Cookies policy
1. Cookies and similar technologies
Cookies are small files stored by a browser. Local storage and session storage are related technologies that store information on your device. This policy covers the storage used by this website.
2. What this website uses
The website sets no advertising cookies and loads no tracking pixels or embedded social media content. Fonts and images are served with the website. With your consent it uses Google Analytics 4 (Google Ireland Limited) to count visits and see which pages are used; the Google script is not loaded until you accept analytics, and Google Consent Mode keeps analytics storage denied until then.
| Storage | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| hype9-consent-v1 Local storage | Remembers your choice in the cookie box (analytics accepted or essential only). | Recognised for 180 days; stored until cleared or replaced. |
| _ga Cookie (Google Analytics) | Distinguishes visitors; set only after you accept analytics. | 2 years. |
| _ga_8ZD7VRR8GS Cookie (Google Analytics) | Keeps the session state for this website’s Google Analytics property; set only after you accept analytics. | 2 years. |
| hype9-logo-played Session storage | Prevents the introductory logo animation from replaying on each page. | Current browser tab session. |
3. Your choices
You can use the website without making a choice in the cookie box; analytics stays off until you accept it. “Essential only” keeps analytics off, “Accept” switches it on. You can reopen the cookie box at any time to change or withdraw your choice; withdrawing stops further measurement from that moment.
You can delete or block site storage in your browser settings. The site remains usable, but the cookie box or introductory animation may appear again. Any optional tracking stays disabled until the required consent is obtained, with an option to refuse or withdraw it.
4. External services
Google Analytics is provided by Google Ireland Limited; data may be processed by Google LLC in the USA under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. How Google uses data from sites that use its services is described at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. Social media links take you to third-party websites. Those sites may use their own cookies and are responsible for explaining their practices and obtaining any necessary consent.
