1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your preferences and understand how you interact with it.
2. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:
Essential Storage (No Consent Required)
These are strictly necessary for the website to function and cannot be disabled.
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| theme | Stores your light/dark mode preference | Persistent | localStorage |
| locale | Stores your language preference | Persistent | localStorage |
| bool-consent | Stores your cookie consent preferences | 365 days | localStorage |
Cloudflare Turnstile may also set cookies when you interact with a form captcha. These are strictly necessary for bot prevention and cannot be disabled.
Analytics Cookies (Consent Required)
These help us understand how visitors use our website so we can improve it. They are only activated when you consent to the "Analytics" category.
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Provider |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Distinguishes unique users | 2 years | Google Analytics |
| _ga_* | Maintains session state | 2 years | Google Analytics |
Google Analytics is configured with IP anonymisation enabled. Analytics scripts run off the main thread via Partytown and are only loaded after you grant consent.
Error Monitoring (Consent Required)
We use Sentry for error monitoring, which may store technical diagnostic data and, when an error occurs, a masked session replay (all text, form inputs, and media are hidden so no personal data is captured). This is only activated when you consent to the "Analytics" category, and it is disabled again if you withdraw that consent.
Marketing (Consent Required)
We do not currently use marketing cookies, so no marketing option is shown in the consent banner. If we introduce them in the future, we will add a Marketing option to the banner, update this policy, and request your consent before any marketing cookies are set.
3. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are placed by third-party services we use:
- Google Analytics — analytics cookies as described above.
- Cloudflare Turnstile — may set cookies when you interact with a form captcha. These are necessary for bot prevention and do not track you across sites.
4. Managing Your Preferences
You can manage your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the "Cookie preferences" link in the footer of any page. This will reopen the consent banner where you can change your choices.
You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Note that blocking all cookies may affect website functionality.
5. Consent Duration
Your consent preferences are stored locally on your device for 365 days. After this period, you will be asked to consent again. We will also ask you to consent again if we materially change the cookies or third-party services we use. You can change or withdraw your consent at any time, and withdrawing analytics consent removes the related analytics cookies on your next page load.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in our practices or for legal, operational, or regulatory reasons. The "Last updated" date at the top indicates the most recent revision.
