Google Analytics 4 uses limited measurement on public pages, with analytics cookie storage denied by default. Existing visitor choices, Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track are respected. Our measurement code excludes account pages, administrator activity, form input values and URL query strings. A short-lived random identifier held only in each public browser tab measures current activity without setting a tracking cookie; it expires after inactivity. These live counts are separate from Google Analytics users and respect the same privacy choices. Reports may be processed through Windsor.ai for the private owner dashboard. Google AdSense is configured to support advertising. Google may use cookies or similar technologies to serve and measure advertisements, subject to applicable consent controls. Advertising placements are labeled.
