1. Cookies and similar technologies
Cookies are small values that a service can send with browser requests. Local storage is a separate browser feature that keeps data for a particular website address. The Namefield application uses local storage for the features below; it does not write application cookies through its scripts. Hosting, sign-in or security services can use their own cookies independently. Cached pages and images can also remain in ordinary browser caches.
A different browser, device or website domain has separate storage. The controls on this page apply only to this origin and do not change data on an earlier website address.
2. Current storage inventory
| Technology / key | Purpose and activation | Duration / limit |
|---|---|---|
namefield.tools.recent.v1Session storage | Up to 12 recently opened tool IDs for the directory’s current-tab recent-tools view. No naming input or account identifier is stored here. | Current tab session; clear in the directory. Browser session restoration may retain it according to browser settings. |
namefield.catalog.shortlist.v1Local storage | Catalog names you explicitly choose to save. Used for the requested shortlist and comparison features. | Up to 150 entries; no automatic expiry. Remains until cleared or removed by the browser. |
namefield.shortlist.v1Local storage | Names explicitly saved in the earlier everyday studio. Separate from the catalog shortlist. | Up to 100 entries; no automatic expiry. |
namefield.catalog.seen.v1Optional local storage | Recent generated spellings for cross-visit repeat filtering. Not read or written by the current generator until you enable persistent history. | Most recent 6,000 spellings. Removed when you turn history off or use Clear history. |
namefield.privacy.preferences.v1Local storage | Records your history choice and choice date after you use these controls. Used to respect the choice you requested. | Choice valid for up to 12 months; no advertising ID or naming brief. |
namefield.projects.v1Local storage | Projects explicitly saved by the visitor: brief, candidates, naming requirements, decisions, use test observations, recent revisions, optional preferred reading, final-name record and visitor-recorded checks. No automatic draft saving or cloud synchronization. | Up to 20 projects including archived ones. No automatic expiry; browser site-data controls can remove them. Export editable JSON for a separate backup. |
| Page memory | Current generated results, comparison selection, unsaved fields and advisor inputs. Allows tool use without optional persistent history. | Current page. Browser restoration behavior is controlled by the browser. |
| Provider-managed cookies | The hosting or sign-in service may use essential delivery, security or authentication cookies. Namefield’s scripts do not name, set or manage those provider records. | Determined by the provider; inspect browser site-data controls and the provider’s privacy information. |
| Advertising / analytics cookies | Not enabled by the application in this release. | None set by an active Namefield advertising or analytics integration. |
3. Manage your choices
Optional recent-name history is off until you enable it here. The current page can still avoid repeats within its working results without keeping a cross-visit record. If an older version stored recent history, that old value may remain on your device until you remove it, but the current generator will not use it while the optional setting is off. Selecting “Use only requested features” removes that stored history and leaves explicit saved favorites available.
Your browser preferences
Generating names works with optional history off. Saved favorites are stored only when you choose to save them.
Clear local naming data
Clearing data cannot be undone. Export a shortlist first if you want a copy.
These controls manage only Namefield browser data. They do not sign you out of the hosting provider, clear provider-managed cookies or act as consent for Google ads.
5. Browser controls and limits
You can review and delete cookies and site storage through your browser settings. Clearing all site data can remove shortlists and sign you out of provider-managed services. Export names you want to keep first. Private browsing and storage blocking can limit persistence, and deleting cookies alone may not delete local storage.
This panel cannot delete HttpOnly cookies, other websites’ storage, copies of exported files, links you have already shared or provider logs. The application does not use a Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control signal to enable optional history; a missing or negative history choice remains off. There is no active sale, sharing or advertising integration for this panel to opt you into.
