Current State
The public website uses two audience measurement tools:
- Vercel Web Analytics produces aggregated traffic statistics (pages viewed, referrer, country, device and browser type). It sets no cookie, stores no persistent identifier on your device and is active by default.
- Google Analytics 4 sets cookies and is only activated after your explicit consent via the cookie banner.
No advertising or marketing cookies are used.
Consent and Banner
Should a non-essential tracker be added in the future, it will be blocked by default and the banner will offer at minimum:
- a clear description of the tracker's purpose (audience measurement, marketing, personalisation);
- Accept, Decline, and Customise buttons;
- scripts loaded only after explicit consent;
- timestamped consent evidence with the version of the text presented.
Managing Your Preferences
You can update your cookie preferences at any time via the Manage cookies link at the bottom of every page.
If you withdraw consent, the relevant scripts will no longer be loaded on your subsequent visits.
