1. Purpose of Web Storage on Our Postal Portal

When searching for Pakistan Post EMS articles, registered packets, or UMS parcels on PakPostTracking.com, our web application deposits minimal operational files on your browser. These tools protect postal lookups against denial-of-service surges and allow your device to remember recent article barcodes.

This disclosure details what data gets stored, why it is needed, and how citizens can manage their preferences.

2. Categories of Web Data Processed

A. Operational & Infrastructure Protections

Technical tokens vital for load balancing and preventing automated postal scraping.

These items are strictly necessary for our web servers to distinguish legitimate parcel queries from malicious scripts. They carry no personally identifiable information and are cleared when you exit your browser.

B. Postal Barcode Storage (`pakpost_recent_searches_v1`)

Browser localStorage preserving up to 5 recently checked postal tracking codes.

To save you from typing long 13-character EMS or UMS barcodes repeatedly, we store your last five inquiries under pakpost_recent_searches_v1. This record resides strictly within your local device memory and is never dispatched to our backend servers.

Pressing close on the site notice saves pakpost_disclaimer_dismissed in sessionStorage, which the browser removes automatically at the end of the session.

C. Google AdSense Advertising Partners

Commercial banners supporting free public access to Pakistan Post tracking.

We collaborate with Google AdSense to sustain our server infrastructure. Google and affiliated advertising networks deploy cookies to serve ads based on general online interests and to avoid repeating the same commercial displays.
