Your choice comes first
Analytics and third-party embeds are off by default. Reject and accept choices are equally available. Choose them independently in Privacy settings, and reopen those settings in the footer at any time. Rejecting optional services does not prevent access to public resources or member sign-in.

Owner and preview tools
A signed-in site owner using the Vercel toolbar may see _vercel_session or __vercel_toolbar storage. These are deployment-feedback tools, separate from public visitor analytics. They were observed in the owner’s browser during our review and do not establish what a new visitor receives.
Change or withdraw a choice
Open Privacy settings in the footer, untick a category and save. Embedded players are removed and future analytics events are blocked. Previously transferred information cannot be recalled. You can also delete cookies and site storage using your browser settings; doing so signs you out and resets remembered choices. If storage is blocked, choices apply for this visit only.
