Cookie Policy
Last updated: March 21, 2026
We don't use cookies. At all. We use localStorage for a few things, and you can clear it anytime. That's the whole policy.
1. Cookies: We Don't Use Them
naviwork.tools does not set, read, or rely on any browser cookies — first-party or third-party. There is no cookie banner on our site because there are no cookies to consent to.
If you inspect your browser's cookie storage for naviwork.tools, you will find it empty. If you find a cookie, something unexpected has happened, and we would appreciate you letting us know.
2. What We Use Instead: localStorage
Some features on naviwork.tools use your browser's localStorage API. localStorage is different from cookies in important ways:
- localStorage data is never sent to any server with HTTP requests
- It stays entirely on your device
- It cannot be read by any other website
- It persists until you clear it (it does not expire automatically)
What we store in localStorage
| Key | Purpose | Data Stored |
|---|---|---|
nw_email |
Email subscription opt-in | Your email address (only if you voluntarily subscribe) |
nw_email_dismissed |
Remember signup dismissal | Boolean flag so we stop showing the email prompt |
| Tool-specific keys | Save your preferences and work | Varies by tool (e.g., saved inputs, theme choice, recent values) |
3. How to Clear localStorage
You can clear all naviwork.tools localStorage data at any time. Here are three ways:
Option A: Browser Console
Open your browser's developer tools (F12 or Cmd+Option+I), go to the Console tab, and run:
localStorage.clear()
Option B: Browser Settings
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy & Security → Clear Browsing Data → check "Cookies and other site data" (this also clears localStorage)
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Clear Data → check "Cookies and Site Data"
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data → find naviwork.tools → Remove
Option C: DevTools Application Tab
Open DevTools (F12), go to the Application tab (Chrome/Edge) or Storage tab (Firefox), expand Local Storage, select https://naviwork.tools, and delete individual keys or clear all.
4. Third-Party Cookies
We do not use any third-party cookies. We do not embed:
- Advertising networks
- Social media tracking pixels
- Analytics services that use cookies
- Chat widgets or support tools that set cookies
We do load Google Fonts and CDN-hosted JavaScript libraries. Google Fonts does not set cookies. CDN providers may log standard HTTP request data (IP address, timestamp, requested file) but do not set cookies on our domain.
5. Future Changes
If we ever add features that require cookies (such as third-party advertising, analytics, or authentication), we will:
- Update this Cookie Policy before deploying any cookies
- Add a cookie consent mechanism where required by law
- Clearly identify what each cookie does, who sets it, and how long it persists
Until then, enjoy a cookie-free browsing experience.
