Cookie Policy

Last Updated: January 2025

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit a website. They help websites remember your preferences and provide a better browsing experience.

Our Cookie Usage

We use minimal cookies on our website. We do not use cookies for tracking, advertising, or analytics purposes. Here's what we actually use:

Essential Cookies (Admin Only)

We use one cookie that is only set when an authorized admin logs into the admin panel:

  • admin_session: A secure authentication cookie that maintains the admin's login session. This cookie is only created when an authorized administrator logs in and is not used for regular website visitors.
  • This cookie expires after 24 hours or when the admin logs out
  • Regular website visitors do not receive this cookie

Local Storage (Not Cookies)

We use browser localStorage (which is not a cookie) to remember your cookie consent preference:

  • cookieConsent: Stores your choice to accept or reject cookies (stored locally on your device, not sent to our servers)
  • This is stored in your browser's local storage, not as a cookie
  • It only remembers your preference so we don't show the cookie consent banner repeatedly

Cookies We Do NOT Use

To be clear, we do not use:

  • Analytics Cookies: We do not use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or any other analytics or tracking tools
  • Marketing Cookies: We do not use cookies for advertising or marketing purposes
  • Social Media Cookies: We do not embed social media tracking pixels or cookies
  • Third-Party Tracking: We do not allow third parties to set cookies on our website
  • Behavioral Tracking: We do not track your browsing behavior or preferences
  • Retargeting Cookies: We do not use cookies to show you targeted advertisements

Cookie Consent

When you first visit our website, you may see a cookie consent banner. This banner allows you to:

  • Accept all cookies (though we only use the admin session cookie, which you won't receive unless you're an admin)
  • Reject non-essential cookies (though we don't have any non-essential cookies)
  • Customize your preferences

Your preference is stored locally in your browser (using localStorage, not cookies) so we remember your choice and don't show the banner repeatedly.

Managing Cookies

Browser Settings

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Here's how:

  • Chrome: Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and other site data
  • Firefox: Options > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
  • Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Cookies and website data
  • Edge: Settings > Privacy, search, and services > Cookies and site permissions

Impact of Disabling Cookies

Since we use minimal cookies, disabling cookies will have minimal impact:

  • You can still browse all pages and view all content
  • You can still use the contact form
  • The cookie consent banner may appear on each visit (since we can't remember your preference)
  • If you are an admin, you may need to log in more frequently

Third-Party Services

Our website may contain links to third-party websites (such as social media platforms). These external sites may use their own cookies. We are not responsible for the cookie practices of third-party websites. We encourage you to review their cookie policies.

We do not embed third-party tracking scripts, analytics tools, or advertising networks on our website.

Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. The “Last Updated” date indicates the most recent revision. Please review this policy periodically.
