Cookies
This page describes the cookies used on identitycanvascore.digital. It should be read with our privacy notice.
What a cookie is
A cookie is a small text file stored by your browser when you visit a site. Some cookies are needed for the pages to remember a choice you have already made. Others help us understand which columns are read. Cookies are not sittings and they do not hold your family papers.
How we ask
On the first visit a banner offers Accept and Reject. Both are available; rejecting does not lock the sittings, rates, journal, or enquiry form. Your choice is stored in the browser under the key identitycanvascore_cookie_consent. Clearing site data will cause the banner to appear again.
Types we use
Essential cookies remember the cookie choice itself so we do not ask on every page load. They are required for that memory to work.
Analytics cookies are used only if you press Accept. They help us see which pages are opened, in aggregate. They are not used to rebuild an identity journey from your browsing.
We do not use advertising cookies, and we do not allow a third party to place a marketing pixel on this site.
Cookie table
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Provider |
|---|---|---|---|
| identitycanvascore_cookie_consent | Stores whether you accepted or rejected optional cookies | Until you clear it, or about 12 months | Identity Canvas Core (this site, in local storage) |
| icc_essential | Keeps the banner from repeating on each page during a visit | Session | Identity Canvas Core |
| _icc_analytics | Counts page opens in aggregate if you accepted analytics | 6 months | Identity Canvas Core, using a privacy-respecting analytics processor |
If an analytics processor is not active on a given day, the _icc_analytics cookie is simply not set. Accepting still records your preference so we do not ask again.
Third-party cookies
The site loads typefaces from Google Fonts. That request may allow Google to see your IP address and the pages you open. It is a third-party connection, not a sitting record. We do not load social-media share cookies.
If you accept analytics, a processor may set its own cookie as named in the table. We do not permit that processor to sell the information.
How to manage or disable cookies
Use Reject on the banner to refuse analytics. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings, or use the browser’s private mode. Blocking all cookies may forget your banner choice, so the banner will return; sittings pages and the form will still work.
On many desktop browsers, cookie controls sit under Settings → Privacy. On many phones, they sit under the browser menu → Privacy or Site settings. We cannot change those menus for you.
Effect of disabling
Rejecting or blocking optional cookies does not cancel a sitting, hide rates, or stop an enquiry. You may see the banner again. Page counters will not include your visit. Essential memory of a reject choice needs the storage key above; if you block all storage, we cannot remember the reject and must ask again, which is the honest cost of that setting.
More about personal information
How we handle sitting notes, emails, and retention is explained in the privacy notice. Cookies on this site are a small part of that picture; the paper room is the rest.
