Everything this site stores,
by name.

Say no and nothing changes. Say yes and these are the things that appear.

In force from 2 September 2026.

A cookie is a small file a site leaves in your browser so it can recognise the same browser later. Local storage does the same job by a different route. Both are covered here, and both are named.

This site keeps the list short. There is no advertising here, so there is nothing on this page that follows you to another site.

Nothing is stored until you choose

Analytics starts denied, so before you answer nothing is written to your device and nothing holds an identifier for you. The banner appears on your first visit, the two buttons carry equal weight, and neither is pre-selected. Decline and the site works the same, every page, every feature. Nothing is withheld from a reader who says no.

The list

Name	Kind	Set by	Lasts	What it does
`mtc_consent`	Local storage	This site	Until you clear it	Holds your answer and the moment you gave it, so you are asked once. It never leaves your browser.
`_ga`	Cookie	Google Analytics	2 years	Tells one browser from another so a returning reader is counted once. Only after you accept.
`_ga_RHLH8QF4ER`	Cookie	Google Analytics	2 years	Holds a single visit together while you move between pages. Only after you accept.
`cf_clearance`	Cookie	Cloudflare, on the contact page	Ends with the check	Proof that the bot check passed, so a person filling in the form is not asked twice. It is set by the security check itself and carries no analytics of any kind.

That is the whole list. Anything that ever joins it will appear on this table before it appears on the site.

Changing your mind

Open cookie choices at the bottom of any page. The banner comes back and whatever you pick replaces what you picked before. Declining after accepting stops the analytics tags on the spot.

Your browser can also block or clear cookies for this site, and clearing site data removes the record of your choice, so the banner will greet you as a new visitor.

Fonts, which are not a cookie

The typefaces sit on this domain and load from it. Everything the letters need is already here. They used to come from Google Fonts, which meant Google's servers saw the address of every browser that opened a page here. That call is gone.
