Local storage

Local storage is a file created by websites on your device. Cookies are not the only type of local storage. It is important that you familiarize yourself with them, because you may need to block or delete the data stored in them one day:

  • Browser local storage. Some websites use browser storage called “sessionStorage” and “localStorage” to store data; “sessionStorage” is temporary, while “localStorage” is persistent. You can delete them by clearing your browser history.
  • Flash Local Storage (“Flash Local Shared Objects”). Flash is a browser plug-in used to add interactive and multimedia content to web pages. Flash can store data on your device.
  • Silverlight Local Storage (“Standalone Objects”). Silverlight is a browser plug-in used to add interactive and multimedia content to web pages. Silverlight can store data on your device.
  • A web beacon is a tracking method that uses an image embedded in a web page. If your browser connects to the server on which the image is located, it will be downloaded and your access will be monitored. Web beacons are sometimes very small or transparent images, so the user does not even notice them.
