What we use today
Strictly necessary technical cookies are placed by our hosting and content-delivery infrastructure to serve the Site securely, route traffic across our edge network, and mitigate abuse (for example, load-balancing or DDoS-protection cookies). These cookies carry no identifiers tied to you beyond their functional purpose and are not used to build a profile of you.
Analytics cookies (Google Analytics 4). We use Google Analytics 4 to understand, in aggregate, how visitors use the Site, which content is useful, and where the Site is slow or broken. The tags drop cookies in the _ga and _ga_LJ0E5J3CF4 families with a maximum lifetime of two years. We have configured Google Analytics to anonymize IP addresses (anonymize_ip), redact ad-click identifiers (ads_data_redaction), and pass URL-based consent signals (url_passthrough) so that no advertising identifiers are collected.
Microsoft Clarity. We use Microsoft Clarity (project ID wgij2lkkis) to record anonymized session replays, heatmaps, and aggregate interaction data so we can identify usability issues and broken flows. Clarity sets the _clck and _clsk cookies (up to one year and one day respectively) along with related local-storage entries. Clarity session replays mask all text input fields, passwords, and form contents by default, and we have not enabled any features that would capture keystrokes or payment information. Clarity is operated by Microsoft Corporation, which acts as our processor.
For visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, analytics cookies default to deniedunder Google Consent Mode v2 until you grant consent. This means Google Analytics sends only anonymous, cookieless pings until consent is explicitly given, and no personal identifiers leave your browser before that point. Microsoft Clarity respects the browser’s Do Not Track signal and honors Global Privacy Control; if you wish to fully disable it, please use the browser controls or the Clarity opt-out linked below.
We will update this page before introducing any new analytics, advertising, or marketing cookies, and we will seek your consent where required by law.
Categories of cookies
For reference, the categories typically used across the web and whether they apply to this Site today:
| Category | Purpose | Used here today |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Required to serve the Site, maintain security, and preserve chosen preferences. Cannot be switched off without breaking functionality. | Yes, limited infrastructure cookies only |
| Functional | Remember non-essential preferences (e.g., UI state). | No |
| Analytics / performance | Measure how visitors interact with the Site, in aggregate. | Yes, Google Analytics 4 and Microsoft Clarity (subject to consent in EEA / UK / Switzerland) |
| Advertising / targeting | Build profiles and serve interest-based advertising across properties. | No |
Third-party cookies
The Site permits two third-party analytics providers, both acting as processors of the technical and usage data described above:
- Google LLC, via Google Analytics 4. Google’s own practices are governed by the Google Privacy Policy. We have not enabled Google Signals, advertising features, or cross-device user identification for this property.
- Microsoft Corporation, via Microsoft Clarity. Microsoft’s practices are governed by the Microsoft Privacy Statement. Clarity’s own disclosures are published at the Clarity cookie list. We run Clarity with default text-masking enabled.
No advertising, remarketing, or social-media tracking cookies are permitted on the Site.
If you click a link that takes you to a third-party site (for example, a social platform in our footer), that third party’s cookies will be governed by their policies, not this one.
Your choices
You have several ways to opt out of or control analytics cookies:
- In the EEA, UK, or Switzerland: analytics cookies are denied by default. They are set only if you grant consent through our cookie banner (when available).
- Google Analytics opt-out: install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, which blocks Google Analytics on every site you visit.
- Microsoft Clarity opt-out: use the Microsoft privacy controls, enable Global Privacy Control in your browser, or block
clarity.msat the network level. - Do Not Track / Global Privacy Control: see the GPC section below.
Independently, you can control cookies through your browser settings at any time:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Third-party cookies
- Safari: Settings → Privacy
- Firefox:Settings → Privacy & Security
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Cookies and site data
Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent portions of the Site from functioning.
Global Privacy Control (GPC)
We honor Global Privacy Control signals where required by applicable law. Because we do not sell personal information or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, a GPC signal does not currently change our practices; however, we will continue to honor it as an opt-out if our practices change.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. If we introduce new categories of cookies, we will provide prominent notice and, where required, obtain your consent.
