Cookies and analytics

The Gnostic Key uses Google Analytics 4 to understand how people discover and read our work. This includes pages visited, broad device and browser information, referrals and engagement information.

Optional analytics

Google Analytics only loads if you select Accept analytics. If you reject it, we do not load its tracking script. Analytics may set cookies including _ga and a property-specific _ga_... cookie once enabled. They help distinguish visits and measure activity across pages.

Our Google Analytics web stream has measurement ID G-KD96SXX3JY. We have disabled Google signals and advertising personalisation in the site's tag configuration. Google processes the analytics information; please read Google's Privacy Policy for more information.

Your choice

You can accept or reject analytics when first visiting the site. Use Analytics choices in the footer to change your decision later. Your decision is saved locally in your browser so we do not ask on every page. Clearing browser storage may make the site ask again.

Withdrawing consent stops future analytics collection from this site. Information already collected before withdrawal may remain in Google Analytics subject to its retention settings.

Hosting and contact

Our hosting provider may process requests and technical logs needed to serve the website. These are separate from optional Google Analytics tracking.

If you have any questions about our use of analytics, please contact The Gnostic Key.
