What we store on your device. And what you can do about it.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by websites you visit. They allow the site to remember your actions and preferences so you don't have to re-enter them each time you visit.
We also use similar technologies — local storage, session storage, and pixel tags — that serve comparable purposes. Throughout this policy, "cookies" means all of these.
We distinguish between first-party cookies (set by coastalcorridor.co) and third-party cookies (set by other domains). We use very few third-party cookies and none for advertising purposes.
