This site doesn't use cookies

Last updated: [DATE OF PUBLICATION]

No banner, no "manage preferences", no pop-up covering the page on your first visit. There is nothing to consent to, because nothing here is watching you.

What that actually means

• No cookies of any kind. Not analytics, not advertising, not "essential" ones either. This site has nothing to remember about you.
• No analytics. No Google Analytics, no Meta pixel, no heatmaps, no session recording. I do not know who visits this site or what they clicked.
• No third-party requests. The typefaces are served from this domain, not from Google Fonts. No CDN, no embedded video, no chat widget, no social buttons. Your browser talks to this site and to nothing else.
• No local storage. Nothing is written to your device.

The whole site loads in eight requests and 162 KB. That is not an accident, and it is the same standard I hold client sites to.

Why there is no banner

Under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations, consent is needed when a site stores information on your device or reads what is already there. This one does neither, so asking would be theatre. Most cookie banners exist because the site has something to ask about.

What my hosting provider sees

Serving a web page requires the server to receive your IP address and browser type — that is how the internet works, and it is true of every website you have ever visited. My host, [HOSTING PROVIDER, e.g. Cloudflare], handles that as part of delivering the page and keeping it online. I do not build reports from it and I do not use it to identify anyone.

If this ever changes

If I add analytics later — and I might, since I tell clients to measure their own sites — then a real consent banner goes up first, it defaults to off, and nothing non-essential loads until you choose. This page gets rewritten the same day, not months afterwards.
