Cookies Policy

Nutrogine sets exactly two cookies, both for analytics. No advertising, no remarketing, no cross-site tracking.

What is a cookie

A cookie is a small text file a website saves in your browser. The familiar "this site uses cookies — accept or reject" banners exist because most sites use cookies for advertising tracking, retargeting, or third-party analytics that follow you across the web. We don't do any of those.

The cookies we do set

For visitor analytics we use Google Analytics 4. It loads its script from googletagmanager.com but the cookies it sets are first-party (on nutrogine.com):

  • _ga — a randomly generated client ID that lets GA recognise your browser on a return visit. Persists for up to 13 months. Does not contain your name, email, or any personal info.
  • _ga_<ID> — session state for the current GA property (the suffix is our property ID). Persists for up to 13 months.

That's all. We don't add any other third-party widgets, ad pixels, or social-share trackers.

How to opt out

You have a few options if you'd rather not be counted:

  • Use the official Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on
  • Block third-party scripts via your browser's privacy settings (Brave, Firefox Strict, Safari Intelligent Tracking Prevention all do this by default to varying degrees)
  • Use any standard cookie blocker (uBlock Origin, etc.)

The site works completely normally without analytics — we don't gate any feature behind tracking.

Strictly necessary technical storage

Your browser may set its own technical storage that we don't control:

  • Service Worker cache (only if we add a PWA layer in the future — currently not active) — used for offline support, no tracking.
  • localStorage — we may use this in the future to remember UI preferences (e.g. "you've already seen the welcome banner"). Stored locally in your browser, not sent to our servers.

Outbound links

If you click an outbound link (e.g. to a USDA page or a Reddit thread), that destination site may set its own cookies — but that's between you and them.
