What is gated by consent
Our consent banner sets Google Consent Mode to denied by default. Nothing optional loads until you choose:
- Essential: always on. Needed to remember your settings, protect forms and take payments.
- Analytics: Google Analytics 4. Loads only if you accept analytics.
- Marketing: ad measurement. We do not currently load any marketing tags; the switch exists so your choice is respected if that changes.
