1. What Are Cookies and Local Storage?
Cookies and local browser storage are lightweight files and key-value records saved directly onto your device when you load our web application. They allow the website to recognize your browser state across page navigations and remember whether you have already dismissed consent notices.

3. Non-Deployment of Behavioral Ad Trackers
Pickbeaconrout enforces a strict clean-code policy. We do not load Google AdSense, Meta Pixel, TikTok remarketing tags, or third-party canvas fingerprinting scripts. Your browsing habits within this catalog are not packaged or monetized across advertising exchanges.
4. How to Manage and Erase Cookies in Your Browser
You retain complete autonomy to wipe or block cookies through your individual browser preferences at any moment:
- Apple Safari: Navigate to Settings > Safari > Privacy & Security > Block All Cookies.
- Google Chrome: Open Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and other site data.
- Mozilla Firefox: Access Settings > Privacy & Security > Enhanced Tracking Protection > Custom.
- Microsoft Edge: Go to Settings > Cookies and site permissions > Manage and delete cookies.
Note: Disabling all local storage will cause our cookie preference banner to reappear upon subsequent page visits, as the browser will be unable to remember your dismissal choice.
