Cookie & Local Storage Policy

Transparent Technical Storage Disclosure

Essential Functional Storage Only

Zero Third-Party Advertising Cookies

Hoesit uses local storage exclusively for critical functionality (keeping you logged in and remembering your visual theme settings). We never deploy third-party advertising cookies, Facebook tracking pixels, or cross-site fingerprinting beacons.

1. What We Store Locally & Why

Authentication Session: A secure token stored in your browser's local storage or app keychain so you stay logged in seamlessly.
Theme & Appearance: Remembers your chosen color scheme (Dark mode, Light mode, Cyberpunk, Emerald, etc.).
Temporary Directory Cache: Caches recently viewed local businesses so pages load lightning fast and consume less mobile data.

2. What We NEVER Use

❌ NO Meta / Facebook Tracking Pixels.
❌ NO Cross-Site Tracking Beacons.
❌ NO Google Advertising Ad-Sense trackers.
❌ NO Third-party data brokering scripts.

3. How You Can Manage Your Storage

You have full autonomy over stored data:

In the App: Tapping Settings > Log Out instantly clears your session authentication keys.
In your Web Browser: You can clear cookies and local site data at any time via your browser settings (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge).
