What are cookies
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and supply information to site owners.
Cookies can be "first-party" (set by the website you are visiting) or "third-party" (set by a service used by the website, such as an analytics provider).
Cookies we use
We use a minimal number of cookies, primarily for analytics purposes. We do not use cookies for advertising or tracking you across other websites.
| Cookie | Provider | Duration |
|---|---|---|
_ga | Google Analytics | 2 years |
_ga_* | Google Analytics | 2 years |
Purpose of each cookie
_ga
This cookie is set by Google Analytics 4 and is used to distinguish unique visitors to our site. It generates a random, unique identifier for each visitor and is used to calculate visitor, session, and campaign data for our site analytics reports. This cookie does not contain any personally identifiable information.
_ga_*(e.g., _ga_XXXXXXXXXX)
This cookie is specific to our Google Analytics 4 property and is used to persist session state. It helps us understand how users navigate between pages during a single visit and tracks aggregate usage patterns. The asterisk represents our unique GA4 measurement ID.
Third-party cookies
Our analytics cookies are set by Google Analytics, a third-party service. Google may use the data collected to contextualize and personalize ads in its own advertising network, though we have configured our GA4 implementation to anonymize IP addresses.
When you click on an affiliate link and visit a third-party financial product provider, that provider may set their own cookies. These are outside our control and are governed by the respective provider's cookie policy. We do not set any affiliate tracking cookies ourselves.
