Cookie Policy

Last updated: December 30, 2025

1) What Cookies Are

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites function properly and help site owners understand how the site is being used.

No, they are not edible.

2) How We Use Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

A) Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors use the site (such as pages viewed, navigation paths, and general performance).

Analytics cookies may collect information such as:

  • pages visited
  • time spent on pages
  • device and browser type
  • approximate location (based on IP address)
  • referral source (how you arrived at the site)

This data is aggregated and used to improve site structure and content—not to personally identify you.

B) Site Functionality & Security

Some cookies are necessary for the website to function correctly, including:

  • basic WordPress functionality
  • security features
  • performance and stability

Without these, parts of the site may not behave as expected.

C) Embedded Content

Pages may include embedded content (such as videos).
Embedded content from other websites may set their own cookies and collect data according to their own privacy policies.

We don’t control those cookies—but we do try to keep embeds minimal.

3) Third-Party Cookies

Third-party services used on this site (such as Google Analytics) may place cookies on your device. These cookies are governed by the policies of those third parties, not ours.

For more information, see:

  • Google Analytics Privacy Policy

For more details on how we handle data, see our Privacy Policy.

4) Managing Cookies

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:

  • block all cookies
  • block third-party cookies
  • delete existing cookies

Be aware that blocking cookies may cause parts of the site to function less gracefully.
(Not maliciously. Just… awkwardly.)

5) Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy as the site evolves. When we do, we’ll update the “Last updated” date at the top of the page.
