No account required by default
Standalone RanchAssist tools are designed to work without requiring a user account.
No permanent RanchAssist project database by default
RanchAssist does not permanently store ranch, herd, financial, map, or standalone project data on RanchAssist servers by default.
Active session
The browser may use sessionStorage to protect active work from accidental refresh or same-tab navigation. This is temporary session resilience, not long-term saving.
Long-term user-controlled saving
Stateful tools support local .ra project files. The user chooses when to create the file and controls where it is stored on the device.
Exports and sharing
PDF, CSV, PNG, GeoJSON, Print, Email, and Copy Summary are user-initiated outputs. They serve different purposes from project saving.
Clear Session
Clearing a session removes the active browser project state but does not delete files already saved to the user's device.
