This page explains how Engawa uses cookies and similar technologies such as localStorage.

Short version

We do not use advertising or third-party tracking cookies. We use a small amount of essential browser storage so the site can remember your language and wishlist.

What we store

Language preference (`akiya-lang`). Remembers whether you last chose English or Japanese. Stored in localStorage on your device.

Wishlist (`ew_saved`). The list of listing ids you have hearted. Stored in localStorage on your device. Clearing site data clears this list.

Server logs. When your browser requests a page, our servers see standard technical data (IP address, user agent, path). That is not a cookie on your device, but it is processing of technical data described in our Privacy Policy.

Cookies we set

Today the public catalogue does not rely on third-party marketing cookies. If we add essential session cookies for security or load balancing, they will be strictly necessary for the service to work.

How to control storage

You can clear cookies and site data in your browser settings. You can also use private browsing. Blocking all storage may reset language and empty your wishlist each visit.

Changes

We will update this page if our use of cookies or local storage changes.
