Browser Storage Policy
We value your privacy and want to be clear about how LactSafe uses browser‑based storage. This policy explains what information we keep in your browser, why we keep it, and how you can control it. By using LactSafe, you agree to the practices described below.
1. What We Store
We store two pieces of information in your browser's LocalStorage:
userStatus- Records whether you've selected "Pregnant," "Breastfeeding," or "Both" inside the app.userOptedIn- Records whether you've seen and responded to our terms of service and medical disclaimer. This includes whether you've opted in (accepted) or declined.
2. Why We Store It
User Status:
- To remember your chosen profile so you don't have to re‑select it each visit.
- To instantly tailor medicine safety summaries to the correct stage (pregnancy or lactation).
- To improve overall user experience without asking for any personal identifiers.
Opt-In Status:
- To track whether you've reviewed and acknowledged our Terms of Use and Medical & Legal Disclaimer.
- To remember your consent choice so we don't repeatedly ask for your consent.
- To restrict access to certain features if you've declined to accept our terms (while still allowing access to our policy and disclaimer pages).
3. Storage Type & Duration
LocalStorage is a form of client‑side storage that remains on your device until you clear it. The data is not automatically sent to our servers and is not included with network requests. We do not use tracking cookies, analytics cookies, or third‑party cookies.
4. Your Control
- You can reset your opt-in status by clearing site data through your browser.
- Clear site data via your browser's privacy/settings panel. Look for "Site Data," "Cookies and Other Data," or "LocalStorage."
5. Data Security
The stored values contain no personally identifying information. The data never leaves your device unless you manually export or share it. The opt-in data only records whether you've accepted our terms and disclaimer, not any personal details.
6. Policy Changes
We may update this Browser Storage Policy as we add features or storage needs. Any changes will be posted here with a revised "Last updated" date.
