WatchRoom uses only strictly necessary first-party cookies and browser local storage required for system authentication and playback performance. We do NOT use third-party tracking cookies, advertising pixels, or cross-site tracking scripts.

2. Exact Inventory of Technologies Used

watchroom_session HTTP Cookie (HttpOnly, Secure) Maintains your authenticated login session across HTTP requests and WebSocket handshakes. 7 Days (or until logout)
watchroom_theme HTML5 localStorage Remembers your UI aesthetic preference (Dark or Light Neumorphic Mode). Persistent (Local Browser)
watchroom_client_id HTML5 localStorage Provides a consistent anonymous identifier for guest users joining rooms without an account. Persistent (Local Browser)
