Cookie Policy
Every cookie and storage key this site can set, and what each one does.
Strictly necessary
| Name | Type | Life | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
gal-consent | localStorage | Until you clear site data | Remembers whether you accepted or refused analytics, so we stop asking. |
This is set regardless of which button you press, because it records the press. It contains one word and is never sent to a server.
Analytics — only after you accept
| Name | Type | Life | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
_ga | Cookie (Google) | 2 years | Distinguishes one browser from another for visit counting. |
_ga_* | Cookie (Google) | 2 years | Holds session state for the specific GA4 property. |
These are set only if you click Accept. Click "Essential only" and the Google script is never loaded at all — not loaded-but-disabled, not loaded in a cookieless mode. Not loaded.
What we don't set
- No advertising or retargeting cookies.
- No social media pixels.
- No cross-site trackers, fingerprinting, or session recording.
- No A/B testing or personalisation cookies.
Amazon
