Cookie notice

Scope: every storage and network fact about this site, compressed into one block. The sections after it are the working.

Cookies from our code

None

Cookies from the host

Two, strictly necessary, itemised at 02

Analytics

None installed, of any vendor

Advertising and pixels

None

Local storage, session storage, IndexedDB

Nothing written by anything we ship

Fingerprinting

Not attempted, and no returning-visitor recognition of any kind

Consent banner

None, for the reason at 04

Outbound requests

One, to a font host, disclosed at 06

Forms

None on any page, so nothing is posted anywhere

Scope: the complete list of what can end up on your device from a visit here.

The list ends there. Neither value reads back to us as an identifier for a person, neither feeds a measurement, and neither was asked for by us: they are part of how the host keeps automated abuse off an origin.

Scope: the legal basis for a page like this one, which is frequently assumed to be European and is not.

This country runs no separate cookie consent regime. No local instrument matches the ePrivacy Directive in Europe, and no statute here makes a banner the precondition of writing storage. On an Australian site the banner is a design decision, usually a copied one.

What does apply is the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth). Should a cookie or a comparable mechanism gather information about a reasonably identifiable person, that counts as personal information. The Australian Privacy Principles then attach: APP 3 for the collecting, APP 5 for the telling, APP 6 for whatever follows.

The two entries at 02 are assessed against that test each time this page is reviewed. Neither is used to build a record about a person, which is why neither is treated as requiring consent, and the assessment would change if their function did.

Scope: the absent banner, and the second reason for its absence.

Permission is the thing a banner collects, for storage reaching past strictly necessary. None of that runs here, so the dialog would be seeking approval of an empty list, and the click would move nothing.

The second reason happens to be this company's subject. A consent management platform is one of the most expensive things a marketing site loads: a blocking script, a reflow when it paints, and another round trip before the page can be read. On a slow connection and an old handset it is routinely the heaviest item on the page, and it would be there to ask about storage this site does not use. Shipping one would be hard to defend on a site that argues about frame time for a living.

Add analytics or advertising later and permission gets asked before a byte of it loads, refusing stays exactly as easy as accepting, and this page changes before the code ships rather than after.

Scope: the negative inventory. Each line is verifiable from your own browser in under a minute.

• No Google Analytics. No Plausible, Fathom or Matomo. No measurement product under any other name.
• No advertising of any kind, and no advertising cookie.
• No conversion tracking, and no pixel or insight tag from Meta, LinkedIn or TikTok.
• No session replay, heatmap or scroll depth instrumentation.
• No embedded video player, map, comment system or social widget.
• No tag manager, and no third party script at all, which is what makes the rest of this list easy to keep true.
• No A/B testing framework, and no personalisation of the page for anyone.

The check: developer tools open, Application panel for storage, Network panel for requests, then a reload. What is described above is what you will find, and a discrepancy is worth an email.

Scope: the single third party this page contacts.

Hosts contacted

fonts.googleapis.com for the stylesheet, then fonts.gstatic.com for the files themselves

What they receive

An IP address, a user agent string, and the referring page

Cookies set

None. Google states the Fonts service sets no cookie and does not use these requests for advertising or profiling

Blockable

Yes. Block both hosts and the site renders in a system font with nothing else lost

On the removal list

Self hosting the two files, which removes the request entirely

Two typefaces are fetched that way, and it is the only network cost on this site that goes anywhere other than our own origin. Describing it plainly is better than leaving it for somebody to find in a waterfall, and it stays on the removal list until it is gone.

Scope: page weight. Not a cookie question, but the same argument, so it belongs somewhere public.

Markup

Static HTML, written by hand, served as a file

Stylesheet

One, shared across every page

Script

One, small, deferred, and it fails open

What the script does

Opens the navigation on a narrow screen, and reveals sections as they scroll into view

Framework, bundle, hydration

None of the three

Images

WebP, sized in the markup so nothing shifts as they arrive

Nothing on the page depends on the script running. Turn scripting off and the content is all still there, which is the property most sites lose first when the tag list grows.

Scope: the record a request leaves behind at the other end of the connection.

Every web server keeps a record of what it was asked for. Ours holds an IP address, a path, a response status, a user agent and a timestamp. Nothing of that reaches your device, which keeps it outside the definition of a cookie. It remains personal information, and an inventory omitting it would be dishonest.

Those entries stay with the host, ageing out on its own rotation, currently under 30 days. They serve two purposes: delivering the file, and defending the origin against abuse. The same record appears in the privacy policy at 06, with its retention clock.

Scope: doing this yourself, without asking us for anything.

Storage can be blocked, cleared and inspected from any current browser. Block the two entries at 02 and the host may put a challenge in front of you more often; the pages carry on working.

• Chrome: open Settings, go to Privacy and security, then the controls covering site data and third-party cookies.
• Safari, under Settings, in Privacy, at Manage Website Data.
• Firefox, under Settings, in Privacy and Security, at Cookies and Site Data.
• Edge, under Settings, at Cookies and site permissions.

Private browsing discards both entries when the window closes, which is a simpler route to the same result.

Scope: the browser signals that tell a site to stop, and what they change here.

Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track are both honoured, an easy promise when nothing here is waiting to be switched off. With either header present, no further storage is written and no further processing runs, which is equally true with neither.

A Global Privacy Control signal is also treated as a valid opt out of any sale or sharing of personal information, as the privacy policy records at 31, in case a reader is somewhere that gives that signal legal weight.

Scope: keeping two different things apart, since they are often confused.

Cookies are a browser mechanism and stop at the edge of this website. A mobile title does not use them; what it writes is performance telemetry, with its own field list, its own retention clocks and its own switch inside the title's settings.

The short version: frame timing, thermal and power telemetry can be turned off in a title's settings and play is unaffected. The long version, field by field, is at 05 of the privacy policy.

Scope: what to do with a question about this page, or with evidence that it is wrong.

Address

[email protected]

Question about this page

5 business days

Privacy request

30 days, per the privacy policy

Evidence this page is inaccurate

Treated as a defect report, and the page is corrected rather than argued about

Where our answer settles nothing, the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner takes it next: GPO Box 5218, Sydney NSW 2001, on 1300 363 992, or at oaic.gov.au. Nothing is charged for that, and our agreement forms no part of it.
