21CEE / Cookie policy
A lighter footprint.
No advertising cookies. No third-party analytics scripts. A display preference and a necessary reader-session cookie have separate purposes.
Updated October 24, 2026What the site stores
| Item | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| 21cee-theme Local storage | Remembers the light or dark appearance you select. It is a display preference, not a tracking identifier. | Until you change it or clear this site’s browser data. |
| __Host-21cee-reader Secure HttpOnly cookie | Authenticates this browser to Reader Pulse and protects signup submissions against cross-site requests. Created when you open the survey or submit signup. Not an advertising identifier. | Up to 365 days. Clearing it disconnects this browser from prior poll answers. |
| Hosting and security | Cloudflare may use necessary security cookies when protection or challenges are triggered. These are separate from advertising or audience profiling. | Varies by the security feature; see Cloudflare’s cookie information. |
What is not enabled
We do not deliberately set advertising or analytics cookies, load ad pixels, or embed social-media tracking widgets. Reader Pulse and email signup use a necessary session cookie when you interact with them. Optional demographic answers require their own consent. Newsletter delivery, confirmation emails and payment services are not enabled. We will provide appropriate information and choices before adding non-essential storage or tracking.
Your controls
Use the Light/Dark button to change appearance. To remove the saved choice, clear website data for the21cee.com in your browser settings. Blocking local storage does not prevent reading the forecast; your appearance choice may simply stop persisting.
Cookies and local storage are different technologies. A display preference does not authorize marketing. Links to external sites may involve their own cookies.
