Cookie Policy
Focus Finder ("we," "us," "our," or "the Site") operates an informational gaming hub designed to help busy professionals find the right break activity for their moment. This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website at breakdiagnostic.info.
We are committed to transparency about how we collect and use information. This policy describes what cookies and browser storage we use, why we use them, and how you can control them.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They allow websites to remember information about your visit, such as your preferences or choices you've made.
Browser storage technologies like localStorage work similarly—they store data locally on your device that persists even after you close your browser, unless you manually clear it.
Cookies We Use
Focus Finder uses a minimal, privacy-respecting approach to cookies and browser storage:
Essential Browser Storage
We use localStorage to remember your cookie banner choice. When you interact with our cookie consent banner (accepting or declining optional features), we store your preference locally so we do not repeatedly show the same banner on your next visit. This is necessary for a smooth user experience and respects your previous decision.
We also use localStorage to support the Session Timer integrated into our diagnostic results. This helps track your break activity duration during your session, allowing you to monitor how long you've been engaged with a recommended game. This data is stored only on your device and is not transmitted to our servers.
Optional Analytics
If you consent to optional analytics, we may use basic, privacy-respecting analytics tools to understand how visitors use the Site. This helps us improve the diagnostic experience, identify which game recommendations are most helpful, and ensure the Site functions reliably. Any analytics data collected is aggregated and anonymized; we do not track individual users or store personal identifiers.
You can decline optional analytics at any time. If you do, no analytics data will be collected from your visit.
Cookies We Do Not Use
Focus Finder does not use:
- Advertising or tracking cookies that follow you across other websites
- Third-party cookies for behavioral targeting or retargeting
- Payment or financial transaction cookies (the Site is non-commercial and offers no purchases)
- Gambling, betting, or account authentication cookies
- Cookies that identify you personally or link to your real-world identity
Your Control Over Cookies and Storage
You have full control over cookies and browser storage on your device:
Change Your Cookie Preferences
When you first visit Focus Finder, a cookie banner appears. You can accept all optional features, decline them, or customize your choices. You can revisit and change your preferences at any time by looking for a cookie settings link or banner on the Site.
Clear Browser Storage
You can delete all cookies and localStorage data from your browser at any time:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and Security → Clear Browsing Data → select "Cookies and other site data" and "All time"
- Firefox: Preferences → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data → Clear Data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data → select Focus Finder and click Remove
- Edge: Settings → Privacy, search, and services → Clear browsing data → select "Cookies and other site data"
Clearing storage will reset your cookie banner choice and Session Timer data. You will be asked to consent again on your next visit.
Browser Privacy Settings
Most browsers allow you to control cookie behavior globally. You can set your browser to refuse all cookies or alert you before a cookie is stored. Note that disabling cookies may affect your experience on Focus Finder, particularly the Session Timer and cookie preference memory.
Do-Not-Track Signals
Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" feature. Focus Finder respects Do Not Track signals by not enabling optional analytics or third-party tracking when this signal is active. However, we will still use essential localStorage to remember your cookie choice and support the Session Timer, as these are necessary for core functionality.
Third-Party Links
Focus Finder may link to external gaming resources, research articles, or community sites. Those third-party websites have their own cookie policies and privacy practices. We are not responsible for their use of cookies or data collection. We encourage you to review their policies before sharing information with them.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. We will notify you of material changes by posting the updated policy on this page and updating the effective date. Your continued use of the Site after changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.

Legal Basis
Focus Finder is operated in compliance with applicable data protection laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) where applicable. Our use of essential cookies and localStorage is necessary for the legitimate operation of the Site and to provide you with the diagnostic experience you expect. Optional analytics are used only with your explicit consent.
