Overview
Local storage keys store data in the browser's local storage to save account configurations and visitor states. Unlike cookies, local storage keys are not sent with every HTTP request. They are used only by Wingify’s client-side JavaScript libraries to persist information across sessions or page reloads.
Note: Local storage keys persist in the browser until they are deleted manually or programmatically.
Wingify Dependencies on Local Storage Keys
Wingify relies on local storage keys to ensure the proper functioning of its features, such as tracking user behavior, preserving configurations, and managing experiment states. These keys help Wingify deliver a seamless and consistent user experience across pages and sessions.
