What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website saves to your device when you visit. They are widely used to make sites work correctly and to help site owners understand how their sites are used.

Cookies this site uses

This site uses two categories of cookies: essential cookies and analytics cookies.

Essential cookies

CookiePurposeDuration
_I_ Set by the site's hosting provider, SiteGround. Some visitors receive it, for example when browsing through a VPN. 30 days

Analytics cookies

This site uses Google Analytics (GA4) to understand how visitors find and use the site. GA4 sets the following cookies:

CookiePurposeDuration
_ga Distinguishes unique users by assigning a randomly generated number as a client identifier 2 years
_ga_[ID] Used by GA4 to persist session state 2 years

Accessibility widget storage

The UserWay accessibility widget saves its settings in your browser's local storage, not in cookies. This includes the widget's display settings and language, and a random identifier the widget assigns to your browser. These stay until you clear your browser's site data.

No advertising cookies are in use on this site. Google Analytics and UserWay process data under their own privacy policies.

Your choices

You can set your browser to block or delete cookies. Note that blocking essential cookies may affect how the site displays, and blocking analytics cookies will prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about your visit. All major browsers allow you to manage cookies in their settings.

Changes to this policy

I update this policy when the cookies on this site change. The date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.
