Cookie use
Goldie uses cookies for anonymous analytics (Google Analytics 4, Microsoft Clarity) and, once activated, for Google AdSense ads. Below: what gets set, why, and how to disable.
What cookies we use
• Google Analytics 4 (_ga, _ga_*) — anonymous visit statistics with IP anonymization. • Microsoft Clarity (_clck, _clsk) — heatmaps and session recordings without user identification. • Google AdSense (once activated) — advertising cookies for relevant ads.
How to disable cookies
In browser settings: "Privacy" → delete cookies / block third-party. Extensions: uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger block most trackers. Once AdSense is enabled, the site will show a cookie banner with explicit consent (GDPR requirement).
What we do NOT do
We do not identify users by name or email via cookies. We do not share data with brokers. IP addresses are anonymized before storage (anonymize_ip: true in GA4).
