Cookie Policy

What this page covers
This explains what cookies and similar local storage miniwebdesigns.com uses, why, and how you control them. Nothing on this list loads before you've made a choice, except what's strictly necessary to run the site.
How consent works here
On your first visit, a banner asks you to Accept all, Reject all, or open Preferences — all three are equally easy to choose; nothing is pre-ticked in your favour. Only strictly necessary storage runs before you choose. Non-essential storage (currently, Google Analytics 4) loads only after you actively opt in. Your choice is remembered on this device, and you can change it at any time using the Manage cookie preferences button below or the "Cookie settings" link in the footer.
Cookie & storage inventory
| Name / type | Category | Purpose | Duration | Loads before consent? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
mwd.cart.v1 (browser storage) | Strictly necessary | Remembers what's in your cart across visits | Until cleared or checkout completes | Yes — required for the cart to work |
mwd.consent.v1 (browser storage) | Strictly necessary | Remembers your cookie choice | Persistent, until you change it | Yes — required to remember your choice at all |
mwd.outbox.v1 (browser storage) | Strictly necessary | Locally saves a form submission if it can't be sent immediately, so it isn't lost | Until successfully sent or cleared | Yes |
_ga, _ga_* (Google Analytics 4) | Analytics | Distinguishes visitors and sessions for aggregate site-usage reporting | Up to 2 years | No — only after you accept Analytics |
We do not use marketing, advertising, or third-party retargeting cookies of any kind.
Managing your choice
— reopens the panel described above at any time. Turning Analytics off stops future data collection and clears the associated cookies; it does not affect the strictly necessary storage the site needs to function (cart and consent memory).
Browser-level control
You can also block or delete cookies directly in your browser's settings. Doing so may affect strictly necessary functionality, such as your cart contents persisting between visits.
