What cookies are
Cookies are small files a website saves in your browser. Similar storage, such as local storage, works in the same way. Some are needed for a site to work; others, such as analytics cookies, are optional.

| _ga, _ga_* | Cookie (Google Analytics) | Counts visits and shows which pages are used, so we can improve the site. | Yes, only set if you accept |

Vercel Analytics and Speed Insights measure how fast pages load and how many people visit. They do not use cookies.
Changing your choice
When you first visit, a small panel asks whether you accept analytics and advertising cookies. Google Analytics and the Google Ads tag do not load at all until you accept. You can change your mind at any time: use the button below (or “Cookie settings” at the foot of every page) and the panel will ask again. If you reject after accepting, the analytics and advertising cookies this site set are removed. You can also block cookies in your browser, although some parts of the site may then not work as expected.
