Cookie Policy

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device. They're used for things like remembering your preferences and understanding how you use a site. Some cookies are essential for a site to work; others help us improve the experience.

Cookies We Use

Here's a straightforward list of the cookies on our site:

Google Analytics 4 (GA4)

• _ga — distinguishes unique visitors. Duration: 2 years. Type: third-party (Google).
• _ga_* — maintains session state. Duration: 2 years. Type: third-party (Google).

These cookies collect anonymized usage data — page views, button clicks, and general browsing patterns. No personally identifiable information (like your name or email) is sent to GA4.

Cookie Consent

• Cookie consent preference — remembers whether you've accepted or declined analytics cookies. Duration: 1 year. Type: first-party.

Local Storage

In addition to cookies, we use your browser's local storage for one UI preference:

• famhero-sticky-dismissed — remembers that you dismissed the email signup bar so it doesn't keep reappearing. This is not a cookie and is not sent to any server — it stays entirely in your browser.

We disclose this here for full transparency, even though it's technically not a cookie.

How to Manage Cookies

You have full control over cookies on your device:

• Browser settings — most browsers let you view, manage, and delete cookies through their settings or preferences menu. Check your browser's help documentation for specific instructions.
• Cookie consent — when our cookie consent tool is available, you can accept or decline non-essential cookies directly on the site.

Impact of Disabling Cookies

Our website works just fine without cookies. If you disable or decline analytics cookies, the only difference is that we won't be able to see anonymized usage data from your visit. No features are lost.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this cookie policy as we add features or change how we use cookies. When we do, we'll update the "Last updated" date at the top.
