Cookie & Local Storage Policy
Effective Date: August 24, 2026
Last Updated: October 10, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how CHN Entertainment Studios ("we," "our," or "us") uses cookies, local browser storage, and related technologies on our video streaming website.
1. What Are Cookies and Local Storage?
- Cookies: Small text files placed on your device by websites you visit to store configuration settings or track browsing activity.
- IndexedDB: Browser-local database storage used to remember playback progress.
- Session Storage (sessionStorage): Storage scoped to a browser tab session, used to remember an adult age declaration without retaining the entered age.
- Local Storage (localStorage): A web browser feature that allows websites to store key-value data directly on your device with no expiration date, enabling instant retrieval across visits without server round-trips.
2. Technologies We Use and Why
A. Functional Browser Storage (Playback, Age Declaration & Invitations)
We use browser storage to support playback, remember age eligibility, and avoid repeating subscription invitations:
- Adult Eligibility: Session storage remembers only that an age of 18 or older was declared. The entered age is neither stored nor transmitted.
- YouTube Invitation: Local storage remembers that playback has started and that the invitation has been shown or a Subscribe link clicked. These flags persist until cleared; the invitation does not automatically repeat.
- Playback Timestamp: IndexedDB saves your current position in an episode or film so you can resume where you stopped.
- Player Settings: Remembers your chosen audio volume, subtitle preferences, and playback resolution.
- Note: This data is stored locally on your device and is never transmitted or linked to user profiles on our servers.
B. Third-Party Advertising Cookies (Marketing & Analytics)
To keep streaming free without subscription fees, we work with third-party ad networks (such as Google AdSense or programmatic ad exchanges):
- Ad networks deploy cookies and identifiers to serve relevant ads, limit frequency (how many times you see an ad), and measure ad campaign effectiveness.
- These cookies may track your browsing activity across different websites over time.
3. Summary of Storage Technologies
| Storage Type | Category | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
localStorage | Essential / Functional | Player preferences & subscription invitation flags | Persistent (until cleared) |
| IndexedDB | Functional | Playback progress | Until cleared |
| sessionStorage | Functional | Adult eligibility only | Current tab session |
| Ad Network Cookies | Marketing / Tracking | Third-party ad personalization & frequency capping | Session to 12 months |
4. How to Control or Clear Cookies
Clearing site data also resets subscription-invitation suppression and remembered age eligibility. Subscribe links open YouTube, whose own storage policies apply after you follow the link.
You have complete control over how cookies and local storage are handled:
- Browser Controls: You can block cookies or wipe site data (including video progress cache) at any time through your browser settings (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge).
- Ad Personalization Opt-Out: You can opt out of personalized third-party advertising via aboutads.info/choices or Your Online Choices.
5. Updates to This Policy
We may update this policy periodically to reflect changes in our streaming technology or ad partner configurations.
