Cookie policy

ProjectX sets only strictly-necessary, first-party cookies, and runs no third-party trackers, no advertising cookies and no consent-management platform. There is nothing here that follows you to another site, because the site does none of that.

The one optional thing — anonymous usage analytics — is cookieless. It sets no cookie at all, so there is no analytics cookie in the list below. The cookie notice is therefore mostly that: a notice, with a learn-more and a single opt-out for the cookieless beacon.

Theme: a cookie remembering whether you chose light or dark, so the page does not flash the wrong one on the next visit. Strictly necessary and set only when you make a choice.

Language: a cookie remembering the language you picked, which the site reads to override the language your browser advertises. Strictly necessary and set only when you switch language.

Consent choice: a cookie recording the answer you gave to the cookie notice, so it does not ask again every visit. Strictly necessary — a record of consent is itself necessary under the regimes that ask for the notice.

Session: a short-lived cookie set only while you are signing up and being handed off to the console. Strictly necessary to the sign-up it supports.

To know which pages are read without knowing who read them, the site can send a small page-view beacon: the path, a coarse category of where you came from, and a rough timestamp. It writes no cookie, stores no IP address, builds no fingerprint and holds nothing that identifies a person — so it needs no consent cookie to live in, and there is no profile to delete.

It is off unless you turn it on, and it is off automatically if your browser sends a Do-Not-Track or Global Privacy Control signal. You can change the choice at any time from the cookie notice.

Because the only cookies are strictly necessary, blocking them in your browser is allowed but will cost you the thing each remembers — your theme, your language, and a cookie notice that no longer stays answered. The optional analytics is managed from the notice itself rather than from a cookie setting, since it has no cookie to clear.
