Cookie Policy
This policy covers thinkdenominator.com, package documentation, existing workshop pages and Think Denominator Learn. A cookie is a small browser-stored value. Some storage is needed for a requested function; analytics is optional.
Essential storage
| Name or type | Purpose | Control |
|---|---|---|
Supabase authentication cookie (sb-<project-reference>-auth-token, possibly split into parts) |
Keeps a learner signed in and refreshes the session for protected learning and workshops. | Needed for sign-in; signing out invalidates the session. Token and cookie expiry may differ. |
td_analytics_consent_<measurement-id> and the matching local-storage preference |
Remembers whether you accepted or declined analytics, including when you return to the main website. | Preference cookie lasts up to 180 days; change it using Analytics settings. |
The authentication cookie is not used for advertising or analytics. The consent preference stores your choice rather than measuring your activity. The browser-based PRISMA and CONSORT tools do not store the content of your diagram in this preference storage.
Optional analytics
If you choose Accept analytics, Google Analytics 4 may set _ga and _ga_<container-id> cookies (normally for up to two years) and process browser/session information to help us understand site and documentation use. Analytics is configured for thinkdenominator.com and relevant package documentation. The main website does not load Google Analytics or set its analytics cookies before acceptance. Learn does not load this optional analytics script.
The numbers and study details you enter into the PRISMA and CONSORT generators are not sent to Google Analytics. We do not use Google Signals or advertising personalisation in the website configuration.
Your choice
You can choose Accept analytics or Decline analytics without affecting access to public content, research tools or learning. Select Analytics settings in the site footer area to change your choice. Withdrawing consent stops further analytics loading and removes accessible Google Analytics cookies from the Think Denominator domain; you can also clear cookies in your browser.
The Privacy Notice explains the personal information involved. We follow the ICO’s guidance on cookies and similar technologies.
