Cookie & Browser Storage Policy

Effective Date: November 5, 2026 • Operator: Laurentia Headframe Editorial Lab (Vancouver, BC)

INSTANT CONSENT MANAGEMENT:

You retain complete control over how laurentiaheadframe.com stores preferences in your browser. By default, all non-essential telemetry signals (`analytics_storage`, `ad_storage`, `ad_user_data`, and `ad_personalization`) are initialized to denied until you make an explicit choice.

1. How We Use Browser Storage & Cookies

Cookies are small text tokens placed on your device by websites you visit, while HTML5 `localStorage` is a modern client-side browser storage mechanism that stores key-value preferences locally inside your browser without transmitting them on every HTTP request. At laurentiaheadframe.com, we prioritize local browser storage so your interface preferences remain fast and private.

2. Google Consent Mode v2 Implementation

Our portal implements Google Consent Mode v2 in the document header. Prior to any user interaction with our consent banner, our system enforces the following baseline state:

  • analytics_storage: 'denied' — Prevents analytical telemetry cookies until explicitly enabled;
  • ad_storage: 'denied' — Prevents advertising storage tokens;
  • ad_user_data: 'denied' — Blocks transmission of user-level data for promotional measurement;
  • ad_personalization: 'denied' — Disables personalized profile signals.

When you click "Accept All", "Essential Only", or "Save Selected Preferences" in our Cookie Settings modal, our script records your timestamped choice in `localStorage` under the key ltd_cookie_consent_v1 and dispatches a `gtag('consent', 'update', ...)` signal matching your exact selection.

3. Inventory of Storage Tokens Used on This Portal

Token / Key Name Storage Type Category Duration Technical Purpose
ltd_cookie_consent_v1 HTML5 localStorage Strictly Necessary 12 Months Stores your granular Consent Mode v2 selections (necessary, functional, analytics) so the banner does not reappear on every page view.
ltd_active_genre HTML5 sessionStorage Functional UI Session Remembers your last selected genre filter tab (e.g., Strategy, Sandbox & Logic, MMORPG) while navigating the 9-game catalog.
_ga / _ga_* First-Party Cookie Performance Telemetry (Optional) Up to 13 Months Only active if you explicitly enable Aggregated Performance Telemetry; measures anonymous page load timing and catalog engagement.

4. Managing Cookies in Your Web Browser

In addition to our built-in Consent Mode preferences panel, you can clear or block cookies and `localStorage` data at any time through your browser settings (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Microsoft Edge). Note that clearing browser storage will reset your saved Consent Mode choice and cause the cookie banner to appear again on your next visit.
