Storage & consent
Cookie policy
The cookies and browser storage used by GamePlanBiz, the choices available to you, and how optional services are controlled.
Effective November 7, 2026
Cookies and local storage
Cookies are small pieces of information a website can ask your browser to keep and send with later requests. Local storage keeps information in your browser without automatically attaching it to every web request. Both can be used to remember preferences; optional services may use cookies or similar technology for other purposes.
Essential preferences
- gpb-theme: local storage containing your light or dark theme choice. It stays until you change it or clear browser data.
- gpb-consent: local storage containing your optional permissions, policy version, and an expiry time. The choice is renewed after approximately 180 days.
These preferences are used to honor your choices on this device. If storage is blocked, the website still works but may ask again on another page. The hosting provider may use separate security or delivery technology, which must be assessed for the selected deployment.
Analytics
Analytics is currently off. When enabled with permission, Google Analytics can use cookies such as _ga and _ga_* to distinguish visits and measure use. Their lifetimes depend on provider configuration and may extend beyond a session. Review Google’s cookie information for the current provider details.
Advertising
Advertising is currently off. If AdSense is activated, Google and participating advertising providers may use cookies and identifiers to deliver, measure, and personalize advertising where permitted. Google advertising cookies may be associated with Google or doubleclick.net domains. The certified consent platform must identify participating vendors and relevant purposes before the operator starts advertising.
The site’s basic preference banner is not a certified consent platform. The operator must complete the separate platform setup for traffic where required. Withdrawing local advertising permission stops new ad loading and reloads the page when ads have already been initialized. Your browser or the relevant provider may be needed to remove existing third-party storage.
Embedded and linked services
Comment widgets, when enabled, connect to Giscus and GitHub only after you select “Load comments.” Their storage and account features are governed by their own notices. Newsletter forms submit to a provider only when you choose to send the form. Social sharing buttons are ordinary links, so those services are contacted when you follow a link.
Managing your choices
Use to accept, decline, or change optional permissions. “Essential only” blocks the site’s optional analytics and advertising loaders. A supported Global Privacy Control signal blocks advertising permission even if a prior local choice permitted it.
You can clear cookies and local storage or block them in your browser settings. Clearing storage removes the remembered choice and theme. Blocking third-party cookies alone is not the same as declining all tracking. For broader information and rights requests, see our privacy policy.
