What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels, and scripts. They help a site work properly, remember your preferences, understand how visitors use it, and keep it secure. Some are set by us (first-party); others are set by service providers whose features we use (third-party).

Cookies We Use

Category Purpose and examples Typical duration
Strictly necessary Required for the Site to function and stay secure, such as page delivery, load balancing, firewall and bot protection (including Wordfence), login sessions for site administrators, and remembering your cookie-notice choice (prpl_cookie_notice). Session to 1 year
Analytics (first-party) Our own privacy-focused analytics stores a random visitor ID and session information in your browser’s local storage so we can count visits, recognize returning visitors, and see which pages are useful. It does not use your name or email and honors the Global Privacy Control signal. Until you clear your browser storage
Analytics (Microsoft Clarity) Microsoft Clarity sets cookies such as _clck, _clsk, CLID, ANONCHK, MR, MUID, and SM to understand how visitors interact with the Site through heatmaps and session replays. Text typed into forms is masked. Learn more in the Microsoft Privacy Statement. Session to 1 year
Embedded content and functional services Some features rely on third-party services that may set their own cookies, including Google reCAPTCHA, which helps protect forms from spam and abuse; social media feeds or buttons; newsletter sign-up tools. These cookies are governed by those providers’ policies. Varies by provider
