Cookie Policy
Effective Date: January 1, 2026 | Document Reference: CKI-ATLAS-2026-V1
1. Definition and Function of Cookies
Cookies are small plaintext files deposited in your browser's local cache by web servers. They permit websites to recognize user preferences, maintain session security, and load optimized stylesheets.
The educational reference platform at socialsprsortboard.asia operates with minimal telemetry. We do not inject behavioral ad cookies, marketing pixels, or third-party social tracking beacons into your client device.
2. Classification of Storage Items Utilized
We distinguish between technical categories of browser storage based on functional necessity:
- Essential Storage: Strictly required to remember consent preferences and preserve security headers. These cannot be disabled without compromising basic site display.
- Functional Storage: Remembers your active session selections, such as high-contrast font choices or collapsed reference drawers.
- Analytical Metrics: Non-identifying, aggregated traffic indicators processed in local sessions to determine which catalog chapters receive visitor attention.

4. Managing and Disabling Cookies via Browser Settings
You possess full mechanical control over stored tokens through your browser settings. You can delete existing cookies, block third-party trackers completely, or instruct your browser to notify you before accepting storage tokens.
Instructions for common browsers:

- Apple Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Select "Prevent cross-site tracking" and "Block all cookies".

Note: Disabling all local storage will cause our consent interface to reappear upon every page refresh, as your choice cannot be stored without local storage permissions.
