1. What Are Cookies and Local Storage Objects?
Cookies are compact text files placed onto your device by a web browser when you access digital services. Similar client-side technologies, such as HTML5 localStorage, permit websites to store user preference state directly within your local browser sandbox. At reelroostteamtons.homes, we utilise these technologies conservatively, primarily to secure form submissions, maintain interface preferences, and analyze anonymised navigation paths.
2. Categories of Cookies Deployed
We classify the data storage mechanisms operating on this domain into three clear technical tiers:
Tier 1: Strictly Necessary (Essential)
These objects are vital for basic site navigation, accessibility rendering, and secure form transmission. Because the platform cannot operate properly without them, they cannot be switched off in our preference panels. They do not store any personally identifiable marketing identifiers.
Tier 2: Performance & Technical Analytics
These tokens gather aggregated, privacy-first telemetry regarding which pages are visited most frequently, average page rendering latencies, and whether users encounter error states. These metrics are processed without linking IP addresses to individual client records.
Tier 3: Functional Preferences
Functional tokens enable the platform to recall user choices—such as your chosen cookie consent preferences or collapsed state of technical navigation panels.

3. Managing Cookie Preferences Through Your Browser
In addition to using our on-site preference manager (accessible via the button below or via the cookie banner), you can control cookie acceptance directly through your browser settings. Most modern web browsers allow you to:
- Review all cookies currently stored on your computer and delete them selectively or entirely.
- Block third-party cookies from tracking your browsing across other domains.
- Block all cookies unconditionally (please note that blocking essential cookies may disrupt form submissions on our contact portal).
- Configure your browser to clear all cookies automatically whenever you close your browser window.
4. Reopening Your Preference Panel
You can adjust your consent choices at any point during your visit to our website. Clicking the button below immediately re-opens the consent preferences dialog:
