Mini Kit and Newsletter Browser Storage

Updated November 13, 2026. These functions run on our separate Mini Kit and newsletter tool. The previous Mini Kit address remains available for earlier saved checklists and links. Browser storage is separate at each address and from the main WordPress domain. The main site’s Cookie Settings do not remove it.

Legacy PDF-access cookie — __Host-ww-kitpass: Earlier versions issued this secure, HttpOnly cookie for up to 30 days. Existing cookies may remain until their original expiry, but the current tool does not read, renew or require them for PDF access. Historical contact and access records have not been deleted by this change. PDFs are free without an email, including on your first visit. Removing this legacy cookie never means you will need to enter your email again.

Form security — __Host-ww-kitform: A secure, HttpOnly cookie used to protect PDF, subscription and preference forms against forged requests. It lasts up to 2 hours from issuance and may be replaced when you open another protected form. Blocking it may prevent a form from submitting.

Optional saved checklist — wanderwise-travel-ready-web-v1: Local storage is written only when you select “Save my progress” or “Copy my saved checklist.” It contains your trip selections and checked items, not your email address. There is no automatic expiry; it remains until you confirm “Delete saved progress,” clear this tool’s site data, or your browser removes it. You can use the checklist and download a PDF without saving progress. The optional transfer copies your trip choices and checked items from the previous address only after you choose to do so. It keeps the earlier copy and does not replace an existing saved record at the new address or copy analytics permission.

These functions support the tool you choose to use and are not advertising or cross-site tracking storage. Temporary server-side request counters help prevent misuse; they are not browser cookies. To clear the cookies or saved checklist yourself, use your browser’s site-data controls for kit.boardingnotes.com and, if you used the previous address, kit.thewanderwise.com. Clearing this storage does not delete server-side email records or unsubscribe you. For those choices, use the email preference link or contact hello@boardingnotes.com.

See our email-record retention and deletion explanation and the Mini Kit privacy explanation (also available at the previous address).

Mini Kit analytics choices

The separate Mini Kit stores your allow/decline choice in ww-kit-analytics-v1 for up to 180 days. Only after you allow analytics does it load Google Analytics and permit _ga and _ga_* cookies, configured for up to 180 days without extending that period on each visit.

Use Mini Kit Analytics settings or the previous address’s Analytics settings to change your choice at that address. Analytics permission is not copied between addresses. Turning analytics off removes its measurement document and its Google Analytics cookies. It does not erase information already sent to Google, change the main website’s cookie settings, unsubscribe you from emails or affect PDF access.

Cloudflare performance measurement

Cloudflare Web Analytics provides cookie-free performance measurement, separate from Google Analytics. We use its “Enable, excluding visitor data in the EU” setting. The exclusion is based on Cloudflare’s connection routing. See the Cloudflare Web Analytics section of our Privacy Policy for details.
