Cookie Policy

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files a browser can store. This site also uses localStorage for the consent choice itself. Neither is required for you to read pages or use footer links.

Types we use

Essential: remembering whether you accepted or rejected optional analytics, so the banner does not return on every page load in the same browser.

Analytics (optional): only if you press Accept. If you press Reject, we do not set analytics cookies. Rejecting does not block pages, reviews, or legal documents.

Cookies table

Name Purpose Duration Provider
buildenginebase_cookie_consent (localStorage) Stores Accept or Reject so the banner can stay hidden Until you clear site data Buildenginebase (this site)
beb_analytics (if Accept) Aggregated page-count for our own understanding of which public pages are read 6 months Buildenginebase

Third-party cookies

Pages load fonts from Google Fonts. Google may receive your IP address as part of that request. Embedded images from public image hosts may set their own cookies according to those hosts. Links to https://veve.me/ leave this site; Veve’s cookies are not set by us.

How to manage or disable cookies

Use the banner on first visit (Accept or Reject). You can also clear cookies and localStorage for this domain in your browser settings, after which the banner will appear again. Browser controls can block third-party cookies entirely.

Impact of disabling

Rejecting analytics or blocking cookies does not remove forecast review pages, rates, or contact details. You may see the banner again if storage is cleared. Font rendering may fall back to system fonts if the font host is blocked.
