Traffic measurement
Vercel Analytics and Speed Insights measure page views and loading performance without cookies. Web Analytics uses a temporary hash derived from the request to distinguish visitors. These services run independently of your Google Analytics cookie preference.
Google Analytics
Google Analytics 4 loads before you answer the banner. Before you allow analytics cookies, and when you decline, it sends limited page-view and engagement measurements without reading or writing analytics cookies. These requests can include page URLs, referrers, browser information and temporary values; Google receives your IP address when your browser connects. If you allow analytics cookies, Google can recognise returning visits and connect activity across pages. Advertising features are disabled.
Cookies
After you allow analytics cookies, Google Analytics can set _ga and _ga_ followed by the measurement stream ID. These cookies support browser and session measurement and normally expire after two years, subject to browser limits and Google settings. Declining prevents their use and removes existing GA cookies set by this site.
Browser storage
Silktide stores essential preference information in localStorage under keys beginning stcm., including an essential-storage flag before you answer and your choice once you save it. Scripts running on this site can access this storage. The site communicates your analytics consent state to Google. Your preference is specific to this browser and site origin; clearing site storage resets it.
Third parties
Vercel hosts the site and provides traffic and performance measurement. When Google Analytics is enabled, your browser also sends measurement requests to Google. This site does not run advertising. External links are governed by the destination services’ privacy policies once you follow them.
Changing your mind
Open Cookie preferences, turn Analytics cookies off, and save. This updates consent and removes existing GA cookies, including in other open tabs on this site. Limited cookieless Google measurement and Vercel measurement continue. Changing your choice does not reload the page or delete previously collected data.
