What We Use
TrueNoorthLounge uses browser localStorage (a client-side storage mechanism) rather than traditional HTTP cookies. The effect is similar: small pieces of data are stored on your device. No tracking cookies are used.
What We Store and Why
tnl_age_verified
Stores whether you have confirmed you are 18+. Prevents the age gate from showing on every visit. Essential for operation.
tnl_cookie_consent
Records your choice to accept or decline our storage notice. Required to respect your preference.
tnl_auth
Stores your current login session — username and coin balance. Enables persistent login across page loads.
tnl_users
Stores registered account data (username, email, hashed password, coins) on your device for account functionality.
No Third-Party Tracking
We do not use advertising cookies, analytics cookies, or any third-party tracking scripts. The Google Fonts API is used to load typography — this involves a request to Google's servers, which is subject to Google's own privacy policy.
How to Manage Storage
You can clear all TrueNoorthLounge data at any time by:
- Opening your browser's developer tools (F12)
- Navigating to Application → Local Storage
- Deleting entries prefixed with "tnl_"
Alternatively, clearing your browser's site data for TrueNoorthLounge.com will remove all stored information.
Changes to This Policy
If our use of storage changes significantly, we will update this policy and display a new consent notice. For questions, contact us.
