Cookie & Storage Policy
We believe in straightforward, lean web technology. Here is an exhaustive breakdown of what small data tokens we place in your browser and why we keep tracking scripts to an absolute minimum.
1. What Are Cookies and Local Storage?
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer, tablet, or smartphone by websites you visit. Similar technologies include HTML5 Local Storage and Session Storage, which allow websites to save stateful parameters locally within your browser client.
On rankdshpurepixel.yachts, we minimize the use of cookie technologies. We do not embed ad-retargeting beacons, cross-site social tracking widgets, or third-party behavioral analytics profiling engines.
2. How and Why We Use Storage
We use storage strictly to deliver core technical functions:
- Session Preservation: Ensuring menu states and accessibility focus behave properly as you move between operational modules.
- Consent Management: Remembering your cookie selection tier so you are not confronted with an intrusive popup banner on every new page load.
- Form Interaction States: Preventing double submissions on contact enquiry forms.
