The short version. The fairyfox.io hub uses no cookies — none at all, and no tracking. It saves your reading preferences and your Fairy Fox coins in your browser’s local storage so the Site can remember them. That data stays on your device and is never sent to us.
This Cookies Policy explains how the fairyfox.io site (“the Site”) uses cookies and similar storage technologies. It applies to the hub and documentation library at fairyfox.io. Linked projects have their own policies.
We do not use cookies
The Site sets no cookies. There are no analytics cookies, no advertising or remarketing cookies, no third-party tracking cookies, and no session cookies. Because there are no non-essential cookies, there is nothing to consent to and no cookie banner to click through.
What we use instead: local storage
To remember your reading and display preferences (the “Aa” reading menu’s theme, accent colour, text size, line spacing, and width) and your Fairy Fox coins (a small reading-engagement counter — your coin balance plus a record of which pages you have opened today), the Site uses your browser’s local storage. This is similar to a cookie in that it is saved in your browser, but unlike a cookie it is never automatically sent to any server — it simply lets the Site remember how you like to read and how many coins you have the next time you visit. These values are saved under shared keys so one choice and one coin balance carry across the same-origin fairyfox.io site in the same browser. The information stays on your device; we never receive it. For more, see our Privacy Policy.
Third-party requests
The Site loads its typefaces from Google Fonts and its icon font from cdnjs (Cloudflare). Those requests deliver files to your browser and expose your IP address to those providers, as described in our Privacy Policy; they set no cookies on our behalf and carry no tracking on our behalf. The Site embeds no ad networks, analytics scripts, or social widgets. The only other third party involved is our hosting provider (GitHub Pages), which processes basic request data to deliver the site.
Managing local storage
We provide an easy way to clear or reset your data: the reading menu has a Reset and the coins panel has a Clear my data link. You can also clear the data the Site stores at any time by clearing your browser’s site data / local storage for the Site. Your browser’s help pages explain how (for example, Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge). Note that clearing it also resets your saved preferences and coins.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookies Policy as the Site changes. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above. If we ever introduce cookies or analytics, we will update this page first and obtain consent where the law requires it.
