How This Site Uses Storage Technologies
This catalogue relies on cookies and similar storage technologies to function, remember your preferences, and improve your experience. This policy explains what storage is used, why, and how you can control it. The term 'cookies' here includes both traditional cookies and other client-side storage methods such as local storage and session storage.
Essential Cookies
Certain cookies are necessary for the site to operate. These include session cookies that keep you logged in (if you create an account) and technical cookies that remember your search settings or the books you have added to a reading list. These are first-party cookies set by this domain. They do not track you across other sites and are deleted when you close your browser (session cookies) or persist only as long as needed for their function. Without these essential cookies, basic features like saving your reading progress or maintaining your login state would not work.
Preference Cookies
We may store your display preferences, such as text size, font, or theme, in a persistent cookie or local storage. This allows the site to present content in your chosen format on return visits. These preferences are stored only on your device and are not shared with any third party. You can change these preferences at any time through your browser settings, but doing so may reset your customisations.
Analytics Cookies (Where Enabled)
Where analytics are enabled, we use a first-party analytics script to collect anonymous usage data, such as which catalogue pages are most visited, how users navigate the site, and general geographic region (at country level). This data helps us understand which restored works and reading guides are of interest and improve the catalogue. No personal information is collected or stored by this system. The analytics script is configured to anonymise IP addresses and does not share data with any external service beyond the site's own server.
Advertising Cookies (Where Ads Are Displayed)
Some pages may display advertisements through Google AdSense or similar Google advertising services. Where ads are shown, Google may place cookies on your device to serve relevant ads based on your browsing history and interests. These are third-party cookies and may track you across different websites. The information collected is governed by Google's own privacy policy. You can opt out of personalised advertising through Google's Ad Settings. If you prefer not to receive any advertising cookies, you may disable them via your browser settings or choose to view pages where ads are not displayed.
Local Storage
In addition to cookies, this site may use local storage (such as HTML5 localStorage) to store your reading progress, bookmarks, or notes you make while browsing. This data remains on your device and is not automatically transmitted to our server. Local storage is useful for saving temporary information that enhances your browsing experience, such as the last page you viewed within a book.
Your Choices
When you first visit the site, you may see a consent notice for non-essential cookies (analytics and advertising). You can accept or decline these categories. If you decline, only essential cookies will be set. You can withdraw or change your consent at any time by clearing cookies and local storage through your browser settings and reloading the page. Note that clearing all data will remove both essential and non-essential storage, which may affect site functionality.
Most browsers allow you to view, delete, or block cookies and local storage. Please consult your browser's help section for instructions. If you disable all cookies, some features of this catalogue (such as saving your reading list or remembering your preferences) may not work as intended. We recommend allowing essential cookies for the best experience.
Third-Party Cookies
Third-party cookies may be set by Google if advertising is displayed on a page. We do not control these cookies and recommend reviewing Google's cookie policy for details. No other third-party tracking services are used. This site does not use social media widgets, embedded content from other platforms, or any other third-party services that would set cookies beyond those described.
Updates
This policy may be updated occasionally. Any changes will be posted here. Your continued use of the site after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy. We encourage you to review this page periodically to stay informed about how we use storage technologies.
If you have questions about this policy, you may contact the catalogue project at the email address provided on the site.
