What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files a website can store in your browser. Similar technologies include local storage and session storage, which work the same way for the purposes of this policy.
Cookies Used on This Site
This site does not set advertising cookies, and it does not use cookies to build a profile of you. If you play a YouTube video, YouTube sets its own cookies, which can include advertising cookies.
Strictly necessary: our hosting provider may set cookies required to serve and secure the site, and we store your cookie choice in your browser so we do not ask on every visit. Site administrators who sign in also get a sign-in cookie.
What Is Stored
| Name | Set By | Purpose | How Long |
|---|---|---|---|
| socratyc_video_consent | Socratyc | Local storage: video choice and date | 365 days |
| cookie_consent_analytics | Socratyc | Local storage: analytics choice and date | Acceptance: 365 days; refusal: 183 days under the consent module, with the site panel retaining your choice for 365 days |
| Admin sign-in storage | Lovable Cloud | Local storage: administrator session; no public visitor session was observed | Until sign-out or browser deletion; session renewal depends on the sign-in service |
| post-auth | Socratyc | Session storage: return location during admin sign-in | Removed after sign-in, or when the tab closes |
| YSC | YouTube | Player session cookie observed before this draft's gating change | Browser session |
| VISITOR_INFO1_LIVE, VISITOR_PRIVACY_METADATA, __Secure-YNID, __Secure-ROLLOUT_TOKEN | YouTube | Player cookies observed before this draft's gating change | Approximately 180 days in the observed session |
| Wistia player storage | Wistia | Video playback and player telemetry after permission or Play | Names and durations not verified |
| Hosting security cookies | Lovable hosting | Serving and securing the site; none observed in the local preview inventory | Names and durations not verified |
Admin sign-in was verified in code as browser local storage, not as a cookie. The sign-in cookie wording above is retained for attorney review.
Embedded Video
Some pages include video players from Wistia and YouTube. These services set their own cookies when a player loads. We do not load a player until you choose Accept All, or until you press Play on that video.
Your Choices
When you first visit, you can choose Accept All or Reject Non-Essential. You can change your choice at any time with the Cookie Settings link at the bottom of every page. Every major browser also lets you view, block, and delete cookies from its settings or privacy menu. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may stop parts of the site from loading correctly.
Links to Other Services
Buttons and links on this site open external services. Once you follow one of those links, that service sets its own cookies under its own policy. We do not control those cookies.
Changes to This Policy
If we add analytics or other non-essential cookies in the future, we will update this page before doing so.

Visitor Analytics
Clicks are recorded only after you accept analytics. Page visits, time on page, page speed and errors are recorded for every visitor, without cookies and without identifying anyone. Your choice is saved in your browser for up to 12 months.
Lovable's analytics uses no cookies, stores nothing on your device, does not keep IP addresses and does not identify visitors. It records the pages visited, where visitors came from, their country, browser, operating system and device type, how long they stay, how fast pages load, errors and, after permission, clicks. Detailed data is kept for 90 days and daily summaries for a year.
Lovable collects this data for us. Lovable's privacy policy explains how it handles it.
