Cookie Policy

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files or data entries that a website places in your browser's storage area when you visit. They allow a website to remember information about your visit — such as your preferred settings or whether you have accepted a particular notice — across page loads and sessions. Cookies are not executable programs and cannot carry viruses or malware.

This site uses browser localStorage rather than HTTP-set cookies to store preference data. From a regulatory perspective under the Italian implementation of the ePrivacy Directive (D.Lgs. 69/2012) and the GDPR, local storage entries that access or store information on the terminal device are treated equivalently to cookies and are governed by the same consent requirements.

2. Cookies and Storage Used by This Site

ByteComputerRepairs.com uses only strictly necessary functional storage. We do not set advertising cookies, tracking pixels, third-party analytics cookies, or social media widgets that track your browsing behaviour.

Name / Key	Type	Purpose	Duration	First / Third Party
bytecomp_cookie_accepted	localStorage	Stores your consent preference to suppress repeated display of the cookie notice banner on subsequent visits. Value is a Boolean string ("true"). No personal data is stored within this entry.	Persistent (until browser data is cleared by user)	First party

3. Third-Party Scripts

This site loads Bootstrap 4.3.1, jQuery 3.4.1, and Popper.js from CDN providers (StackPath and jsDelivr) to render the responsive navigation and interface components. These CDN requests transmit your IP address to the CDN servers as part of the standard HTTP request. The CDN providers may set their own performance or security cookies. We have no control over CDN-set cookies; please refer to the respective providers' privacy documentation for details.

Google Fonts are loaded via a CSS @import rule. This request transmits your IP address to Google's servers. Google's privacy policy governs how Google processes this data: policies.google.com/privacy.

4. How to Manage and Delete Cookies

You can clear the local storage entry set by this site at any time by clearing your browser's site data for bytecomputerrepairs.com. Instructions vary by browser:

• Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data → See all site data and permissions → Search for bytecomputerrepairs.com → Delete.
• Mozilla Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data → Manage Data → Search → Remove Selected.
• Safari: Settings → Privacy → Manage Website Data → Search → Remove.
• Microsoft Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Cookies and site data → See all cookies → Search → Remove.

Clearing this storage entry will cause the cookie notice banner to reappear on your next visit, as your preference will no longer be recorded.

5. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy if we change the storage mechanisms or third-party services used on this site. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
