Analytics
We use privacy-respecting product analytics on aggregate traffic and feature usage, configured to anonymize IP addresses and to exclude personal identifiers. No third-party advertising networks are used.
Your choices
- Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled because the Service cannot function without them.
- You can clear functional local storage by signing out and clearing your browser's site data.
- Research participation is governed by an explicit opt-in toggle in Settings → Privacy.
Do Not Track / Global Privacy Control
We honour the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal where applicable: when received, we treat it as a request to opt out of any non-essential analytics for that browser.
