Cookies policy
What cookies Distributed Io uses, why they exist, and how you can accept or reject optional analytics.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember preferences or understand how pages are used. This policy explains cookies on https://distributed-io.digital. For broader data practices see our privacy policy.
Types we use
Essential cookies keep basic functions working, including remembering your cookie consent choice. These do not require consent under our practice because the site cannot store your preference without them.
Analytics cookies (optional) help us understand aggregate visits such as which lesson pages are read most often. They load only if you Accept on the cookie banner. Choosing Reject disables analytics cookies; the site remains fully usable for reading and enquiries.
Cookie table
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Provider |
|---|---|---|---|
distributed-io-cookie-consent | Stores Accept or Reject preference for optional cookies | Up to 1 year (localStorage) | Distributed Io |
dio_session | Essential session integrity for form status messaging where used | Session | Distributed Io |
_dia | Optional analytics — approximate page views and referrers | 6 months | Distributed Io (first-party analytics, if enabled after Accept) |
How to manage cookies
Use the on-site banner to Accept or Reject optional cookies on first visit. You can clear site data in your browser settings to reset the choice and see the banner again. Browser controls also let you block cookies entirely; blocking essential storage may reset consent each visit but will not remove access to lesson information or the contact form.
Third-party cookies
Embedded fonts may be requested from Google Fonts; that request can expose your IP to Google under their terms. We do not load third-party advertising cookies. If we add a third-party analytics vendor in future, this table will be updated before activation.
Impact of disabling
Rejecting optional analytics does not affect booking enquiries, reading journal articles, or viewing rates. Some visit statistics will simply be unavailable to us.
