What Are Cookies and Local Storage?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your web browser. Local storage is a similar technology that allows websites to store data locally in your browser. Both help websites function and, in some cases, remember your preferences.

This website uses cookies and local storage only when necessary. We do not use tracking cookies before you give consent.

How We Use Cookies

We categorize the cookies and storage technologies we use into four groups. You can manage your preferences at any time by clicking Cookie settings in the footer.

Essential (Required)

Required for the website to function. These cannot be disabled and do not track you across sites.

Status: active

Examples: Cookie consent preference storage; Site mode / landing page detection (build-time); Form functionality (when enabled)

Retention: Consent preference: 12 months. Session cookies: duration of visit.

Provider notes: Stored locally in your browser. No third-party essential cookies are currently used.

Analytics

Helps us understand how visitors use our site so we can improve it. Collects anonymous usage data only.

Status: planned

Examples: Page view statistics; Referrer tracking; Device/browser type aggregation

Retention: [To be determined when provider is selected]

Provider notes: No analytics provider is currently configured. When enabled, we will use a privacy-focused provider (e.g., Plausible, Fathom, or Cloudflare Web Analytics).

Media & Embeds

Allows embedded video content (e.g., demo videos) from third-party platforms. These platforms may set their own cookies.

Status: planned

Examples: YouTube / Vimeo embed cookies; Video player preferences

Retention: [To be determined when media embeds are added]

Provider notes: No media embeds are currently active. When demo videos are added, we will use privacy-enhanced embed modes where available.

Marketing

Used for advertising, retargeting, and marketing campaign measurement.

Status: not-used

Examples: Advertising pixels; Retargeting cookies; Social media conversion tracking

Retention: Not applicable — category not used.

Provider notes: Total Chaos does not use marketing cookies. If this changes in the future, explicit opt-in will be required.

Managing Your Preferences

When you first visit our website, you will see a small banner at the bottom of the screen asking for your cookie preferences. You can:

  • Allow optional cookies — enables analytics and media embeds.
  • Reject optional cookies — keeps only essential cookies active.
  • Customize — choose exactly which optional categories you want.

You can change your preferences at any time by clicking Cookie settings in the footer.

Withdrawing Consent

If you previously allowed optional cookies, you can withdraw that consent at any time through the cookie settings panel. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing that occurred before withdrawal.

No Optional Tracking Before Consent

We do not load analytics scripts, media embeds, or marketing pixels before you explicitly consent. The website is fully functional with only essential cookies.

EU/EEA-First Provider Preference

If we enable analytics or other optional services in the future, we will prefer EU/EEA-based providers with strong privacy practices (e.g., Plausible, Matomo self-hosted). See our Subprocessors & Vendors page for candidates under evaluation.

We do not use Google Analytics or similar non-EU tracking tools by default.
