NeopolisNews uses cookies and browser storage technologies to operate the Platform, keep you signed in, and remember your preferences. This notice explains what we use and why. It covers the website at neopolis.news. The mobile app (iOS / Android) does not use browser cookies; it stores session tokens in encrypted device storage (Expo SecureStore).
1. Essential Cookies & Storage
These are required for the Platform to function. You cannot opt out of them without disabling the relevant feature.

| neopolis_listings | localStorage | Your saved property listings (stored locally only, never sent to our servers) | Persistent until cleared |

Weather data (Open-Meteo), air-quality data (WAQI), and traffic data (Google Routes API) are fetched server-side or as anonymous API calls — they do not set cookies in your browser.
4. No Analytics or Advertising Cookies
NeopolisNews does not currently use any third-party analytics platforms (such as Google Analytics) or advertising networks. No tracking or profiling cookies are set for marketing purposes.
5. Managing Cookies
You can control or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings. Clearing cookies and localStorage will sign you out and remove any locally cached data. Links to cookie settings for common browsers:
