Reading is available without optional memory.
The fictional reconciliation exercise keeps choices only in the current page. It does not save or send them. A separate optional feature remembers article reading positions after you choose it.
Open cookie settings to review or withdraw the choice.
Reading-feature storage
- alr_privacy_v1 · first-party cookie
- Records preference version, reading choice and timestamp after a deliberate saved choice. Maximum 180 days, scoped to this website path. A later choice replaces it; browser site-data controls can remove it.
- alr_reading_v1 · localStorage
- Optional article paths, reading positions and timestamps. Initialized only after reading-position consent, including an empty record on non-article pages. Entries at least 180 days old are ignored when read. Expired entries are removed on the next saved reading-position write, where browser access permits; each such write saves at most 30 records. Reading alone does not rewrite localStorage. Rejecting or disabling the option attempts to remove the record. Unused localStorage may remain until a later saved reading-position write, rejection or removal through browser controls.
- Fictional case and evidence selections
- Current-page memory only. The practice exercise does not persist these inputs; Reset choices removes them from the current page.
Other website technologies
The practice exercise and reading controls do not include analytics, advertising tags or third-party media players. Other WordPress plugins, embedded content and hosting services can operate separately. Reading-preference controls govern only the reading feature; they do not control those services or establish a complete inventory of the website.
WordPress sign-in and administration may use separate authentication cookies for signed-in users. These reading controls do not remove authentication cookies, email, server logs or records at linked websites. This list describes reading-feature storage and any additional details the publisher has supplied.
Equal choices
The first-visit notice offers Accept optional, Reject optional and Settings with equal visual treatment. Optional reading memory is off until selected. Reopen settings from the footer on any page. Rejecting or withdrawing attempts to remove this publication’s reading record, not unrelated website data.
When storage is unavailable
Optional memory stays off if the browser cannot save the preference. Articles and the text practice cases remain usable. Private mode or clearing site data may remove a saved choice and show the notice again.
Scope
The controls apply to the reading feature described here, not external websites or email services. The Privacy Policy explains website delivery and correspondence.
