COOKIE POLICY AND SETTINGS
Your choice controls optional reading memory.
You can read every guide and use the joining tools without optional reading-position storage. The settings panel lets you enable or disable that feature and remembers the choice when your browser permits it.
Built-in storage and requests
| Item and source | Purpose and category | Trigger and duration | Change or removal |
|---|---|---|---|
| fsr7_privacy_v1 | First-party necessary cookie: preference version, choice and timestamp | Saved when you make a choice; up to 180 days, subject to browser behavior | Change the choice in settings; browser site-data controls can remove the cookie |
| fsr7_reading_v1 | Optional first-party localStorage: article paths, scroll positions and timestamps, up to 30 entries | Written while reading after permission; entries older than 180 days are ignored or pruned during use. LocalStorage does not expire by itself | Reject or disable reading memory to stop saving and remove the record where browser access permits |
| Joining tools | Temporary page state; no built-in cookie, localStorage or sessionStorage | While the current page is open | Reset, reload or leave the page |
| Video and source references | Outbound links; no built-in player, provider thumbnail or preconnection | Destination request when you follow a link | The destination’s controls apply after navigation; no video-consent record is stored here |
What the choices mean
- Accept All Optional: allows the listed reading-position feature
- Reject Non-Essential: keeps it off and removes its record where possible
- Manage Preferences: lets you choose the reading feature explicitly
The necessary choice cookie is explained rather than presented as a switchable optional service. There is no built-in analytics or advertising category. The panel does not silently enable tracking merely because you close it, scroll or continue reading.
Reopen or withdraw
Cookie Settings remains available in the footer and the persistent on-screen control. A valid saved preference appears when you reopen it. Malformed or expired choices do not enable optional storage. If saving fails, the feature stays off and the interface reports the problem.
Withdrawal concerns the built-in reading record. It does not erase infrastructure logs, email, data already held by external sites or storage created by unrelated WordPress plugins. Browser site-data controls can remove saved first-party data from this device.
If JavaScript is disabled
Article content and the stage explanations remain readable, and the optional reading-position feature does not run. The settings link takes you to this explanation. Use your browser’s site-data controls to remove a preference or reading record saved during an earlier visit.
Scope of the inventory
This inventory comes from inspection of the built-in reader implementation, not an audit of a live production host. WordPress login, hosting security and later integrations can have separate behavior that the publisher must verify and disclose. The Privacy Policy explains that boundary.
