Cookies Policy & browser storage

1. What are cookies and local storage?

Cookies are small data values that websites may store in your browser. Depending on their purpose, they can support logins, security, preferences or analytics.

Local storage is a separate browser feature that lets a website remember information on your device without creating an HTTP cookie. Browsers usually retain local storage until it is cleared or removed by the browser or user.

Applicable privacy and cookie rules can cover both cookies and similar device-storage technologies.

2. How ToolQuarry saves favorite tools

The ToolQuarry homepage includes a Save Tool option on directory cards. When you select a heart icon, the homepage stores selected tool identifiers in your browser using the following local storage key:

tf-saved-tools-v3

This lets the Saved filter remember your choices if you revisit ToolQuarry in the same browser. The saved list is not automatically synced between devices, browsers or accounts.

This preference is separate from cookies that WordPress or other installed services may use.

3. Browser storage overview

The table below distinguishes a known ToolQuarry preference from storage that may exist depending on the website configuration. It should not be treated as a complete live cookie audit.

4. WordPress, Elementor and third-party services

ToolQuarry is hosted using WordPress and Elementor. Depending on the installed theme, plugins, hosting and embedded services, additional cookies or similar technologies may be used for security, sessions, performance or other functions.

The page design also requests font resources from Google Fonts, which involves a connection to an external provider. A font request alone is not proof that a particular cookie is stored.

Cookie names, service providers, purposes and expiry periods should be confirmed through a live-site cookie and network audit before publishing a definitive cookie list.

5. Optional cookies and consent

Where required by applicable law, non-essential cookies and similar technologies should not be activated before valid consent. Users may also need a practical way to withdraw or change their choices.

Important: This page is an explanation of storage and does not operate as a cookie consent banner or block third-party scripts. If ToolQuarry enables optional analytics, advertising or tracking, a suitable consent-management setup may be required.

Clearing saved favorites below affects only the known local storage entry, not advertising preferences or other services' cookies.

6. Manage saved ToolQuarry favorites

You can remove the favorite-tool list stored by the ToolQuarry homepage on this device. Doing so will reset the Saved tools filter in this browser after the homepage reloads.

7. How to manage cookies in your browser

Most browsers let you inspect or remove site-specific cookies and local storage in their privacy or site-data settings. Menu names can vary with browser version.

• Chrome: Open Settings → Privacy and security → Site settings or Site data.
• Firefox: Open Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data.
• Safari: Open Settings → Privacy → Manage Website Data (where available).
• Microsoft Edge: Open Settings → Privacy, search and services, or Cookies and site permissions.

Blocking or deleting some data can affect saved preferences, sign-in sessions and website functionality.

8. Policy changes and contact

ToolQuarry may update this policy when tools, plugins, hosting settings or third-party services change. The date at the top indicates the most recent content revision.
