The short version
Google Analytics is optional and loads after you accept. We remember your choice in local storage. The site also uses Vercel’s cookieless traffic and performance measurement and ordinary hosting logs, which are separate from that choice.
Cookies are small browser files. Local storage is another way to remember information on your device; session storage normally lasts only for the current tab session. These technologies can have different purposes.
What this site stores
| Storage | Purpose | When / duration |
|---|---|---|
| Consent preference | Remembers whether Google Analytics is allowed. | After your choice; until you change it or clear site data. |
| Google Analytics cookies | Measure visits and site interactions. Names normally begin with _ga. | After acceptance; expiry depends on Google Analytics settings and renewal. |
| Referral storage | Remembers an AI referral source and avoids repeat reporting in the same session. | After analytics acceptance; first-touch storage remains until cleared, session storage ends with the tab session. |
| Interface preferences | Remember dismissed messages. | When the feature is used; some persist until site data is cleared. |
| Security / authenticated features | Hosting protection or restricted administrator features may use necessary session information. | When required for the relevant feature. |
What switching Google Analytics off does
The controls above save your new choice, clear accessible Google Analytics cookies set for this site and reload the page so an already loaded analytics script is stopped. They also clear our optional referral storage.
The choice applies to this browser. Repeat it on other browsers or devices. Clearing all site data also clears the saved preference, so the site may ask again. Browser settings can block or delete cookies independently; doing so may affect features.
Cookieless measurement is still measurement
Vercel Web Analytics collects traffic information without analytics cookies, while Speed Insights measures page performance. These are currently separate from the Google Analytics switch. Hosting logs and server-side referral counts do not depend on that switch either.
Read the provider’s explanations of Web Analytics privacy and Speed Insights privacy, and our privacy notice for the wider use of information.
