COOKIE POLICY

Only the state needed to keep the experience safe.

NewsForensics separates essential security state from optional first-party measurement and does not require advertising trackers.

01

Essential storage

Session, authentication, abuse-prevention, rate-limit and consent-state cookies or equivalent local storage may be required for security and core functionality.

02

Optional measurement

First-party public-page analytics activates only after acceptance. It records a permitted public path, coarse viewport category and hashed operational identifiers—not search terms, claim text or evidence content.

03

Controls

Visitors may reject or change optional measurement choices. Essential security storage cannot be disabled through the consent control because the service may not function safely without it.

04

No advertising profiles

The current platform does not use third-party advertising pixels or sell cross-site behavioural profiles.
