Welcome to ModestStreamBay! This page describes how tracking technologies—such as cookies and local storage—are employed on our site, the purpose they serve, and the options you can exercise.

We rely on these technologies to ensure the site operates consistently, gain insight into how visitors navigate our pages, and recall preferences when you opt in. You may review or adjust your choices anytime.

Why These Technologies Are Important

Contemporary sites commonly depend on small data files and scripts to provide expected functionality. For instance, session data can help keep navigation stable and minimize repetitive tasks.

Some tracking is vital for site integrity. Other categories assist us in boosting performance, determining which sections are helpful, and personalizing the experience when you opt in.

We also examine aggregated usage to spot patterns—like sluggish pages or confusing navigation—and use that data to improve the site.

• Essential technologies support core functionality and help prevent errors during navigation.
• Performance analytics help us see what functions well and what needs enhancement, based on aggregated visit data.
• Preference storage can recall selections across sessions when you enable optional categories.
• Customization features may tailor content based on how you interact, where enabled.
• Experience optimization helps maintain fast, consistent, and dependable pages across devices.

Usage Limitations

You decide which optional categories are active. Most browsers also let you manage cookies and stored site data, including removing existing entries.

Turning off some technologies can affect how the site behaves. For instance, blocking essential storage may disrupt navigation stability, while blocking analytics limits our ability to troubleshoot performance problems.

You can also employ privacy tools or extensions to block trackers. Note that these tools may occasionally interfere with essential site features.

• Browser controls allow you to block or erase cookies and stored data.
• Preference choices can be updated by revising your consent selection.
• Functional impact may include losing preferences or disrupted site mechanics when essential storage is blocked.
• Third-party tools can cut down on tracking but may impair certain site parts.
• Informed decisions are encouraged—use settings that align with your comfort level.

Supplementary Terms

We retain various categories of tracking data for differing durations based on purpose. Essential session data usually expires shortly, whereas aggregated analytics may be kept longer to help identify trends.

We implement security measures to lower the risk of unauthorized access and limit data handling to what is necessary.

• Retention varies by category and purpose.
• Security includes safeguards for storage and access.
• Data minimization means collecting only what’s needed.
• Compliance with applicable privacy standards and regulations.
• Transparency is maintained through clear policy updates.

Other Methods

Besides cookies, sites may use mechanisms like beacons, pixels, and browser storage. These help gauge engagement, preserve stability, and recall preferences.

Server logs may also store technical details (such as access times or error traces) for security and troubleshooting. Access is restricted and retention is managed.

• Beacons and pixels can measure engagement to a limited extent.
• Local and session storage can hold preferences and temporary data.
• Device and session signals can help shield the site from abuse.
• Server logs assist with debugging and security monitoring.
• User controls are provided via browser settings and consent preferences.
