1. What Are Cookies and Local Storage?
Cookies are compact text files placed onto your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used by web developers to make websites function efficiently, retain user preferences across page requests, and supply anonymous operational statistics.
Brightsrankpantry also utilizes standard browser localStorage to remember your privacy choices. Unlike cookies, localStorage records remain on your client device and are never automatically transmitted back to web servers with each network request.
2. How We Categorize Cookies
We organize web storage mechanisms into three distinct classifications:
- Strictly Necessary (Essential) Cookies: Required for the technical operation of the site, including security token verification and recording whether you have acknowledged the cookie notification.
- Performance & Analytics Cookies: Measure aggregate page view volumes, navigation patterns, and identify broken links across our road guides to help us improve content structure.
- Functional & Preference Storage: Stores client-side interface choices, such as map diagram display states and saved route coordinates.
