Cookie policy

What cookies are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are used to make the site work, to remember choices, to measure usage, and (when enabled) to support marketing. Some are set by us, others by third parties whose services we use.
How we use them on this site
By default, the only cookies set are those needed for the site to function and for you to record a cookie choice. Everything else is opt-in: nothing in the analytics or advertising categories runs until you explicitly accept it through the banner or the preferences modal.
You can review and change your decision at any time by opening Cookie preferences.
Categories
Strictly necessary
Required for the site to function. They cannot be turned off.
| Cookie | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| cc_cookie | kvlrcode.com | Stores your cookie consent decision and the version of the policy you consented to. | 6 months |
Analytics
Used to understand how the site is used. Loaded only with your consent.
| Cookie | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Distinguishes unique users for Google Analytics 4. | 2 years | |
| _ga_* | Persists session state for the corresponding GA4 property. | 2 years |
Advertising
Reserved for future use. The site does not currently set advertising cookies. When this changes, the table below will list cookies from Google Ads, LinkedIn Insight, and Meta Pixel, each loaded only with your consent.
Functional
Reserved for future use, for example to remember a theme or language preference.
Google Consent Mode v2
We use Google Consent Mode v2. Before any Google tag fires, the site sends a default state of denied across analytics and advertising signals. Once you make a choice, the corresponding signals are updated. Google services adjust their behaviour accordingly. Where consent is denied for analytics, Google Analytics 4 may still receive cookie-less pings used solely for modelling aggregated insights, with no identifiers.
How to control cookies elsewhere
You can also manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. The major browsers publish their own guidance:
