We use a small number of first-party cookies and nothing from advertisers or trackers.

Cookie	Purpose	Lifetime	Type
`co_sess`	Keeps you signed in and protects forms against cross-site request forgery.	30 days	Strictly necessary
`co_vk`	A random visitor id. Lets you react to posts without an account, stops the same browser reacting twice, applies rate limits against abuse, and counts one view per person for the Heat score. It contains no personal data and is not shared.	1 year	Functional / analytics
Browser storage	None used.	—	—

We do not use Google Analytics, advertising pixels or social-media trackers. Usage measurement is done on our own server, keyed to the visitor id above, and raw events are deleted after 90 days.

Third-party requests: the site loads typefaces from Google Fonts. That request sends your IP address and browser details to Google. It sets no cookies.

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Without co_sess you cannot sign in; without co_vk reactions will not save.
