1. What Are Cookies and Local Storage?
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit websites. They are widely used to maintain site reliability, remember technical preferences, and provide anonymous aggregate performance insights. Similar browser technologies, such as HTML5 Local Storage, allow client-side scripts to remember user choices (such as your cookie consent decision) across page navigations.
2. Categories of Cookies We Use
We maintain a minimal cookie and local storage footprint strictly limited to two functional categories:
- Strictly Necessary / Essential Technical Storage: These items are required for the website to function properly, maintain navigation stability, prevent cross-site request forgery, and remember your cookie consent preferences. These cannot be disabled through the consent banner without affecting core site operation.
- Anonymous Performance & Diagnostic Metrics: When accepted, non-invasive telemetry cookies help us understand aggregate traffic patterns, such as which technical guides are most frequently read. These tools do not collect personally identifiable information (PII) or track your behavior across unrelated third-party websites.

The table below provides a full inventory of the technical storage mechanisms and cookies utilized on this site:
| Identifier / Key | Provider | Type | Purpose | Duration |

4. Third-Party Cookies and External Fonts
Our website utilizes Google Fonts to load architectural typography. When loading font files, your browser connects to Google's public font distribution servers. Google does not place tracking cookies for font rendering, and font requests are transmitted over encrypted TLS connections. We do not integrate third-party advertising cookies, retargeting pixels, or behavioral marketing beacons.
5. How to Manage and Disable Cookies
You have full control over cookie usage and can modify your preferences through several methods:
- Our Cookie Banner: On your initial visit, you can click "Reject Non-Essential" to block all non-critical performance storage. Rejecting does not restrict your access to any articles, service scopes, or contact forms.
- Browser Settings: Most modern browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) allow you to view, block, or delete cookies through their privacy settings. Refer to your browser's official documentation for specific instructions.
6. Impact of Disabling Essential Cookies
If you configure your browser to block all local storage and cookies indiscriminately, the site will still render content and technical articles; however, the cookie notification banner will reappear on each page refresh because your dismissal choice cannot be saved in local storage.
7. Relationship to Privacy Policy
For more detailed information on how we handle personal data, your legal rights under Taiwan PDPA, and our data controller details, please review our comprehensive Privacy Policy.
