Small files.
Short list.

A cookie is a small text file a website asks your browser to hang on to. It lets the site remember things between visits — your theme preference, whether you've dismissed a banner, that kind of thing.

Essential: a tiny preference cookie that remembers whether you're in light or dark mode. Without it, the toggle would reset on every page load.

Analytics: a privacy-friendly analytics tool that counts visits and page views without tracking you across other sites. No fingerprinting, no cross-site identifiers.

That's it. No ad cookies. No retargeting pixels. No third-party tag managers loading dozens of scripts.

We don't run ads on this site, so there are no ad cookies. We don't share data with ad networks. We don't load social-media trackers that watch you after you leave.

Every modern browser lets you block cookies, delete cookies, or block them for specific sites. Check your browser's settings under "Privacy" or "Site data."

If you block the preference cookie, the theme toggle will still work — it just won't remember your choice between visits.

Anywhere we'd use localStorage, sessionStorage, or similar browser-storage APIs, we treat it like a cookie for the purposes of this notice. Same rules, same disclosures.
