How We Use Tracking Technologies
Last Updated: February 2025
We're pretty straightforward about tracking on lp-scanner.com. This page explains what we collect, why we need it, and how you can opt out of most of it. Some technologies keep the site running smoothly — those stay active. Others help us understand usage patterns and improve our services — and those are entirely your choice.
What Are Tracking Technologies?
When you visit our site, small pieces of data get stored on your device. Most people call them cookies, but the technical reality includes several different methods: browser cookies, local storage entries, session tokens, and pixel tags.
They serve different purposes. Some remember your preferences between visits. Others measure which pages get the most attention or identify where traffic comes from. A few are absolutely necessary for basic functionality — like keeping you logged in while you navigate between pages.
Types We Use at LpScanner
How Long Data Stays Active
Session-based entries expire when you close your browser. That's typically under an hour of active use. Persistent items might last anywhere from 30 days to two years, depending on their purpose.
You can clear everything manually at any time through your browser settings. That's often found under Privacy or History menus, though exact locations vary by browser version.
Take Control Right Now
Below is your current tracking status. Essential technologies remain active for site functionality. Everything else? One click removes it all.
Current Status
All Cookies Active
Note: Essential security and session management technologies cannot be disabled. They're required for basic site operation and don't track personal behavior patterns.
Managing Through Browser Settings
Every modern browser includes built-in tracking controls. Some offer granular category management. Others provide simple on/off switches. Here's where to look:
Chrome & Edge
Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and Site Data. You'll find options to block third-party trackers or clear all stored data. The "See all cookies and site data" link shows exactly what's currently stored.
Firefox
Options → Privacy & Security → Enhanced Tracking Protection. Standard mode blocks social trackers. Strict mode adds cross-site tracking cookies to the block list. Custom mode lets you pick specific categories.
Safari
Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data. Safari blocks most third-party tracking by default. You can view and remove individual site data here or prevent all cross-site tracking through the main toggle.
Third-Party Services
We integrate a few external tools for specialized functions. Analytics runs through a third-party platform that aggregates usage statistics. Email communications connect through an external service provider. Payment processing happens off-site through a secure gateway.
Each of these services operates under its own privacy policy. We've vetted them for security standards and data handling practices, but they're independent entities. When you reject non-essential tracking on our site, it doesn't automatically disable third-party trackers — those require separate browser-level blocking or individual opt-outs through each service.
Updates and Changes
We modify these practices occasionally. New features might require different tracking approaches. Regulatory changes sometimes force adjustments. When significant updates happen, we'll update the date at the top of this page and notify active users through email if the changes materially affect data collection scope.
Minor clarifications or technical corrections happen without notification. You're always welcome to check back and review current practices. This page reflects our actual implementation — not aspirational goals or vague intentions.
