SUMMARY
- We use one consent key in your browser storage and, only if analytics is on, first-party Matomo cookies.
- No Google Analytics, advertising pixels, or social trackers: analytics data stays on our own servers.
- Choosing "Essential Only", sending GPC/Do Not Track, or opting out here stops our analytics script from running.
- Change your choice any time with Cookie Preferences in the footer or the controls on this tab.
1. What We Store in Your Browser
Matomo durations are the product defaults. Matomo runs on our own infrastructure at stats.greentreehosting.net and sets cookies on the site domain you are visiting.
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| greentree_privacy_consent_v1 | Browser localStorage (first-party, strictly necessary) | Remembers your telemetry and cookie choice so we do not ask again. | Until you clear site data |
| _pk_id.* | Cookie (first-party, Matomo analytics) | Anonymous visitor identifier used to count returning visitors. Set only if analytics is on. | Up to 13 months (Matomo default) |
| _pk_ses.* | Cookie (first-party, Matomo analytics) | Marks a single visit so page views are grouped correctly. | 30 minutes |
| _pk_ref.* | Cookie (first-party, Matomo analytics) | Remembers the referrer for attribution. | Up to 6 months (Matomo default) |
| Offline asset cache | Service worker cache (first-party, strictly necessary) | Lets the site load faster and work offline. | Until replaced or cleared |
2. What We Do Not Use
- No Google Analytics, Facebook/Meta pixel, LinkedIn Insight tag, or advertising networks.
- No cross-site tracking and no sale or sharing of browsing data.
- No fingerprinting for advertising.
3. Your Controls
Open Cookie Preferences in the footer at any time to switch analytics on or off. If you choose Essential Only, or your browser sends the Global Privacy Control (Sec-GPC: 1) or Do Not Track signal, our analytics script does not run on your visit. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings; the site will still work.
4. IP Addresses
Matomo truncates visitor IP addresses before storage (the final IPv4 octet is masked), and geographic information is limited to approximate location.
