Cookies and browser storage
The complete list, checked against what the site actually sets rather than copied from a template. Six things, from three sources, and you can refuse all of them without losing anything except a saved draft.
Cookies, all of them measurement. None is required for the site to work.
Items in browser storage, one of which is ours and holds your unfinished answers.
Consent banners. We do not ask permission for anything you can already block yourself.
Pages that stop working if you refuse the lot.
Cookies
| Name | Set by | What it does | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
_ga |
Google Analytics | Gives your browser an identifier so repeat visits are counted as one reader rather than several. | 2 years |
_ga_ENTT89VCE4 |
Google Analytics | Holds session state for this specific property. The suffix is our measurement id, not anything about you. | 2 years |
_fbp |
Meta | Gives your browser an identifier so Meta can tell whether one of our adverts led to a visit. Meta may match it to a Facebook or Instagram account if you have one. | 3 months |
That is the whole list. No cookie on this site is strictly necessary, which is unusual and is a consequence of the site having no accounts, no basket and no login outside the portal.
Browser storage, which is not cookies but is the same question

Us | Your unfinished job task analysis. That means your 48 ratings, your split of time across the domains, your free text answers, your background answers, and the email address if you have typed one. It never leaves your device until you press submit, and it is deleted the moment a submission succeeds. | Until you submit, or until you clear it |

Meta | Which site sent you here. | Until cleared |

Meta | When that happened. | Until cleared |
The draft, and shared computers
The draft is the one item on this page worth thinking about, because it is the only one that holds anything you wrote. It exists so that rating 48 tasks does not have to happen in one sitting, which is also an accessibility commitment, not a convenience.
It is stored on your device and nowhere else. We cannot read it. It is not sent to us, not backed up, and not synchronised between your devices. It is removed as soon as a submission goes through.
The consequence, stated plainly: if you fill in half the form on a computer other people use, and you neither submit nor clear it, the next person on that machine could open the form and see your answers and your email address. Finishing the form removes it. So does clearing site data. There is no button on our side that can reach it.
Refusing all of it
There is no consent banner on this site, because a banner that appears after the scripts have already run is theatre, and one that blocks the page until you agree is worse. Instead every page works with all of it blocked.
- Any common content blocker stops Google Analytics and the Meta pixel outright.
- Browser tracking protection does the same in Firefox, Safari and Brave without an extension.
- Blocking cookies for this site stops all three cookies.
- Clearing site data removes everything above, including the draft.
Nothing on this site is gated behind any of it. If you block us we simply do not see you, which is a trade we accept and would rather state than negotiate.
What is not here
- No tag manager, so nothing can be added to this list without changing the site itself.
- No session recorder, heat map or scroll tracker.
- No chat widget.
- No advertising network other than Meta.
- No third party fonts. Until 23 August 2026 the typefaces came from Google, which meant every page handed Google your IP address. They are now served from this domain.
- Nothing at all on the signed in portal, which carries no Meta pixel by design.

Every entry above was read off the live site rather than assembled from a template. If you find something here that this page does not list, that is a defect and we want it reported.
