Cookie & Local Storage Policy
Aurum East Africa maintains a privacy-first web infrastructure with zero cross-site behavioral tracking and minimal functional storage.
1. Our Minimalist Privacy Philosophy
Unlike advertising-driven websites, Aurum East Africa does not sell ad inventory, track your browsing across third-party websites, or use invasive surveillance trackers. We utilize client-side cookies and modern HTML5 Web Storage strictly to deliver essential interface functionality, remember your preferred currency or theme, and ensure smooth security checks.
2. Inventory of Functional Storage Keys
The table below itemizes every key stored in your browser when navigating aurumeastafrica.com:

aurum_theme |
localStorage | Persistent (1 Year) | Remembers your visual theme preference (Dark Luxury or Warm Ivory Light). |
aurum_lang |
localStorage | Persistent (1 Year) | Stores your language selection (English, Français, or Kiswahili). |
aurum_cookie_consent |
localStorage | Persistent (6 Months) | Records whether you have acknowledged our privacy and cookie declaration. |
aurum_preloader_seen |
sessionStorage | Browser Session | Prevents the luxury intro preloader animation from displaying repeatedly during internal page transitions. |
lastQuoteSubmit |
localStorage | 1 Hour | Client-side rate limiting to prevent spam and accidental duplicate quote submissions. |
3. Third-Party Analytics & Tracking
We do not deploy third-party advertising pixels (such as Meta Pixel or Google Ads Remarketing). Any aggregate site metrics are anonymized and do not link IP addresses to personal trade records or KYC files.
4. Managing & Clearing Your Storage
You can delete or block cookies and local storage data at any time via your browser settings:
- Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and other site data.
- Apple Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data.
- Mozilla Firefox: Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data.
- Microsoft Edge: Settings > Cookies and site permissions > Manage and delete cookies.
Clearing local storage will simply reset your selected theme to Dark, reset the language to English, and replay the introduction preloader upon your next visit.
