Cookie & Local Storage Policy

Last updated: March 2026

At Tennis Vertex, we respect your privacy and believe in a clean, fast browsing experience. Therefore, we do not use any tracking, advertising, or third-party analytical cookies. You will not be tracked across the web while using our platform.

To ensure the basic functionality of the site, we rely on standard, strictly necessary local storage technologies:

1. Essential Local Storage

Instead of traditional cookies, we use your browser's localStorage and sessionStorage strictly for technical purposes:

• Authentication: To keep your session active after you log in, allowing you to seamlessly navigate to your Locker Room, Court Central, or Academy without having to enter your password on every page.
• Interface Preferences: To remember your UI choices, such as whether you prefer Light Mode or Dark Mode.

Since these elements are strictly necessary to provide the service you requested, they are exempt from requiring prior consent under current privacy laws.

2. Embedded Video Content (YouTube)

We feature tennis lessons and matches hosted on YouTube. To protect your privacy, we have implemented a "Click-to-Load" system with enhanced privacy settings:

• When you load a page with a video, we only display a static thumbnail image. No YouTube cookies are installed on your device at this stage.
• Only when you actively click the "Play" button, the video player is loaded using YouTube's official privacy-enhanced domain (youtube-nocookie.com). This ensures that YouTube does not store information to personalize advertising based on your viewing behavior on our platform.

3. Managing Your Storage

Even though we only use essential storage, you remain in full control of your device. You can clear your browser's local storage and session storage at any time through your web browser's settings. Please note that clearing this data will log you out of your Tennis Vertex account and reset your theme preferences to default.
