What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website saves on your device. They are used to make it work, to remember your choices, or to measure how it is used.

PostHog is not in the table because it sets no cookies and uses no other browser storage: it counts visits without identifiers, as section 5 of the website privacy policy explains.
Analytics and transfers
Until you choose, and if you decline, Google Analytics receives only cookieless signals without identifiers, from which Google derives aggregate estimates; these signals contain your IP address. Google Analytics 4 is provided by Google Ireland Limited. The data collected may be transferred to the United States; Google LLC adheres to the EU–U.S. Data Privacy Framework. We configure the property with IP-address anonymisation and without advertising features. Event-level data retention on the property is set to 14 months: after that Google deletes it and only aggregated data remains in the reports.
Microsoft Clarity is provided by Microsoft Corporation and shows us how the pages are used: recordings of navigation (scrolling, clicks, pointer movements) and heatmaps. What you type into form fields is not recorded. We tell Clarity that you have consented to measurement and not to advertising. The data may be transferred to the United States; Microsoft Corporation adheres to the EU–U.S. Data Privacy Framework. Recordings are kept for 30 days, except for a small sample and the ones we save, which are kept for up to 13 months; heatmaps are kept for 13 months.
How to change your mind
You can change or withdraw your choices at any time from the Cookie preferences link at the foot of every page. The cookie that remembers your choice is also readable by the platform (app.roundabout.pro): you are asked once, and the choice applies to both. You can also block or delete cookies from your browser settings; if you block technical cookies, some parts of the site may not work.
For everything else, the website privacy policy applies.
