Unlike platforms that compile persistent user profiles, Track My Parcel minimizes browser storage. We use local client-side memory to keep track of your recent parcel lookups on your device, avoiding unnecessary account sign-ups or server-side identity tracking.
1. Client-Side Functional Storage
Essential for practical day-to-day usability. We utilize HTML5 localStorage to cache recently entered consignment numbers directly on your device.
- Allows you to re-check multi-carrier shipments with a single tap without re-typing 12-digit codes.
- This data never leaves your personal browser and can be wiped instantly at any time.
2. Interface & Session Preferences
Short-lived session memory tokens (sessionStorage) remember your interactions during an active browsing session:
- Remembers when you dismiss the top independent disclaimer banner so it stays hidden while you navigate.
- Session tokens are automatically discarded as soon as you close your browser tab.
3. Security & Rate-Limiting Tokens
To protect our server infrastructure and downstream carrier APIs from automated credential-stuffing or malicious scrapers, temporary edge tokens analyze request velocity:
- Prevents distributed denial of service attacks by enforcing sensible rate brackets (e.g. 30 requests/minute).
- Protects the availability of free parcel tracking for authentic consumers across Pakistan.
4. Third-Party Advertising Cookies
Third-party advertising services (including Google AdSense) may set cookies on your system to manage ad delivery:
- Controls ad repetition so you do not see identical commercials repeatedly.
- Detects fraudulent bot traffic and verifies authentic impression engagement.

Frequently Asked Questions About Site Storage
Answers to common security and privacy inquiries regarding tracking data storage.
Are my searched consignment numbers stored permanently on Track My Parcel servers?
No. Your recent search history is saved exclusively within your individual web browser’s local storage (localStorage). Our backend servers do not log or maintain persistent records linking your IP address with the parcels you search.
What happens if I disable cookies and local storage in my browser?
You can still track parcels successfully. However, your browser will not remember your recently queried consignment numbers for quick one-click re-checking, and you may see repeated informational disclaimer banners across page reloads.
Does Track My Parcel use tracking cookies to follow me across other websites?
Track My Parcel does not operate first-party cross-site surveillance cookies. However, third-party advertising partners such as Google AdSense may place standard programmatic marketing cookies under their own independently audited privacy policies.
How do I erase my saved parcel tracking numbers from my phone or computer?
You can click the "Clear History" button directly within our tracking search module, or clear your browser’s site storage and cookies for trackmyparcel.pk via your browser settings.
How often does Track My Parcel update its cookie disclosures?
We review our storage usage whenever new features or third-party infrastructure integrations are introduced. Any revisions are immediately published here with updated operational documentation.
