Cookie & Storage Policy
Last Updated: June 6, 2026 · Version 1.0.0
YieldSage does not use tracking cookies, targeting pixels, or cross-site analytics identifiers to log your private behaviors.
We use browser Local Storage and essential session cookies strictly to enable core features like watchlist syncs, dashboard layouts, and theme configurations. This data remains on your local machine and is never shared with us.
1. What is Browser Local Storage?
Local storage is a built-in feature of modern web browsers that allows websites to store key-value data locally on your computer or mobile device. Unlike standard tracking cookies, local storage data is not transmitted to backend servers automatically on every request. It resides strictly inside your browser, ensuring a higher level of user-controlled privacy.
2. How YieldSage Uses Storage Mechanisms
We utilize browser storage for the following essential functionalities:
| Storage Key / Type | Purpose | Retention |
|---|---|---|
| `yieldsage_watchlist` | Persists the pool UUIDs you star in the leaderboard. | Persistent (Local) |
| `yieldsage_storage_consent` | Remembers your consent preference for storing local configs. | Persistent (Local) |
| `sb-access-token` / `sb-refresh-token` | Enables secure login sessions via Supabase Auth. | Session / Temporary |
3. Third-Party Storage
When you interact with the on-chain features of the site using your Web3 wallets (e.g. MetaMask, WalletConnect, or Coinbase Wallet), those wallet extensions may independently store session credentials or transaction state values in local storage or cookies. This storage is governed by the privacy policies of your respective wallet software.
4. How to Manage Local Storage
You can audit and delete local storage entries at any time using your browser settings:
- In Chrome or Brave: `Settings` → `Privacy and security` → `Site settings` → `View permissions and data stored across sites`.
- In Firefox: `Settings` → `Privacy & Security` → `Cookies and Site Data` → `Manage Data`.
- You can also click **Essentials Only** on our storage banner to decline watchlist caching.
