Cookies Policy
Factual details of browser storage usage
What are Cookies?
Cookies are small text documents stored directly on your computer's browser storage when viewing sites online. They help track and record navigation patterns. Local Storage parameters allow our platform to remember technical selection events across distinct browsing subpages.
How We Use Cookies & Local Storage
We employ a minimal, security-first cookies framework that prioritizes user speed and strictly avoids aggressive cross-site ad retargeting scripts:
- Essential Security & Preference Cookies (Strictly Necessary): These are required to process the fundamental navigation menu actions, maintain high contrast responsive rendering, and securely log your cookie preference choices. These do not transmit personal data.
- Aggregate Performance Markers (Optional): We run lightweight technical tracking scripts to compile overall page popularity metrics, path interaction rates, and browser scaling parameters. This strictly aggregates user metrics without tracing user identities.
Complete Technical Inventory
The table below maps the specific system tokens and browser elements used across the Quanttclickatlas platform:
| Cookie / Token Identifier | Type / Source | Standard Lifespan | Operational Intent |
|---|---|---|---|
| quanttclickatlas_consent | First-Party LocalStorage | 365 Days | Registers and locks your cookie banner selection choices (Accept All vs. Essential Only). |
| sec_session_token | First-Party Session Cookie | Immediate on tab close | Mitigates cross-site scripting attacks and monitors continuous header navigation requests. |
| _qca_performance_id | Analytical Aggregator | 30 Days | Tracks non-identifying page viewport dimensions and download durations to aid mobile CSS performance. |
How to Manage and Disable Cookies in Your Browser
Aside from the custom controls built directly into our interactive consent banner overlay, you can restrict, inspect, delete, or completely block browser cookies via your global web browser controls:
1. Google Chrome
Go to Settings > Privacy and Security > Third-Party Cookies. Here, you can block all cookies, choose to delete cookie sets upon closing the tab, or inspect active site identifiers.
2. Apple Safari
Navigate to Preferences > Privacy. Select "Prevent cross-site tracking" and check "Block all cookies" to ensure complete isolation of your browsing session.
3. Mozilla Firefox
Access Settings > Privacy & Security. Under the "Enhanced Tracking Protection" heading, select either the Standard or Strict configuration to manage dynamic trackers and security scripts.
4. Microsoft Edge
Go to Settings > Cookies and Site Permissions > Manage and Delete Cookies and Site Data. Toggle options for third-party scripts and review individual local storage files.
Policy Modifications
We reserve the right to modify this Cookies Policy structure if new technical navigation features are deployed. If modifications occur, the fixed revision date listed in the terms will be updated.
