Cookie Policy

Overview

bradymwilson.com uses necessary browser storage to remember privacy choices and optional analytics storage only when analytics consent is granted.

The cookie banner provides Accept, Reject, and Manage options. Rejecting optional categories does not block access to the website.

Necessary Storage

Necessary storage remembers cookie preferences and supports core site behavior. It is always active because the site needs it to remember visitor choices.

The consent preference is stored in localStorage under bw_cookie_consent_v1 and is valid for 180 days. If browser storage is blocked, your choice applies only in the current tab.

Administrator-only authentication cookies bw_atlas_admin_auth and bw_preview_auth expire after 24 hours. The password-manager vault bw_atlas_password_manager_vault is stored locally when an administrator uses that feature; it is not created for public visitors.

Analytics

Analytics tools are optional and are used only after analytics consent is granted.

Optional first-party analytics uses bw_visitor_id in localStorage and bw_session_id in sessionStorage. The visitor identifier persists until withdrawal, expired consent cleanup, or browser clearing; the session identifier lasts for the tab's session. Rejection removes both identifiers.

When Google Analytics is configured and enabled by your consent, Google may also use _ga and _ga_* cookies. Withdrawal disables Google Analytics and removes accessible first-party analytics cookies.

Marketing

Marketing and remarketing tools are not in use. The site does not request permission for hypothetical future advertising tools.

Any future optional tracking requires an updated notice and a new choice before it runs.

Region-Aware Notice

The banner estimates whether a visitor may be in the EU, UK, EEA, or Switzerland using browser language and time zone signals, then presents stricter opt-in privacy copy for those visitors.

Because browser signals are imperfect, the same core controls remain available to all visitors.
