Cookie Policy

What this website stores in your browser, and what it does not.

Last updated

Draft pending legal review

This document is a structured draft prepared alongside the website. It has not been reviewed by a qualified lawyer and does not constitute legal advice. It must be reviewed and completed by Canadian legal counsel - including the provincial privacy regimes and consumer protection rules that apply to this business - before the site goes live. Placeholders marked in the text need real values.

The short version

This site sets no advertising cookies and no third-party tracking cookies. Analytics load only if you accept them. If you decline, or if you simply ignore the banner, no analytics script is loaded at all - it is not loaded-but-silenced, it is not loaded.

What cookies are

Cookies are small files a website asks your browser to store. Related technologies - localStorage and sessionStorage - do a similar job. They can be used to remember a preference, keep you signed in, or measure how a site is used.

What this site uses

Strictly necessary storage

  • Your cookie choice. When you accept or decline analytics, that decision is stored in your browser's localStorage so you are not asked again on every page. It contains only the word "granted" or "denied", stays on your device, and is never sent to us.

Analytics, only with consent

  • Google Analytics 4. If configured and accepted, this sets cookies used to measure page views, which pages are read, and which calls to action are used. It is configured with IP anonymisation and with advertising and personalisation storage denied.

If no analytics measurement ID is configured for this site, no consent banner appears and no analytics cookies exist, because there is nothing to consent to.

What this site does not use

  • Advertising or retargeting cookies
  • Social media tracking pixels
  • Cross-site tracking of any kind
  • Fingerprinting

Fonts are self-hosted rather than loaded from a font provider, so visiting this site does not make a request to a third-party font service.

How to change your choice

Clear this site's data in your browser and the banner will appear again on your next visit, letting you choose differently. You can also contact us and we will confirm exactly what is in use.

Browser controls

Every major browser lets you block or delete cookies and site storage. Blocking storage entirely is fine here: the site is built to work without it, and the only consequence is that your cookie choice is not remembered between visits.

Changes

If we add a tool that sets cookies, this page is updated before it goes live. How personal information is handled more generally is covered in the privacy policy.
