Cookie & Local Storage Policy

Last Updated: September 22, 2026

1. Overview & Privacy-First Philosophy

BizBop ("we," "us," or "our") operates on an architectural principle of radical data privacy. Our entire suite of 31 developer, SEO, and content tools processes all computations 100% locally within your browser using JavaScript and HTML5 APIs. We do not use cookies or local storage to spy on your online behavior, construct advertising dossiers, or identify you personally.

🔒 Zero Tracking Guarantee: BizBop sets zero invasive tracking cookies, zero third-party cross-site trackers, and zero server-side surveillance sessions. Any local data saved resides exclusively inside your personal browser.

2. What Are Cookies and Local Storage?

Cookies are small text files stored on your computer or mobile device by websites you visit. Similar technologies like HTML5 localStorage and sessionStorage allow websites to store key-value pairs directly in your browser without transmitting them across the network on every HTTP request.

At BizBop, we primarily leverage native browser localStorage rather than traditional HTTP cookies, which prevents unnecessary network data transfer and keeps your data strictly local to your device.

3. The Exact Storage Keys BizBop Uses

Below is the complete, transparent inventory of all client-side storage keys utilized by BizBop:

Key / Name Mechanism Purpose Lifespan
bizbop_theme localStorage Stores your visual theme preference (Light mode or Dark mode) so the site loads in your preferred theme. Persistent (until cleared)
bizbop_cookie_consent localStorage Remembers whether you have acknowledged our privacy and cookie banner, avoiding recurring banners. Persistent (until cleared)
Tool State (e.g. active tab) sessionStorage Temporarily stores active interface tabs (such as Single vs. Bulk mode) during an active browser session. Session only (cleared on tab close)

4. Advertising and Third-Party Placeholders

To sustain free access to our tools, BizBop features designated sponsorship and advertisement zones located in the sidebar. Currently, sponsorship slots are served as static SVG/HTML creatives hosted directly on our site without tracking scripts.

If third-party advertising networks (such as Google AdSense) or analytics services are activated in the future, they may employ their own standard cookies to serve relevant advertisements. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting the Google Ads Settings or AboutAds Choices.

5. Managing and Clearing Storage

You maintain total control over all stored data on your device. You can view, disable, or delete cookies and local storage items at any time through your browser settings:

  • Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data → See all site data and permissions.
  • Mozilla Firefox: Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data → Manage Data.
  • Apple Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data.
  • Microsoft Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies and site data.

Clearing your storage will simply reset your theme preference to the default light theme and display the acknowledgment banner on your next visit. None of your tool results are affected because tool operations are ephemeral.

6. Updates to This Policy

We may periodically update this Cookie Policy to reflect technical enhancements or statutory updates. Any revisions will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this document. Continued use of BizBop signifies your understanding and acceptance of these terms.

7. Contact & Questions
