Cookie Policy — SaferSkills

1 What are cookies and similar technologies?

A cookie is a small text file a website stores on your device. "Similar technologies" include browser storage such as localStorage and sessionStorage. These can be strictly necessary / functional (needed to provide something you asked for, or to remember a preference you set) or non-essential (for analytics, advertising, or tracking, which require your prior consent in the EU/EEA).

2 Our approach: no tracking cookies

To keep the service privacy-friendly:

We do not use analytics cookies. Our usage analytics (PostHog) run in cookieless mode on an EU server. They store no cookie and no persistent identifier on your device.
We do not use advertising or marketing cookies, and we do not embed third-party ad or social trackers.
We do not fingerprint your device.
Error monitoring (Sentry) does not set cookies on our site, and Session Replay is not used.

Because we set no non-essential cookies or storage, no cookie-consent banner is required for the current site, and there is nothing for you to accept or reject.

3 The only storage we use

Name	Type	Provider	Purpose	Where	Duration	Category
`ss-theme`	localStorage (not a cookie)	SaferSkills (first-party)	Remembers your light/dark theme choice	On your device only — never sent to us	Until you clear it	Functional / strictly necessary

That is the complete list. We set no cookies, no analytics storage, and no third-party storage.

4 Third-party services and storage

The services we rely on (described in our Privacy Policy) are configured not to place tracking storage on your device when you use SaferSkills:

PostHog — cookieless mode, EU region: no cookies, no device identifier.
Sentry — error monitoring: no cookies; Session Replay is disabled.
GitHub — we fetch public content from GitHub on the server side; this does not place GitHub storage on your device through our site. If you then visit GitHub directly, GitHub's own cookie practices apply.

If we ever add a feature that needs non-essential storage (for example an embedded video, a future logged-in experience, or analytics cookies), we will update this policy and present a consent banner — with a "Reject all" option as prominent as "Accept all" — before any such storage is set.

5 How to control storage in your browser

Even though we set no tracking cookies, you remain in full control:

You can clear the ss-theme preference at any time by clearing your browser's site data for SaferSkills (your theme will simply reset to the default).
All major browsers let you view, block, and delete cookies and site storage in their privacy/settings menus.
We honour the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. Because we run no advertising or cross-site tracking, there is in practice nothing to opt out of, but the signal is respected.

6 Regional notes

EU/EEA (ePrivacy / French law): consent is required only for non-essential cookies/storage. As we set none, no consent is collected. The single functional item (ss-theme) is set as a direct result of your own action and is exempt.
United Kingdom (PECR): the same position applies; functional/preference storage set by your action does not require consent.
United States: we do not "sell" or "share" personal information and use no advertising trackers; we honour GPC.

7 Changes to this policy

If our use of cookies or similar technologies changes, we will update this policy and the "Last updated" date above, and — where the law requires it — ask for your consent before setting any new non-essential storage.
