Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, to remember your preferences, and to provide site owners with useful information.

This website uses a two-tier analytics model. Before you decide on cookies, a minimal anonymous page-view event is sent with no cookies, no localStorage writes, and no tracking IDs. After accepting analytics, a richer anonymous event is sent and a random anonymous Visitor ID, Session ID, and first-visit timestamp are written to your browser's local storage so that repeat visits can be counted. If you reject analytics, only the pre-consent minimal signal is sent.

This website uses cookies and similar browser storage for a small number of purposes: keeping you signed in, remembering your preferences (such as your language and theme), and — only when you grant consent — recording anonymous visit statistics. The minimal pre-consent page-view event is always sent and does not depend on cookies.

We group the cookies and storage used by this website into three categories. You can accept all, reject all, or customize your selection from the consent banner at any time.

This website primarily uses your browser's local storage and a small set of first-party cookies. The values used are:

• ab_vid — random anonymous Visitor ID (local storage).
• ab_sid — random anonymous Session ID (local storage).
• ab_first_visit — timestamp of the first time you visited (local storage).
• ab_consent — record of your cookie consent choices (local storage).
• ab_consent_v — version of the consent schema that was last accepted (local storage).
• next-auth / auth cookies — strictly required to keep you signed in if you choose to sign in with Google.
• ab_consent — small first-party cookie mirroring the consent category, used so the server can be aware that consent was set in this browser.

You can control cookies in several ways. You can use the Accept, Reject, and Customize options in the consent banner that appears on your first visit. You can also clear your browser's storage at any time, or use your browser's privacy settings to block or delete cookies.

Most modern browsers let you view, manage, and delete cookies from their settings. The exact steps depend on your browser:

• Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data.
• Mozilla Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data.
• Apple Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data.
• Microsoft Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Cookies and site data.

This Cookie Policy may be updated from time to time. The latest version will always be available on this page.
