Cookie policy

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser to remember things about you, such as a login, your preferences, or which pages you have visited. Similar technologies include local storage and tracking pixels. In this policy, “cookies” covers all of them.

Cookies we use

None. The site does not set cookies or use similar storage, in any part of the site, for any purpose:

• no analytics or audience measurement;
• no advertising or retargeting;
• no social media tracking pixels;
• no accounts or logins that would need a session cookie.

Features that might normally rely on cookies work without them. For example, the archive search runs entirely in your browser and doesn’t save what you type.

Third parties

Post images and videos are loaded from Instagram’s servers, run by Meta Platforms. Loading them is not designed to set cookies, but if your browser already holds Instagram or Facebook cookies, for example because you are logged in to Instagram, your browser may send them with those requests. That is controlled by Meta, not by us, and is covered by Instagram’s cookie policy.

If you follow a link from our site, such as a share button or “View on Instagram”, the site you arrive at may set its own cookies under its own policy.

Managing cookies in your browser

You can see, block and delete cookies in your browser’s settings, and most browsers can block third-party cookies altogether. Doing so won’t affect how this site works. Your browser’s help pages explain how: Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge.

If this changes

If we ever add cookies, for example for audience measurement, we will update this page first and, where the law requires it, ask for your consent before setting any that aren’t strictly necessary.
