No cookies: what this site keeps in your browser
Arcadekite sets no cookies. This page lists exactly what the site keeps in your browser's storage, and why.
Last updated 15 November 2026.
1. No cookies
Arcadekite sets no cookies at all, and loads nothing from other websites: no fonts, analytics, adverts or social media buttons.
2. Browser storage
The site uses your browser's local storage and session storage. Local storage stays until you clear it; session storage is cleared when you close the tab. Nothing in either is sent to us.
3. Always kept, because the site needs them
| Key | What it holds | Where |
|---|---|---|
akite.age | Your answer to the age question, so it is asked once | Local |
akite.consent | Whether you accepted or rejected storage | Local |
akite.pause | The end time of any pause or rest you set | Local |
akite.care | Your check-in time, round cap and calm mode | Local |
akite.trip | This session's time, rounds and lift moved, for check-ins | Session |
4. Kept only if you accept
| Key | What it holds | If you reject |
|---|---|---|
akite.lift | Your lift balance | Kept in session storage until you close the tab |
akite.log | Your flight log: rounds per kite and ribbons | Kept in session storage until you close the tab |
5. Why the safety items are always kept
A pause or a round cap that vanished when you closed the tab would not protect anyone, and asking your age on every page would be tiresome. These items are strictly necessary for the site to work as you asked.
6. Changing your mind
Use the Storage settings button in the footer of any page to accept or reject again. Rejecting moves your lift and flight log to session storage. To remove everything, clear this site's data in your browser settings; you will be asked your age again.
7. Clearing your flight log
The flight log page has a button that clears your log and resets your lift to 2,500.
