Cookie policy
Version 2 · 28 September 2026
Cookies are small files saved by your browser. We also use local storage (localStorage) for some preferences. This notice applies to all visitors, including those in the European Economic Area.
Your choice
Essential cookies support login, security and your preferences. Statistics stay disabled until you accept them. You can reject them and still browse or buy. Clicking, scrolling or continuing to browse does not mean acceptance. We do not use advertising cookies.

Statistics with permission
Measurement runs on our server: it stores a hash of the random identifier, the event type, a 30-minute window and the profile when applicable. Real home visits are counted when the home page opens. The public count covers the current UTC day and may include separately recorded simulated visits, identified beside the total. It does not record mouse coordinates or form contents. Individual records are deleted after 30 days by scheduled maintenance; aggregate profile counters are retained. Withdrawing consent stops future measurement and deletes the cookie without subtracting previously aggregated figures. Activity before this notice is not reconstructed.
Cards shown when clicking empty areas display a random number in the million and its public owner's alias, if any. This feature does not need statistics cookies and showing a card does not count as a profile visit. Purchase totals come from confirmed transactions regardless of statistics consent.
Payments and external services
Starting a payment opens Stripe Checkout, which applies its own cookies and terms on its domain. We do not load Stripe or social tracking widgets on the home page. Social and owner website links only open when you select them. Stripe cookie policy ↗
Change or withdraw your choice
Open Cookie preferences in the footer of any page to change or withdraw permission as easily as you gave it. We will ask again when your choice expires (180 days) or the version of the purposes changes. You can also clear or block site data in your browser; blocking essential cookies may prevent login.
