Technical Storage
STORAGE AND COOKIE RECORDS
We operate with minimal local state. We do not use third-party marketing trackers or ad retargeting cookies.
1. WHAT COOKIES AND STORAGE KEYS DO WE USE?
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device by a web server. Browsers also provide localStorage, which stores preferences locally within your web browser.
Because skandibuzzcurios.com is a clean, static editorial publication, we use zero third-party advertising, behavioural, or affiliate cookies.
2. ESSENTIAL AND PREFERENCE MECHANISMS
| Identifier | Type | Purpose | Lifespan |
|---|---|---|---|
| cookieConsent | localStorage | Remembers whether the user has acknowledged the technical notice so the notification does not re-appear on every visit. | Persistent (until cleared by user) |
| cf_clearance / host_sec | Technical Cookie | Provided by reverse proxy and DNS caching layers strictly to verify that incoming traffic is not part of a malicious DDoS botnet. | Session or up to 30 days |
3. MANAGING BROWSER STORAGE
You can inspect, clear, or block cookies and local storage keys at any time via your browser settings:
- In Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data.
- In Chrome / Edge: Settings → Privacy and Security → Third-party cookies & Site Data.
- In Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data.
Blocking local storage on this site will not break any reading functionality: all essays, research tables, and image archives will remain fully accessible.
