1. Transparent Client-Side Storage

At buddybeaconvaultbx.beauty, we minimize client-side state storage. Unlike conventional consumer portals that inject hundreds of persistent tracking cookies and commercial ad retargeting tags, our static infrastructure uses only strictly necessary and functional state tokens.

2. Detailed Cookie and Storage Register

The table below specifies all cookies and local browser storage keys used across our web ecosystem:

Identifier Storage Classification Domain / Origin Duration Operational Function
bbv_cookie_pref Functional (LocalStorage) buddybeaconvaultbx.beauty 12 Months Remembers your consent choice (accept, reject, preferences) to suppress repeated banner prompts.
__cf_bm Strictly Essential (Cookie) Routing Edge CDN 30 Minutes Manages incoming request rates and mitigates automated bot volumetric scraping.
bbv_ui_theme Functional (LocalStorage) buddybeaconvaultbx.beauty Persistent Preserves client-side high-contrast or reduced-motion rendering preferences.

3. Cookie Classifications Defined

  • Strictly Essential Cookies: These tokens are technically indispensable to provide secure socket layer (TLS) sessions, balance traffic across reverse proxies, and prevent automated distributed denial of service (DDoS) traffic. Under the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and EU ePrivacy Directive, essential tokens do not require prior consent.
  • Functional Storage Items: These local items preserve UI states such as banner dismissal and display preferences. They contain zero personally identifiable information (PII) and are never transmitted to third parties.
  • Analytics and Tracking Cookies: We do not deploy third-party analytics trackers, behavioral session recording scripts, or retargeting pixels.

4. Browser-Level Opt-Out Instructions

You have total autonomous control over cookies and browser storage through your browser settings. Below are direct instructions for standard web platforms:

  • Mozilla Firefox: Navigate to Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data. Select "Block cookies and site data" or choose "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed".
  • Google Chrome / Chromium: Navigate to Settings > Privacy and Security > Third-party cookies. You can block all third-party cookies or add buddybeaconvaultbx.beauty to the automatic purge list.
  • Apple Safari: Navigate to Preferences > Privacy and ensure "Prevent cross-site tracking" and "Block all cookies" are configured to your operational standard.
  • Microsoft Edge: Navigate to Settings > Cookies and site permissions > Manage and delete cookies and site data to adjust site permissions.

5. Clearing Local Storage Manually

Because our consent state relies on standard browser localStorage, you can clear this state at any time by clearing your browser's site cache or by opening your developer tools console and typing:

localStorage.removeItem('bbv_cookie_pref');

Upon refreshing the page, the initial consent banner will reappear, allowing you to select an alternative consent state.
