Analytics

Our analytics tool (Umami) is self-hosted on our own servers at DigitalOcean (Toronto, Canada) and does not use cookies or collect personal information. Umami tracks page views and referrers in aggregate without storing IP addresses, using cookies, or fingerprinting visitors. No analytics cookies are set on your device.

Cookies We Do NOT Use

We do not use advertising cookies, tracking pixels, Google Analytics, or any third-party cookies for targeted advertising. We do not sell your data to advertisers. We do not use Facebook Pixel, Google Ads remarketing, or similar ad-tracking technologies.

3. Third-Party Cookies

Some features of the Site may load content from third parties (such as embedded maps or payment processors). These services may set their own cookies. We do not control third-party cookies. The relevant third-party privacy policies apply to their cookies.

Affiliate links: This site contains affiliate links to third-party services (such as Wise, SafetyWing, NordVPN, and others). When you click an affiliate link and visit a partner site, that third-party service may set its own tracking cookies on your device to attribute your visit or purchase. These cookies are set by the affiliate partner, not by us. We do not control these cookies and each affiliate partner’s cookie and privacy policy applies. We earn commissions on qualifying purchases or sign-ups made through these links, but we do not share any of your personal data with affiliate partners.

4. Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You can control cookies in several ways:

  • Cookie banner: When you first visit the Site, you can accept or decline non-essential cookies.
  • Browser settings: Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Check your browser’s help section for instructions.

Please note that blocking essential cookies will prevent the Site from functioning correctly.

5. Cookie Retention

Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain for varying periods: login cookies last up to 14 days, consent cookies last 12 months, and functional cookies last up to 30 days.

6. International Visitors
