Cookies and local storage

Cookie Policy

A small preference, with a clear purpose.

Independent guideTeamjieletric is an independent educational publisher. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or acting on behalf of TIAA. We do not verify messages, investigate incidents, recover accounts or provide technical support.

What the site stores

The site code does not set analytics or advertising cookies. It uses localStorage, a browser storage feature separate from cookies, only when you acknowledge the privacy notice.

The key teamjieletric.privacy-notice.v1 contains the value seen. It records that the notice has been acknowledged; it does not contain a name, email, checklist selection, message or unique visitor identifier.

How long the preference lasts

The preference has no automatic expiry. It stays in that browser profile until you clear the site’s storage or the site changes its preference key. Private browsing and browser settings may remove it sooner.

If browser storage is unavailable, the guides still work. You may see the privacy notice again on another page or visit. Acknowledging the notice is not consent to advertising tracking; this site includes no such tracking.

Checklist selections

Checklist choices exist only in the current page’s memory and are reset on a fresh page load. The site does not place them in cookies or localStorage and does not transmit them.

The checklist cannot authenticate a message and does not require a message, link or personal information.

Removing the preference

Use your browser’s site-data or privacy settings to clear stored data for teamjieletric.com. The notice will appear again after the preference is removed. Clearing this preference does not affect access to any article.

Hosting or security services added outside the supplied code may have their own behavior. The operator should review this page if the site’s storage or tracking configuration changes. For an editorial privacy question, email [email protected].
