Cookies

Google Analytics 4 runs on every page of this site, but it doesn’t set a cookie — every storage signal starts denied for every visitor by default, and nothing here ever changes that. If this site ever adds advertising, that will happen through a proper consent mechanism, and this page will be rewritten first.

Cookies we set now

None that track you. Google Analytics 4 runs on this site now, but it runs cookieless — no analytics cookie, and on an ordinary visit nothing written to your device — because every storage signal here, including the one it would use, is denied by default for every visitor and nothing on this site ever grants it. The only other thing this page loads is the strictly necessary storage a static page may use to function. There is one exception, described below rather than passed over in silence: the gr_int flag, which is written only if you deliberately open a page with ?internal=1 appended.

Why there’s no cookie banner

Because there’s nothing here to consent to. Every storage signal this site could use — including the one Google Analytics 4 would use — starts denied for every visitor, wherever they connect from, and this site carries no banner that could switch any of them on. That’s one blanket refusal, not a country-by-country setting, and nothing here changes it. If that ever changes — analytics storage extended, or advertising introduced — this page is rewritten before it happens, not after.

Excluding our own visits

One exception, named here rather than passed over in silence: on every page view the measurement code checks whether the gr_int flag is present in your browser. That is our own exclusion for internal visits, so that our test traffic does not end up in the figures. It is written only when a page is opened with ?internal=1 appended — as a cookie with a lifetime of one year, and additionally in local storage. Without that, nothing is written, and nothing on this site links to it. It holds a single flag and nothing about you. You delete it by clearing this site’s data in your browser.
