Cookie policy
This policy lists everything this website stores in your browser, and why. It is run by Luís Miguel, reachable at quicksaver@gmail.com. The privacy policy covers what happens to the data itself.
Your choice
The first time you visit, a banner asks whether you accept analytics cookies. Until you choose, and if you refuse, the site still counts page views, but without cookies: PostHog tells visitors apart with a hash it computes on its own servers, and stores only a note that analytics cookies are off. Accepting adds the analytics cookie below and lets the site record interactions such as sharing, how far you read, and errors.
You can change your mind at any time with "Cookie settings" in the footer. When this list changes, the banner asks again.

The first five are needed for the site to work and to respect your choice, and are always on. Nothing here is used for advertising, and no third party sets cookies on this site.
