Cookies and Local Storage

Last updated: November 10, 2026

Storage PAWHAVEN itself uses

PAWHAVEN sets no cookies of its own. It uses your browser's storage so that your pets are there when you come back:

  • IndexedDB database "pawhaven": your pets, photos, saved scenes, letters and memories.
  • localStorage "pawhaven.current": which pet is open. "pawhaven.edit" is set for a moment when you choose to edit a pet.
  • sessionStorage "pawhaven.start": the name and species typed on the home page, until the next screen reads them.

None of this is sent anywhere. Delete it from the My pets page or by clearing site data in your browser.

Google cookies

Google Analytics may set the cookies _ga and _ga_<ID> (up to two years) to tell visits apart.

On guide articles, Google AdSense may set advertising cookies once ads are running. PAWHAVEN's garden, character maker and album pages do not load advertising.

Consent

For visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, analytics and advertising storage start as denied (Google Consent Mode v2) and stay denied unless you agree in the consent message. Elsewhere you can block these cookies in your browser settings; the site works fully without them.
