Cookies & browser storage

This page explains the storage and optional analytics used on yourvanlife.xyz. Local storage is information kept by your browser; it is different from a cookie, although both can remember settings between visits.

Your privacy choice

The local-storage item vl_cookie_consent remembers whether you allow or reject optional analytics. It remains until you change it or clear this site’s browser data. Choose Privacy preferences in the footer at any time to change your choice. Rejecting analytics does not stop you reading guides or using the planning tools.

Optional analytics

When analytics is configured and you allow it, we send pageviews and selected actions to Plausible. These include guide searches, Amazon link clicks and successful waiting-list signups. We send the page path and limited details such as a result count or link placement; we do not send your search terms, email address, account details, URL query parameters or fragments.

Our integration does not set analytics cookies or load a third-party tracking script. It checks your saved choice before each analytics request. Rejecting analytics stops future requests; it does not erase information already received. Plausible describes its processing in its data policy.

Community sign-in and cached pages

If you sign in to the community, vl_token and vl_user keep your sign-in information in local storage. Signing out removes these items. Our service worker can also cache public pages and static assets to help them load again. Browser settings let you clear this site’s storage and cached data.

Retailer and hosting services

Amazon links take you to Amazon’s website, where its own privacy and cookie choices apply. We do not place Amazon cookies on your device merely because you read an article here. Cloudflare hosts and protects this site and processes technical requests to deliver it.
