Cookie Policy

This policy outlines how Royal Theme uses local storage and aggregated analytics to maintain website functionality and understand site traffic.

Last Updated: August 26, 2026

1. What Are Cookies and Local Storage?

Cookies and browser local storage are standard web technologies that store small pieces of data directly on your device when you browse a website.

Local Storage: A modern web storage mechanism that saves simple preference values directly inside your browser without sending them in server headers on every page request.

Cookies: Small text files placed on your device to support session integrity and technical routing across visits.

2. Technologies We Use

Royal Theme keeps data storage minimal and strictly functional. We do not use third-party advertising cookies, cross-site trackers, or marketing pixels. The technologies we use are:

Essential Local Storage (Functional)

We store your cookie consent selection (cookie-consent) so we do not repeatedly display the banner on future visits, and store recent search queries (recentSearches) in the showcase search bar for your convenience.

Aggregated Web Analytics

We use privacy-conscious analytics (Vercel Web Analytics and internal aggregate page tracking) to record aggregate metrics such as total page visits and general device categories. This data helps us improve site performance without creating individualized tracking profiles.

3. Local Storage

Unlike tracking cookies, data saved in browser local storage remains exclusively on your device. We use local storage for:

  • Consent Status: Remembering whether you accepted or declined analytics cookies.
  • Showcase Search History: Storing recent search filters entered during your session to streamline browsing.

Local storage items do not track your activity across unrelated websites.

4. Managing Your Preferences

You can manage or change your storage preferences at any time using the controls below or through your browser settings:

Browser Settings: You can also delete stored cookies and local storage through your browser's privacy settings (e.g., Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or Edge).

5. Data Retention for Storage

Consent decisions and search preferences saved in local storage remain on your device until you clear your browser data or use the reset button above. Aggregated analytics logs are retained in accordance with standard web infrastructure logging schedules.

6. Policy Updates & Contact

We may update this Cookie Policy periodically to reflect technological adjustments or operational updates. When revisions occur, the updated date at the top of this page will be revised.
