Cookie Policy

This site uses no advertising, statistics, or social media cookies. Here is everything it stores in your browser — and how to delete it.

In short

  • The site sets no cookies.
  • It stores only three preferences in your browser, and only when you use them: the reading theme, the reading list, and the preferred Amazon store.
  • None of this is sent to the site or to third parties.
  • That is why no cookie banner is shown.

1.Cookies and local storage

Cookies are small files that a website stores in your browser and that are sent back to the server on each visit. Local storage is similar, but the data stays in the browser only: it is not sent to anyone.

The law requires consent to store information on your device, except where it is strictly necessary to provide a service you asked for — such as remembering a preference you chose.

2.What this site stores

This site sets no cookies. It uses only your browser’s local storage, and only when you choose one of these functions:

This site’s data in your browser

  • Reading theme

    Technical name
    theme
    What it is for
    Remembers the light or dark mode you chose.
    When it is stored
    Only when you use the theme button.
    Duration
    Until you delete it.

  • Reading list

    Technical name
    lista-de-leitura
    What it is for
    Keeps the books and texts you marked with “Save”.
    When it is stored
    Only when you use the “Save” button.
    Duration
    Until you delete it.

  • Preferred Amazon store

    Technical name
    loja-amazon
    What it is for
    Remembers the Amazon store for your country, so the purchase buttons show it first.
    When it is stored
    Only when you choose a store under “Your Amazon store” on a book page.
    Duration
    Until you delete it.

This data stays in this browser and on this device only. You can delete it right here, at any time.

3.Third-party cookies

None. The site loads no advertising, statistics, embedded videos, maps, or social media buttons, and serves its own fonts.

When you follow a link to Amazon or another store, that site decides which cookies it uses, under its own policy.

4.Why you see no cookie banner

A cookie banner is only needed when a site wants to store non-essential information — for example, to measure visits. As this site does not, it does not ask for your permission or interrupt you with pop-ups.

5.If statistics are ever added

If visits are ever measured, a privacy-friendly tool will be used. If that tool needs cookies or identifiers, a notice will first appear with three options, all equally prominent:

  • “Accept all”;
  • “Reject non-essential”;
  • “Customize” — to choose category by category (statistics, external services).

Non-essential categories stay off until you give permission, and you can change your mind at any time. This page will be updated before any change.

6.Managing it in your browser

You can also view and delete data stored by any site in your browser settings, usually under “Privacy” or “Site data”. In a private window, nothing is kept once you close it.

7.Changes
