Cookie Policy
A short policy, because there is very little to describe.
No advertising, analytics or other non-essential cookies are set by this site. That is also why you are not being shown a consent banner.
Cookies we set
None. At the time of writing this site sets no cookies of its own, and loads no third-party script that could set one.
What is stored instead
Your region, measurement system and currency symbol are kept in your browser's local storage under a single key. Local storage is not a cookie: it is never attached to network requests and never leaves your device. It exists so the calculators open in the units you used last time.
To remove it, clear site data for this domain in your browser settings.
Why there is no consent banner
Consent rules in the UK, EU, Ireland and comparable regimes elsewhere apply to storing or reading information on your device for non-essential purposes. A remembered unit preference you set yourself is not advertising or analytics, and showing a banner asking permission for tracking that does not happen would misrepresent what the site does. We would rather be accurate.
If advertising is switched on later
Advertising networks set cookies and similar identifiers, and in many territories that requires valid consent obtained before those scripts load. The site is built with a documented integration point for a certified consent-management platform, which must be configured and live before any advertising is enabled. When that happens:
- This page will list the networks and the categories of cookie they set.
- A consent mechanism will appear where consent is legally required.
- Advertising scripts will not load before consent is given in those territories.
- The privacy policy will be updated at the same time.
Until all of that is true, advertising stays off and the reserved advertising positions in the layout render nothing at all.
Third-party embeds
There are none. No video players, maps, social widgets, comment systems, font services or tag managers are loaded, so no third party can set a cookie through this site.
