1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites can use to remember information between visits, such as login state or preferences. This site is a static front-end demonstration and does not set any tracking or analytics cookies.
2. Types of Cookies Explained
For reference, cookies are generally grouped into a few categories: session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser; persistent cookies, which remain until they expire or are deleted; first-party cookies, set by the site you are visiting; and third-party cookies, set by an external service embedded on the page. None of these categories are currently used by this demonstration site.
3. What We Use Instead
Some interactive features, such as the recent searches list and the MOT preparation checklist, hold information temporarily in your browser's memory for the current page session only. This data is cleared automatically when you close or refresh the page, and is never written to a persistent cookie or transmitted to a server.
4. Local Storage and Session Storage
Where interface state needs to persist briefly during your visit, it is kept using in-memory browser variables rather than persistent local storage. This means that unlike many production websites, this project does not rely on the browser's localStorage or sessionStorage APIs to remember your activity between visits.
5. Third-Party Fonts
This site loads typefaces from Google Fonts, which may set its own cookies or collect connection data such as your IP address according to its own policy when the font files are requested. We encourage you to review Google's privacy documentation for details on how font requests are handled.
6. Analytics
This demonstration site does not currently use any analytics or advertising cookies, and no visitor behaviour is tracked across pages or sessions. If analytics were added to a live version of this project, this section would be updated to describe the specific tools used and the data they collect.
7. Managing Preferences
Because no persistent cookies are set by this demonstration site, there is nothing to opt out of. If this project is extended into a live product, a full cookie consent mechanism — including the ability to accept or reject non-essential cookies — should be added before introducing tracking technologies.
8. Browser Controls
Most browsers allow you to view, manage, and delete cookies through their settings menu, and to block cookies from specific sites. Since this site does not rely on cookies for its core functionality, blocking cookies in your browser will not affect how this demonstration works.
9. Changes to This Policy
Any future changes to how this site uses cookies or storage will be reflected on this page, with an updated revision date shown at the top of this document.
