Cookies and GDPR Notice

Notice updated .

This site sets no cookies. On your first visit a dialog asks you to choose Accept required or Accept all; both buttons give you full access to everything. Your choice is stored in your browser’s localStorage, never on a server, and you can change it at any time with the “Cookie choices” link in the footer.

How consent works here

  1. On your first visit a dialog appears before anything non-essential could run. Google Consent Mode starts as denied for analytics and advertising storage.
  2. The two buttons carry equal weight. Accept required keeps non-essential scripts off, and the site works identically — no feature is withheld. Accept all would allow a future analytics tag to run.
  3. Google Analytics is not active: the measurement ID is a placeholder, so even after “Accept all” nothing is loaded or sent today.
  4. Your choice is stored locally under the key yei-consent, with the value granted or denied. The same choice applies to every publication on youressentialinsights.com, because they share one browser origin.
  5. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, it is treated as denied and the dialog is not shown.
  6. You can change your choice any time using cookie choices, which reopens the dialog. The same link is in the footer of every page.

Categories of storage used

CategoryStatus hereWhat it would do
Strictly necessaryOne localStorage keyRemembers your consent choice. Without it the dialog would reappear on every page.
AnalyticsPlaceholder, not activeWould count visits and page views. Would run only after “Accept all”. Nothing is loaded or sent today.
AdvertisingNoneThere are no ads and no ad network on this site.
Cookies set by this siteNoneThe site sets no cookies.

Under the UK and EU GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive, non-essential storage requires your consent. That is why analytics is denied by default, why the dialog gives both answers equal prominence, and why a Global Privacy Control signal is honoured.

You may change or withdraw consent at any time using the link above, or by clearing this site’s data in your browser settings, which removes the stored key entirely. To exercise any other data right, see the privacy policy.

Opening this site from a file

These pages work when opened directly from disk with no web server. In that mode the analytics loader is disabled outright regardless of your consent choice, because there is no origin for it to report to and it should not attempt a network request.
