1. Understand browser storage
Treat cookies as small text files placed on your device by a website, and treat local storage as a related browser feature that can remember values between visits. Understand that this static site currently uses local storage to remember your cookie-banner choice. Clear that value whenever you want the banner to appear again.
Expect essential storage to support preference management and basic security where hosting infrastructure requires it. Expect optional analytics or functional tools to remain inactive unless they are introduced transparently and, where required, you provide consent. Review this page after updates, then reconsider your choice if categories change.
2. Review the categories
| Category | Name or example | Purpose | Duration | Default |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Essential | clipscout_cookie_choice | Stores whether you accepted, rejected or reviewed cookie preferences. | Until browser storage is cleared | Active |
| Essential | Hosting security records | Supports traffic delivery, abuse prevention and service integrity where the host uses them. | Session or provider-defined security period | Active where required |
| Analytics | Aggregate audience measurement | Would measure page use and performance without being necessary for core access. | Up to 13 months if introduced | Inactive |
| Functional | Display or itinerary preferences | Would remember optional interface choices or saved planning features. | Up to 12 months if introduced | Inactive |
3. Choose through the banner
Select “Accept All” to record permission for optional categories if they become available under the choices described at that time. Select “Reject Non-Essential” to permit only storage required for core operation and your choice record. Select “Preferences” to record a preferences review and continue with non-essential storage rejected on this version of the site, then use browser controls for additional management.
Understand that the banner choice is stored only in the browser and device where you make it. Repeat your selection on other browsers, private sessions or devices, then update each separately when needed.
4. Remove storage in your browser
In Chrome, open Settings, choose Privacy and security, open Third-party cookies or Site data, then search for this domain and delete its stored data. In Firefox, open Settings, choose Privacy & Security, select Manage Data under Cookies and Site Data, then remove this domain. In Safari, open Settings or Preferences, choose Privacy, select Manage Website Data, then remove this site.
In Microsoft Edge, open Settings, choose Cookies and site permissions, select Manage and delete cookies and site data, then view all site data and remove this domain. On mobile browsers, use the equivalent privacy or website-data menu because wording may differ by operating-system version. Restart or reload the site after clearing storage, then make a new banner choice.
5. Block optional technologies
Use browser settings to block third-party cookies, send recognised privacy signals or remove stored site data. Understand that strict blocking may affect preference memory but should not prevent you from reading the editorial guides. Keep your browser updated, then consult its official support documentation for current instructions.
Use content-blocking or privacy extensions only after reviewing their permissions and publisher. Avoid installing unknown software solely to manage cookies, then remove extensions that request excessive access.
6. Review third-party content
Expect externally hosted images or linked third-party pages to operate under their providers’ policies once requested or visited. Understand that following a link leaves our site and may permit that provider to use its own cookies. Review the destination policy before accepting its settings, then return to our site using your browser controls.
