What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and provide information to the owners of the site.
Why We Use Cookies
Cookies help us provide you with a better browsing experience by remembering your preferences and understanding how you use our site.
Your Consent Choices
Analytics cookies are off by default. This site uses Google Consent Mode v2: until you accept via the cookie banner shown on your first visit, analytics storage is set to denied and no Google Analytics cookies are placed. You can accept or decline, and you can change your choice at any time by clearing your browser storage for this site. Declining does not affect the essential functionality of the site.
Types of Storage We Use
Essential (local storage, not cookies)
A couple of small preferences are stored in your browser's local storage — not cookies — and are never sent to a server:
- Theme Preference: Remembers your dark/light mode choice
- Consent Choice: Remembers whether you accepted or declined analytics, so the banner doesn't reappear
Analytics Cookies (only after you accept)
If you accept, we use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our website:
- Number of visitors and page views
- Time spent on each page
- Traffic sources and referrals
- Device and browser information
Google Analytics Cookies
This information is aggregated and anonymous. The specific cookies used include:
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Expires |
|---|---|---|
_ga | Distinguishes unique users | 2 years |
_gid | Distinguishes unique users | 24 hours |
_gat | Throttles request rate | 1 minute |
Third-Party Services
When you use our website, you may also interact with third-party services:
- Google Fonts: Typography is loaded from Google Fonts, which means your browser makes a request to Google to fetch the font files
- Cloudflare Turnstile: The contact form uses Cloudflare Turnstile for spam protection, which may set a token to verify you are human
