2. How We Use Cookies

CodeCrest Innovation uses a minimal, strictly necessary cookie policy:

• Strictly Necessary Cookies: Used exclusively for authenticating administrators in the protected console area (`/seth-ji-ka-elaka`) via secure, `HttpOnly`, `SameSite=Lax` cookies.
• Functional Storage: LocalStorage or IndexedDB is used strictly within your own browser to persist your temporary tool drafts (e.g. invoice items, regex test strings) so you do not lose progress upon refreshing.

3. Third-Party Advertising & Analytics Cookies

When advertising partners (such as Google AdSense) or analytics services are active on CodeCrest Innovation, third-party cookies may be placed on your device to serve relevant advertisements and assess campaign effectiveness. These third parties may use cookies and web beacons to collect non-personally identifiable information about your visits to this and other websites.

Google uses advertising cookies to serve personalized ads based on a user's prior visits. You can manage or disable these cookies through your browser settings or by visiting the Google Ads Settings.
