Cookie Policy

Last updated: May 2, 2026

1. How We Store Data

online-radio.directory is designed to offer a privacy-first experience. As such, we primarily utilize Web Local Storage (localStorage) rather than traditional HTTP cookies to remember your preferences. This allows us to keep your data exclusively within your browser without continuously sending it to our servers.

2. Local Storage Usage

We use local storage for essential features of the app, which do not track you across other websites. These include:

• Saving your "Favourites" list of stations.
• Remembering your "Recently Played" history for quick access.
• Storing your initial genre/mood selections (Onboarding preferences).
• Saving your UI theme choice (Light / Dark mode).

3. Technical and Session Cookies

We may use temporary session cookies that are strictly necessary for the technical operation of the website, such as managing secure connections or preventing abuse of our forms. These do not contain personally identifiable information.

4. Third-Party Embeds and Services

While we do not run third-party advertising trackers, some elements of our site (such as embedded players on other sites, or optional social sharing widgets) may set their own cookies if you interact with them. We do not control these cookies.

5. How to Manage Your Data

Since the majority of your data is kept in your browser's local storage, you have full control over it. You can clear this data at any time by:

• Going to your browser's Privacy or Site Settings.
• Clearing your browsing data (select "Cookies and other site data").

Please note that clearing local storage will reset your Favourites, Recently Played history, and theme preferences.
