GPC And Consent

How Global Privacy Control interacts with the public site's strict opt-in cookie model.

Global Privacy Control is a browser-level signal that a visitor does not want sale or sharing of personal information. The public site treats it as a strict privacy preference.

Site behavior

When GPC is detected, errata:

  • forces analytics off
  • forces marketing off
  • sets do-not-sell/share state
  • keeps essential cookies available
  • shows the detected state on /cookies

This applies even though the v1 public site does not load analytics or marketing scripts.

Why honor it now?

Honoring GPC before analytics ships prevents later regressions. It also makes the cookie settings page truthful: the browser signal, the stored consent state, and the legal disclosures all describe the same behavior.
