Cookies
The site sets no cookies. Four keys in local storage remember your theme, your package manager, recent searches and the catalogue view.
Pre-launch draft: written, not reviewed by a lawyer.
The short answer
This site sets no cookies. Not analytics cookies, not functional ones, not any. There is no consent banner because there is nothing to consent to.
Four things are remembered in your browser’s local storage, and none of them leaves your device.
What is stored
| Key | What it holds | When it is written | How long |
|---|---|---|---|
gr-theme | light or dark | When you use the theme switch | Until you clear site data |
gr-pm | npm, pnpm, yarn or bun | When you pick a tab in an install snippet | Until you clear site data |
gr-search-recent | Up to five of your latest search queries | When you open a search result | Until you clear site data |
gr-catalogue-view | grid or list | When you switch the component catalogue between grid and list | Until you clear site data |
gr-stage-bg | grid, plain or card | When you pick the stage background on a component page | Until you clear site data |
Local storage is not a cookie. It is never sent to a server — not with page requests, not with anything else. We cannot read it; only the page running in your browser can, and it uses it for exactly the three purposes above.
Recent queries stay with you: the hint shown on an empty search field is built from that list, and clearing site data removes it entirely.
Why the theme is not a cookie
The site is static: pages are built ahead of time and there is no server that could read a cookie before rendering. The theme is applied by a small script before the first paint, and that script reads local storage. A cookie here would be a third storage with no consumer.
Why the language is not stored either
The language is part of the address: /docs/installation is English,
/ru/docs/installation is Russian. Nothing needs to be remembered — the link already
says which one you want.
Removing it
Clearing site data for granularity.tech in your browser removes both keys. The site
keeps working; it simply forgets your theme and falls back to your system setting.
Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control
Both are respected. Since nothing is tracked, there is nothing for them to switch off — but if analytics is ever added, these signals will be honoured before anything is recorded. See Privacy.
