PRIVACY PROTOCOL • LAST REVISED JANUARY 2026

Cookie & Local Storage Policy

Detailed transparency regarding our minimal, privacy-centric use of cookies and local storage tokens on Feedflickteamtons.forum.

1. Principles of Minimalist Storage

At Feedflickteamtons, we believe in definite planning and structural simplicity. Unlike bloated commercial websites that load hundreds of surveillance tracking pixels, third-party social beacons, and programmatic retargeters, our platform operates on a strictly disciplined, privacy-respecting foundation.

Cookies and local storage keys are utilized exclusively to remember your interface preferences, ensure session stability, and safeguard our server endpoints against brute-force attacks.

2. Categorization of Storage Mechanisms

The table below discloses every cookie and local browser storage entity that may be set when you visit feedflickteamtons.forum:

Identifier Classification Purpose Storage Duration
feedflick_cookie_choice Essential (Local Storage) Stores the visitor's choice ("accept", "reject", or "preferences") to suppress the banner on subsequent visits. Persistent (until manually cleared)
__cf_bm / __sec_tk Essential (Cookie) Mitigates malicious automated scrapers and ensures DDOS mitigation at edge gateways. 30 minutes to 24 hours
ff_session_pref Functional (Cookie) Preserves interactive state inside strategic tools (such as the 7 Questions diagnostic calculator). Session (purged on browser exit)
_pk_ref / _pk_id Analytics (Optional Cookie) First-party, privacy-preserving, self-hosted telemetry with IP masking enabled to calculate aggregate readership numbers. 13 months (if accepted)

3. Detailed Breakdown of Categories

A. Strictly Essential Storage

These storage keys are strictly required for the website to function properly. Without them, page navigation, security handshakes, and preference persistence cannot execute. Under applicable European and UK privacy directives (ePrivacy Directive & GDPR Art. 6(1)(f)), these do not require prior consent.

B. Functional & Preference Storage

These enable enhanced functionality, such as remembering your selections within our diagnostic calculators and ensuring responsive layout stability across viewports. If disabled, certain interactive tools may reset upon navigation.

C. First-Party Performance Metrics

Where opted into, we collect anonymized telemetry that evaluates which strategy chapters are read most thoroughly. We do not transmit this data to advertising networks, and IP addresses are truncated before reaching our analytics database.
