Local Storage and Similar Technologies
In addition to cookies, we use browser local storage to persist certain user preferences (theme selection, saved profile data) on your device. Unlike cookies, local storage data is not transmitted to our servers with every request. You can clear local storage via your browser’s developer tools or by clearing browsing data.
We do not use fingerprinting techniques or any technology designed to re-identify you after you clear your cookies.

Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (DNT) signal.

We continue to monitor developments in this space and will update our practices if a legally recognized standard emerges.
