Cookie Policy.

1. Summary

DSJ Business Consulting LLC operates dsjbusiness.com without analytics, advertising trackers, or third-party identifiers of any kind. The website uses one strictly necessary browser storage entry to remember whether you have acknowledged the cookie banner.

If you reject any form of browser storage, you can configure your browser to block it. The website will continue to function; the cookie banner will simply reappear on each visit.

2. What we use

We use one entry in your browser's localStorage:

3. What we do not use

We have made an explicit operational choice not to deploy any of the following on this website:

• Analytics platforms - no Google Analytics, Plausible, Matomo, Fathom, or comparable.
• Advertising and remarketing pixels - no Meta, Google Ads, LinkedIn, TikTok, or comparable.
• Behavioural profiling or fingerprinting - no FullStory, Hotjar, Microsoft Clarity, or comparable.
• Third-party tag managers - no Google Tag Manager or comparable.
• Social media tracking widgets - no embedded share buttons that report visitor data to platforms.
• Persistent third-party identifiers - no cross-site cookies of any kind.
• A/B testing or personalisation platforms - the website is the same for every visitor.

We are explicit about this because compliance language in cookie policies often glosses over what is actually being deployed. On this website, the lists above are accurate.

4. Server-level technical logs

The hosting infrastructure that serves this website automatically logs technical metadata for security and operational purposes (IP address, user agent, request timestamp, requested resource). These logs are processed under our Privacy Policy as security and operational data, not as cookies. We do not combine this data with any other identifier or use it to track individual visitors across sessions.

5. How to clear or block storage

5.1 Clear the consent record on this website

Click "Cookie preferences" at the bottom of any page. This deletes the dsj_cookie_consent entry from your browser's localStorage and causes the cookie banner to reappear on the next page load.

5.2 Block storage at the browser level

Most browsers allow you to block cookies and localStorage either site-by-site or globally. Refer to your browser's documentation:

• Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
• Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
• Safari: Settings → Privacy → Manage Website Data
• Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Cookies and site data

Blocking storage will not break this website. The cookie banner will simply reappear on each visit because we have no way to remember your prior acknowledgement.

6. Changes to this policy

If we add or remove any storage mechanisms, we will update this policy and the effective date at the top of the document. We are committed to keeping this list accurate; if you notice anything on this website that contradicts what is stated here, please let us know at dsjbusinessconsulting@gmail.com.
