How we use them
We sort cookies into three categories:
- 01Strictly necessary: needed for the site to work and stay secure, or for something you asked for, like staying signed in. They are always on.
- 02Analytics: help us understand which pages are useful and how fast they load. Off until you allow them.
- 03Third-party services: tools from other companies that we embed, such as our scheduler. Off until you allow them.

Analytics
| Service | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
_ga | Google LLC | Google Analytics. Distinguishes visitors with a random identifier so we can count returning visits | 2 years |
_ga_<id> | Google LLC | Google Analytics. Keeps track of your current visit (session) to our site | 2 years |
| Web Analytics | Vercel Inc. | Counts page views, referring sites, country, and device type. Uses no cookies. Visitors are counted with a hash of the request that is discarded after 24 hours, so you cannot be followed across sites or days | No cookie stored |
| Speed Insights | Vercel Inc. | Measures how quickly pages load and respond on real devices | No cookie stored |
Google Analytics runs in Consent Mode: it does not load at all until you allow analytics, advertising storage stays denied, and Google signals are off. If you later switch analytics off, we tell Google to stop storing data and delete its cookies from your browser. Vercel tools store no cookies but still collect usage data, so they also wait for your consent.
Third-party services
| Service | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Scheduler on the contact page | Calendly LLC | Lets you book a call. Calendly may set its own cookies inside the embedded scheduler | Set by Calendly, see its cookie policy |
If you have not allowed third-party services, the scheduler does not load. You can still book by opening Calendly in a new tab, or contact us directly.

We ask again when this policy changes in a way that affects your choices.
