cookie value is a random opaque identifier. it carries no personal data. it is not shared with operators, ad networks, or analytics vendors.
local storage / session storage
panel may use localStorage on panel.goku.codes for short-lived UI state (challenge progress, retry counters). this data never leaves your browser and is purged when challenges complete or when you clear site data.
what we don't do
- no Google Analytics, no GA4, no third-party analytics.
- no advertising or remarketing cookies.
- no session-replay or behavioral biometrics beyond aggregate counts described in privacy.
- no fingerprint persistence across cookie clears — by design.
if we ever add a non-essential cookie
we'll show a consent banner before setting it, default-deny, with clear granular choices. this page will be updated at least 30 days in advance for paid operators.
clearing the cookie
clear site data for panel.goku.codes in your browser. your trust tier and rater identity reset on next visit — by design, we cannot link the old and new sessions.
