Cookies on FeelingGuide

Reading FeelingGuide sets no cookies at all. The only ones we can set are for analytics, and they stay off unless you say yes.

Essential

One small record of your cookie choice, kept in your own browser so we do not ask again on every page. It holds nothing but your answer. It cannot be switched off, because without it we would have to keep asking.

Analytics, optional

Google Analytics tells us which pages people actually use, how they arrived, and where they give up. That is how we know which of the 900+ feelings pages are worth improving. It sets cookies in your browser and shares a record of the visit with Google.

Until you accept, Google Consent Mode holds analytics storage in a denied state, so no analytics cookie is written. What you type into the identify tool is never sent to Google, whatever you choose here.

What we do not do

No advertising cookies, no marketing pixels, no cross-site tracking, no data sold to anyone. If that changes, this page changes first, and the banner will ask you again.

Changing your mind

Your choice is not permanent. Reopen the preferences at any time:

You can also clear cookies in your browser, or install Google's opt-out extension.

What happens to what you write in the identify tool is a separate question, answered on the privacy page.
