Cookie policy
The public site is designed to work without advertising, personalization, or analytics cookies.
What this site sets
A cookie is a small value stored by your browser. This site uses one first-party cookie only when it is technically necessary for security or protected timeline access.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
session |
Protects forms and remembers that an approved visitor completed timeline verification. It stores an authentication flag, not the visitor’s email address. | Until the browser session ends, or until logout. |
The cookie is marked HttpOnly and SameSite=Lax, and it is marked Secure in production.
Analytics
Plausible Analytics is used for aggregate traffic measurement. It does not set analytics cookies and does not create cross-site advertising profiles. Because no optional analytics cookies are set, the site does not show a cookie-consent banner.
Embedded services
Embedded services are operated by third parties and may use their own storage under their policies:
- YouTube videos use the privacy-enhanced
youtube-nocookie.comdomain. YouTube may store information after you interact with a video. - CARTO and OpenStreetMap receive requests needed to render maps. They may process technical request information according to their own policies.
- Following social, event, or conference links may allow those destination sites to set their own cookies.
Managing cookies
You can inspect, block, or remove cookies through your browser settings. Blocking the necessary session cookie does not affect public articles, but protected timeline login will not work.
For more information about how related data is handled, read the privacy policy.
Changes and questions
This policy will be updated if the site begins using different cookies or embedded services. Questions can be sent through LinkedIn.
