Cookies

Last reviewed 27 July 2026. Written to be read rather than to be survived — if any of it is unclear, tell us and we will rewrite the paragraph.

The short version

No advertising cookies, no cross-site tracking, no analytics profile.

Fonts

Typefaces load from Google Fonts, which involves a request to Google's servers from your browser.

Why this page is so short

Most cookie policies are long because most sites run advertising and analytics.

What is not stored

No advertising identifiers. No cross-site tracking. No analytics cookie. No session cookie — the site is static and has no sessions to keep. No third-party cookie of any kind is set by us.

Fonts and what that means

Typefaces are loaded from Google Fonts, which means your browser makes a request to Google's servers to fetch the font files. That request carries your IP address and user agent the way any web request does, and it is governed by Google's own policies rather than ours. If you block third-party font loading, the site falls back to your system fonts and remains fully readable — the layout is built to survive it.

Images and other assets

Photographs, stylesheets, scripts and the site's SVG artwork are all served from this domain. There is no image CDN, no video embed and no social embed anywhere on the site, so no third party is contacted to render a page beyond the font request described above.

If your organisation needs a formal statement

You may treat this page as our full cookie disclosure. If a compliance team needs it in a particular format, write to us and we will provide it — the underlying facts will be exactly the ones above.

Local storage versus cookies, since the distinction matters

A cookie is sent to the server with every request; local storage is not sent anywhere at all unless a script deliberately transmits it.

Third-party requests, listed in full

For completeness, here is every external request a page on this site can make: two connections to Google's font hosts to fetch the typefaces. That is the entire list.

Verifying all of this yourself

Open your browser's developer tools, go to the storage or application panel, and look at this domain. In the network panel you will see requests for this site's own HTML, CSS, images and one small script, plus two requests to Google's font hosts.

We would rather you checked than believed us. Everything on this site is built to be verifiable — company facts link back to the page they were read from, rankings state the criteria behind them, and this page describes something you can confirm in your own browser in under a minute.

How this page relates to the rest of the site

Our editorial standards — what we verify, what we refuse to publish and how corrections work — are set out separately in the editorial policy, and the criteria behind every ranking are on how we rank. Our commercial interest is declared on the about page, and our lack of any connection to Ad 2 Hawaiʻi is stated in full on the non-affiliation statement. Between those four pages and this one, there should be nothing about how this site operates that you have to guess at.

Questions about this page

If a compliance process needs something this page does not cover, ask and we will answer specifically rather than in boilerplate.
