1. What Are Cookies and Local Storage?
Cookies are compact text files placed upon your computer or mobile device when you browse websites. Similar storage mechanisms (such as HTML5 `localStorage`) allow web applications to remember your display preferences, maintain security tokens, and optimize 3D WebGL graphics performance across sessions without requiring repeated server re-authentication.
2. Classification of Cookies Deployed
Temponest Studio categorizes tracking mechanisms into three distinct operational classifications:
| Cookie / Key Name | Category | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
temponest_cookie_consent |
Strictly Essential | Remembers your consent choice so the bottom cookie notice does not continuously re-appear. | 12 Months (LocalStorage) |
__tn_webgl_caps |
Functional | Stores client GPU hardware support flags to tailor 3D canvas particle counts and render speeds. | Session Only |
_tn_stadium_ref |
Analytics | Aggregated anonymized page tracking measuring visitor engagement across architectural ground dossiers. | 30 Days |
