What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help pages remember preferences and, where allowed, understand how content is used.
How we use cookies
We use essential cookies for basic site operation and consent storage. If you accept analytics cookies, we may measure aggregate visits to Field notes articles. Rejecting analytics does not block lesson pages, forms, or navigation.
Cookies table
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Provider |
|---|---|---|---|
| nextgen_datacenters_cookie_consent | Stores your Accept or Reject choice for non-essential cookies | 1 year (localStorage) | Nextgen Datacenters |
| nextgen_datacenters_session | Maintains basic session integrity for form status messages | Session | Nextgen Datacenters |
| _nda | Optional analytics: aggregate page views when consent is given | 6 months | Nextgen Datacenters analytics |
Managing cookies
On your first visit a banner offers Accept and Reject. Your choice is saved under a brand-prefixed localStorage key. You can clear site data in your browser to see the banner again. Browser settings also let you block cookies globally.
Third-party cookies
Embedded fonts may be requested from Google Fonts. That request can expose your IP address to Google. We do not load marketing pixels by default.
Impact of disabling
Blocking essential storage may hide the consent banner repeatedly but will not remove access to lesson information. Blocking analytics only stops optional measurement.
