storage across PolicyDrift.
1. What Are Cookies & Local Storage?
Cookies and LocalStorage are standard web technologies that allow websites to store small pieces of textual data on your browser. They enable web applications to remember your session state, maintain security headers, and preserve user preferences (like your preferred viewing mode).
At PolicyDrift, we maintain a minimalist storage philosophy: we do not use cookies to profile you across the web or sell your browsing history to third-party ad networks.
2. How PolicyDrift Uses Storage
These cookies and HTTP headers are required for core security, CSRF protection, and load balancing across reverse proxies. Without these tokens, authenticated administrative operations and secure edge routing cannot function.
Stored directly in your browser's LocalStorage. Examples include remembering your active sports desk tab, dismissed announcements, or reader appearance modes. This data remains on your local device and is never transmitted to advertisers.
Used by our live sports and market feeds to maintain persistent Server-Sent Event (SSE) connection health and prevent redundant polling cycles.
3. How to Manage Cookies in Your Browser
You have full control over cookies and browser storage. You can configure your browser to block cookies or delete existing storage at any time:
Note: Blocking strictly necessary security tokens may affect certain authenticated operations on administrative panels.
4. Inquiries & Updates
We periodically review this policy to reflect new web standards and privacy regulations. If you have questions regarding our cookie practices, reach our compliance team at policy.drift.yt@gmail.com.
