Cookie Policy
Last updated: April 2026. This policy explains cookie-like technologies AlwaysReady Care uses under Privacy Act 2020, Health Information Privacy Code 2020.
TL;DR — we don't track you
AlwaysReady Care does not set tracking cookies, Google Analytics, advertising pixels, Facebook Pixel, TikTok Pixel, or any behavioural tracking. We don't sell or share your data.
What we do use
Like most modern web apps, we use browser localStorage for functionality. This is not technically a cookie, but regulators treat it similarly for transparency purposes.
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| arc-region | Remembers your regional variant (UK/AU/NZ/IE/DE) | Until you clear it |
| arc-chk-* / arc-sis-* / arc-qi-* etc. | Saves your in-tool progress (checklists, formularies, calculators) | Until you clear it |
| firebaseLocalStorage (only when logged in) | Authentication token to keep your AlwaysReady Care session active | Until logout or token expiry |
| theme | Remembers your dark/light preference | Until you clear it |
All localStorage entries live on your device only. They never leave your browser unless you explicitly log in — in which case only the Firebase auth token is transmitted to Google (per our Privacy Policy).
Third-party requests (not cookies)
Loading our pages makes these HTTPS requests, which may transmit your IP address to the provider:
- Google Fonts (Poppins)
- Cloudflare cdnjs (Font Awesome icons)
- GitHub Pages (our host)
These are necessary to display the page. They do not set tracking cookies.
How to clear storage
Any modern browser can clear localStorage. See Chrome, Firefox, Safari.
