INTRODUCTION

This Cookie Policy explains how CAPSLOCKZ ("we", "us", "our", or the "Service") uses cookies and browser-based storage technologies across capslockz.com.

WHAT ARE COOKIES

Cookies are miniature alphanumeric data files placed on your computer, tablet, or mobile device by websites you visit. They function as reliable state memory, enabling the platform to remember your navigation preferences, selected language (TH/EN), and security session across pages.

Cookies cannot harm your hardware, execute malware, or access sensitive files. We never use cookies to store plain-text passwords or financial credentials.

CATEGORIES OF COOKIES WE USE

We classify our cookies into four functional tiers based on global web privacy standards:

Cookie Category
