This Cookie Policy explains how Wambesha uses cookies and similar technologies. We believe in being transparent about data practices and keeping cookie usage to the minimum needed for the Service to work.

We do not use any third-party tracking cookies or analytics services. All cookies are first-party and either essential or functional.

In addition to cookies, we use browser localStorage for:

• wambesh_cookie_notice_dismissed— records that you've acknowledged the cookie notice banner. Stored permanently in your browser and never sent to our servers.

Guest fingerprinting— for unauthenticated visitors, we create a pseudonymous device identifier by hashing browser attributes (screen size, timezone, language, platform) with SHA-256. This hash is stored in Redis with a 35-day TTL and used only for counting unique visitors. It can't identify you personally and isn't linked to any account.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings. Keep in mind that disabling essential cookies will prevent you from signing in to Wambesha. The PREFERRED_LOCALE cookie is optional — if removed, we'll detect your language from your browser settings.

To clear the cookie notice acknowledgment, delete the wambesh_cookie_notice_dismissed entry from your browser's localStorage via developer tools (Application → Local Storage).
