Cookies and similar storage
The current CoffeeJay setup uses first-party browser storage for privacy and country choices. Google Analytics 4 may set _ga cookies after Analytics consent. Without that consent, Analytics does not load. The list below distinguishes active functions from prepared integrations.

Necessary supports the website and remembers choices. Analytics measures usage. Marketing measures campaigns and advertising. Personalisation allows personalised content. External media loads content such as a video from another provider. All optional categories are off by default, including when your country is unknown.
Change your choice
Your choice is retained for up to 180 days. Use Privacy settings in the footer to withdraw consent. CoffeeJay immediately updates permitted services and attempts to remove only managed first-party Google cookie patterns. Cookies on other domains and HttpOnly cookies cannot be deleted from this page. Previously transmitted data cannot be recalled.
Region and browser signals
EU/EEA and UK use opt-in. A separate US configuration is prepared, currently using the same strict defaults. An active Global Privacy Control signal overrides marketing and personalisation choices. Sale/sharing or targeted-advertising controls appear only if those activities are actually configured later.
