Cookie Policy & Browser Storage Disclosure
Comprehensive explanation of the local storage keys, session tokens, and functional cookies used to maintain your cryptographic dashboard sessions on Poppetlystashpnt.
1. What Are Cookies and Local Storage Identifiers?
Cookies are compact text files placed onto your computer, tablet, or mobile browser by websites you visit. Similar client-side technologies—such as browser `localStorage` and `sessionStorage`—allow web applications to store operational preferences and session tokens locally on your machine without constantly transmitting state data to remote servers.
2. Our Categorization of Cookies
Poppetlystashpnt uses three specific categories of browser identifiers:
- Essential & Security Cookies: Strictly necessary for the platform to function. These manage encrypted CSRF authentication tokens, route load balancing, and remember whether you have acknowledged our cookie consent notice. They cannot be disabled without breaking application functionality.
- Functional & Preference Cookies: Maintain your operational state across sessions, including chosen dashboard visual themes, default sorting order, and active workspace selections.
- Performance & Telemetry Cookies: Anonymized metrics that assist our engineering team in identifying slow-rendering chart topologies, client-side memory pressures, and network bottlenecks.

4. How to Manage and Opt-Out via Browser Controls
In addition to the controls provided in our fixed bottom consent banner, all modern desktop and mobile browsers allow you to inspect, manage, and delete stored cookies and storage keys directly:
- Google Chrome: Navigate to Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data.
- Mozilla Firefox: Navigate to Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data.
- Apple Safari: Navigate to Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data.
- Microsoft Edge: Navigate to Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies.
Please note that blocking essential session cookies will cause computational console features, spreadsheet ingestion buffers, and live charting tools to fail.
5. Updates to This Cookie Schedule
We periodically review this policy to reflect new platform features, security patches, and regulatory guidance. Any material amendments will be signaled by updating the "Last Updated" timestamp at the top of this document.
