Cookies Policy
Last updated 23 August 2026
A cookie is a small text file a website leaves in your browser so it can recognise the same browser later. This site uses very few of them, and none of them are used to build an advertising profile of you.
What is actually set
| Cookie | Set by | What it does | How long |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics | Tells returning visits apart from new ones, using a random identifier | 2 years |
| _ga_N8936LC6CN | Google Analytics | Keeps the session state for this specific property | 2 years |
| Calendly cookies | Calendly | Only on the inquire page, and only so the booking calendar works | Varies, set by Calendly |
There are no advertising cookies, no retargeting pixels, and no cross site tracking on this site.
Why analytics is here at all
It answers one question: which pages are worth keeping. It tells me that a page was read, roughly which country the reader was in, and whether they arrived from search, social, or a link. It does not tell me who you are, and I cannot use it to identify you.
Turning them off
You have three options, and all of them work:
- Block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Every major browser can do this, per site.
- Install the Google Analytics opt out add on, which stops the analytics cookie everywhere, not just here.
- Turn on Do Not Track or use a browser that blocks trackers by default.
Nothing on this site breaks if you block cookies. Every page still reads and every form still submits.
Third party pages
When you click through to Calendly, Brevo, or any other site linked from here, their cookie rules apply, not mine.
Changes
If I add or remove a tool that sets cookies, this table changes and so does the date at the top.
