Cookie Policy

1. What are cookies

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your browser. They allow, for example, maintaining preferences or measuring audience. Not all technologies described here are cookies in the strict sense: local storage (localStorage) serves a similar function and is covered by this policy.

2. Current status

This website does not use cookies for audience measurement, profiling, or advertising. Specifically:

• No analytics cookies are placed (e.g., Google Analytics, Plausible, Fathom).
• No marketing or third-party cookies are placed (e.g., Meta, Google Ads).
• No cookie consent banner is used because, as of this version, there are no non-essential cookies requiring your consent. If that changes, a consent mechanism will be presented in accordance with GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive.

3. Strictly necessary technologies

A single local storage technology is used, exempt from consent as it is necessary for the basic functioning of the interface:

• Theme preference — stored in localStorage (key pm-theme) to remember the chosen light/dark theme. Never leaves your browser.

4. Third-party cookies

No third-party cookies are placed. Embedded content (e.g., external links to LinkedIn or the Google Play Store) may set their own cookies when you interact with them on those sites; such processing is governed by their respective policies, not ours.

5. Managing cookies

You can clear or block cookies and local storage in your browser settings. Only the theme preference will be affected (the site will return to the default theme).

6. Changes to this policy

If non-essential cookies are introduced (for example, with the addition of analytics), this policy and the Privacy Policy will be updated and an appropriate consent mechanism will be presented.
