// Short. Honest. No surprises.
Most cookie policies are long because companies use a lot of cookies. Ours is short because we don't. Here's exactly what's on this site and why.

01 — What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website when you visit it. They are widely used to make websites work, remember your preferences, and — in many cases — track behaviour across the internet for advertising purposes.
We use cookies only for the first reason: making the website work correctly. The other uses don't fit our model or our values.
02 — Cookies on This Site
These cookies are required for basic site functionality. Without them, parts of the site may not work as expected. They do not track you across other websites and contain no personally identifiable information.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| _session | Maintains your session state while navigating the site (e.g., tab selections on pricing page) | Session (deleted when browser closes) | First-party |
| cf_clearance | Set by Cloudflare (our hosting/CDN provider) for security and bot protection. Does not track personal behaviour. | 30 days | Third-party (Cloudflare) |
| __cf_bm | Cloudflare bot management cookie. Distinguishes humans from automated bots to protect site integrity. | 30 minutes | Third-party (Cloudflare) |
We use Google Analytics (GA4) to count aggregate page traffic — how many visitors the site receives and which pages they view. This helps us understand whether the site is functioning correctly. No personal profiles are built and the data is not used for advertising.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics — distinguishes unique visitors for aggregate traffic counting. Does not identify you personally. | 2 years | Third-party (Google) |
| _gid | Google Analytics — distinguishes unique sessions. Used alongside _ga for accurate visit counting. | 24 hours | Third-party (Google) |
| _ga_* | Google Analytics GA4 — persists session state for the analytics property (G-J31Z05DB01). | 2 years | Third-party (Google) |
03 — Third-Party Services
This site loads a small number of external resources. External services used for analytics collect aggregate traffic data only and are not used for advertising or individual profiling:
04 — Your Control
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:
Instructions for major browsers:
Because the only cookies on this site are functional ones required for basic operation, disabling them may affect some interactive elements (such as the pricing tab switcher) but will not prevent you from reading content or contacting us.
05 — Legal Basis
For visitors from the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom, our legal basis for the essential cookies described in this policy is legitimate interest — specifically, the interest in operating a functional, secure website. These cookies do not process personal data in a way that overrides your rights and freedoms.
We do not use cookies that require your consent under GDPR (i.e., non-essential advertising or tracking cookies). If this changes in the future, this policy will be updated and an appropriate consent mechanism will be implemented before any such cookies are placed.
06 — Changes
If we ever add new cookies to this site — for any reason — we will update this policy before doing so. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page will reflect any changes. We will not introduce non-essential cookies without updating this policy and, where required by law, obtaining your consent first.
