Cookie Policy
This policy explains how Planckchron currently handles browser storage, consent-gated analytics cookies, and related telemetry on its public website.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners to make their websites work more efficiently and provide reporting information.
Planckchron stores your consent choice locally and may load Google Analytics cookies only when you grant analytics consent. The current public-site code does not implement a marketing-cookie provider.
Storage and Analytics Technologies
Essential Preference Storage
Keeps the consent choice in this browser's local storage
Consent-Based Analytics Cookies
Google Analytics may set identifiers only after analytics consent
Hosting and Performance Telemetry
The site code mounts Vercel Web Analytics and Speed Insights separately from consent-gated Google Analytics
Marketing Cookies
No marketing-cookie provider is currently implemented in the public site code

Analytics and Hosting Telemetry
The current public-site code distinguishes consent-gated Google Analytics from the hosting and performance telemetry mounted on Vercel-hosted production:
- Google Analytics: May set _ga identifiers only after analytics consent
- Vercel Web Analytics: Mounted separately for aggregate production-site analytics
- Vercel Speed Insights: Mounted separately for production performance telemetry
- Marketing providers: No active provider is currently declared in the public-site code
