Cookie notice
Two cookies, and one of them only exists if you say yes.
The short version
Nothing that tracks you runs on this site until you press Accept. That is not a courtesy, it is what UK law requires, and the banner gives Reject exactly the same weight as Accept because a banner with only an accept button is not real consent.
What actually gets set
| Cookie | Set by | What it does | When | Lasts |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| jt_consent | This website | Remembers whether you pressed Accept or Reject, so you are not asked on every page. | Set only when you press one of the two buttons. | 182 days |
| _ga, _ga_* | Google Analytics | Counts visits and tells me which pages get read. It does not tell me who you are, and IP addresses are anonymised. | Set ONLY if you press Accept. Nothing is set if you press Reject or ignore the banner. | Up to 2 years |
Changing your mind
Clear this site's cookies in your browser settings and the banner will come back on your next visit, so you can choose again. You can also turn cookies off entirely in your browser. Nothing on this site breaks if you do: the whole site works without JavaScript and without cookies.
Anything else?
There are no advertising cookies, no tracking pixels, no embedded social feeds and no third-party fonts. The typefaces are served from this domain rather than from Google, which means loading a page here does not tell Google that you visited.
If you have a question about any of this, email me atjayne@jaynetingle.com. There is more detail in the privacy notice.
