Cookies & Storage Notice
Effective date: August 12, 2026
We do not use advertising cookies, third-party trackers, or cross-site profiling of any kind. Everything below is first-party and exists only to make the site work or to credit someone who referred you.
| What | Where | Why | How long | Category |
|---|---|---|---|---|

| Quiz answers in progress | Local storage (first-party) | Lets you resume an assessment where you left off on the same device. | 30 days | Strictly necessary |
| __stripe_mid / __stripe_sid | Cookie (Stripe) | Payment processing and fraud prevention on checkout pages. | Session to 1 year | Strictly necessary |
| Review prompt flags | Local storage (first-party) | Remembers that you already saw or dismissed a review request. | Until cleared | Strictly necessary |
| Referral code & visitor ID | Local storage (first-party) | Credits the person or organization who shared a link with you. Not used for advertising and never sold. | 60 days | Optional |
| Traffic source (UTM tag & referring domain) | Local storage (first-party) | Records which of our own links or which referring website brought you here, so we can see which channels work. Stores the domain only, never the full address or search terms. Not used for advertising, never shared, and not linked to any advertising network. | 60 days | Optional |
Your choices
Strictly necessary items cannot be turned off — without them you can't sign in, take an assessment, or pay. Optional referral attribution can be declined from the banner shown on your first visit, and you can change your mind at any time by clearing this site's data in your browser settings.
Do Not Track
We do not track visitors across third-party websites, so we have nothing to stop when a Do Not Track signal is sent. If your browser sends one, we honor it by continuing not to perform cross-site tracking.
