# Cookie policy

> Which cookies and browser storage this site uses, why, and how to change your choice at any time.

Cookies are small text files that a site keeps in your browser. Browser storage works in a similar way. This page lists what this site stores, why, and how to change your choice.

## What this site stores

### Necessary

These keep the site working and remember the choices you make on it. They are always on, and nothing in them identifies you.

| Name | What it does | How long |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `cookie-consent` | Remembers your cookie choice, so the banner does not ask again | Until you change your choice or clear your browser storage |
| `theme` | Remembers whether you chose the light or the dark mode | Until you clear your browser storage |

### Analytics, with your consent

If you accept analytics, a privacy-friendly service counts page visits so I can see which pages are useful and which are not. It shows no ads, does not follow you to other sites, and keeps only totals. It stays off until you accept it.

### Marketing, with your consent

This category is for measuring sign-ups from a campaign, if I run one. Nothing is stored unless you accept it, and this site shows no advertising.

## Changing your choice

Use **Cookie settings** at the foot of any page to open the banner again and change your choice at any time. You can also clear cookies and site data in your browser settings; the site keeps working and simply asks again.

## More about your data

The [privacy policy](https://margo-astro.pages.dev/privacy-policy/) explains what happens to the details you send through the contact form and the newsletter, and the rights you have over them.

## Changes to this policy

When the site starts or stops using a cookie, I update this page and the date at the top.
