Welcome to RiversideBalanceGentle! This page describes how tracking technologies (such as cookies and local storage) are used on our site, the reasons they exist, and the options you have.

We employ these technologies to keep the site functioning consistently, learn how visitors engage with our pages, and recall preferences when you opt in. You may review or modify your choices anytime.

Why These Technologies Are Important

Today's websites commonly depend on small data files and scripts to deliver anticipated features. For instance, session data can sustain navigation stability and cut down on repetitive tasks.

Some tracking is vital for site integrity. Other types assist us in boosting performance, identifying useful sections, and personalizing the experience when you agree.

We also analyze aggregated usage data to spot patterns—like slow pages or confusing navigation—and use that information to enhance the site.

• Essential technologies support core functionality and help avert navigation errors.
• Performance analytics help us see what functions well and what could be improved, using aggregated visit data.
• Preference storage can recall choices across sessions when you enable optional categories.
• Customization features may tailor content based on your interactions where enabled.
• Experience optimization keeps pages fast, consistent, and reliable across devices.

Usage Limitations

You decide which optional categories are active. Most browsers also let you manage cookies and stored site data, including removing existing entries.

Turning off certain technologies can affect how the site behaves. For example, blocking essential storage may disrupt navigation stability, while disabling analytics hampers our ability to troubleshoot performance problems.

You can also employ privacy tools or extensions to block trackers. Note that these tools may occasionally interfere with essential site features.

• Browser controls let you block or clear cookies and stored data.
• Preference selections can be changed by updating your consent selection.
• Functional impact may include loss of preferences or disrupted site mechanics when blocking essential storage.
• Third-party tools can reduce tracking but may break parts of the site.
• Informed choices are encouraged—use settings that match your comfort level.

Supplementary Terms

We retain different categories of tracking data for different lengths of time depending on purpose. Essential session data typically expires quickly, while aggregated analytics may be stored longer to help us spot trends.

We use security safeguards to reduce risk of unauthorized access and keep data handling limited to what is necessary.

• Retention varies by category and purpose.
• Security includes safeguards for storage and access.
• Data minimization means collecting only what’s needed.
• Compliance follows applicable privacy standards and regulations.
• Transparency is maintained through clear policy updates.

Other Methods

In addition to cookies, websites can use mechanisms such as web beacons, pixels, and browser storage. These help measure engagement, maintain stability, and remember preferences.

Server logs may also store technical details (like access times or error traces) for security and troubleshooting. Access is limited and retention is controlled.

• Beacons and pixels can gauge engagement in a limited fashion.
• Local and session storage can hold preferences and temporary data.
• Device and session signals can help protect the site from abuse.
• Server logs assist with debugging and security monitoring.
• User controls are available via browser settings and consent preferences.
