Cookie Policy

Last updated: July 30, 2026

This website uses a small number of cookies and similar technologies. This policy explains exactly what is set, what each item does, how long it lasts, and how you can refuse or remove it. We do not use advertising cookies, we do not build advertising profiles, and we do not sell or share your information with data brokers.

Your Choice Comes First

The first time you visit, a banner asks whether you consent to analytics. No analytics cookie is set unless you choose “Accept.” Until you make a choice — and permanently, if you choose “Decline” — analytics storage stays switched off. This is implemented using Google Consent Mode v2, which instructs Google’s tag not to write cookies until consent is granted.

Your choice is remembered in a single first-party cookie so that you are not asked again on every page.

Strictly Necessary

This cookie is required for the site to respect your privacy choice and cannot be switched off.

hgya-consent — records whether you accepted or declined analytics. It contains a single word, either granted or denied. It is set on this domain only, is never sent to Google or any other third party, and expires after 1 year.

Analytics — Optional, Off by Default

If you accept, this site uses Google Analytics 4 to understand which pages visitors find useful, which resources they are interested in, and where the site is confusing. This helps improve the content. The following cookies are set on this domain:

_ga — distinguishes one browser from another so repeat visits are not counted as new people. Expires after 2 years.
_ga_R51YJX0NJK — maintains session state for this specific Analytics property. Expires after 2 years.

We have deliberately restricted how Google Analytics is configured on this site:

Google Signals is disabled. Your activity here is never linked to a signed-in Google account or used for cross-device tracking.
Ad personalization is disabled. Data collected here is never used to target advertising to you, on this site or anywhere else.
IP addresses are anonymized before processing.
No personal information is sent to Google Analytics. When you submit the contact form or the revenue calculator, we record only that a submission happened and which service package was selected. Your name, email address, property details, and message text are never included in analytics data.

Google acts as our data processor for this information. See How Google uses information from sites that use its services.

Third Parties You May Encounter

These are not set by this website, but you may meet them while using it:

Stripe — if you click a purchase button, you are taken to a checkout page hosted by Stripe, which sets its own cookies for payment processing and fraud prevention. That happens on Stripe’s domain under Stripe’s privacy policy. We never see or store your card details.
FormSubmit — relays contact form and calculator submissions to our email inbox. It does not set cookies on this site.
Google Fonts — typefaces are loaded from Google’s servers, which receives your IP address as part of the request. No cookies are set.

Changing or Withdrawing Consent

You can withdraw consent at any time by clearing this site’s cookies in your browser settings. That removes the hgya-consent cookie along with any analytics cookies, and the consent banner will reappear on your next visit so you can decline.

Most browsers also let you block or delete cookies globally through their settings. Doing so will not break this website. You can additionally install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, which blocks Google Analytics across every site you visit.

This site honours the Global Privacy Control signal where your browser sends one.

Do Not Track

There is no agreed industry standard for responding to browser Do Not Track signals. Because analytics on this site is off unless you actively opt in, declining the banner achieves the same result.

Changes to This Policy

If we add or remove a cookie, this page will be updated and the “last updated” date above will change. Material changes to how analytics is used will be reflected in a fresh consent prompt.
