Cookie policy

We keep cookies to a minimum. Analytics cookies stay switched off until you choose to accept them.

What a cookie is

A cookie is a small text file a website stores on your device. Some cookies are needed for a site to work. Others, like analytics cookies, are optional and only measure how a site is used. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies that follow you across other websites.

The cookies we use

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand which pages people read and how they find the site. It sets cookies named _ga and _ga_<id> that hold a randomised identifier and aggregate usage data. We do not use them to identify you personally, and we do not sell or share this data. We do not run advertising cookies.

Analytics stays off until you accept

Analytics cookies are set to denied by default using Google Consent Mode. Nothing analytics-related is stored until you press Accept on the cookie banner. If you press Reject, or ignore the banner, no analytics cookies are set and the site works exactly the same.

How to change your choice

Your choice is remembered in your browser. To change it, clear this site's data in your browser settings (or your browser's site permissions for smmcnj.org), and the banner will appear again on your next visit so you can choose differently. You can also block or delete cookies through your browser at any time.

More detail

How we handle the data these cookies collect is set out in our privacy policy. If anything here is unclear, contact us.
