Cookie Policy

Last updated: August 2026

1. What We Use

We keep this site deliberately light. We do not currently run third-party analytics, advertising, or social media trackers. What we do use is listed below — a mix of cookies and browser localStorage (small values stored by your browser).

2. Analytics & Marketing

Our consent banner includes Analytics and Marketing categories so your choice is already recorded if we introduce such tools later. Today, no analytics or marketing cookies are set regardless of your selection. If that changes, we will update this table and re-prompt for consent.

3. Managing Your Preferences

Use the Cookie Settings button in the footer to reopen the preferences panel at any time. You can also clear cookies and site data through your browser settings; doing so will reset your consent choices, theme, and any saved chat conversation.
