Cookie Policy
Last updated: 12 April 2026
The short version
physics.explained does not set any cookies. We use browser localStorage for two things: remembering your theme preference and whether you have seen this consent notice. That is it.
localStorage items
| Key | Purpose | Values |
|---|---|---|
physics-theme | Remembers your dark/light theme choice | "dark" or "light" |
physics-cookie-consent | Records that you have acknowledged this notice | "accepted" |
These values never leave your browser. They are not sent to any server or third party.
Analytics
We use Vercel Analytics, which collects anonymous, aggregated page-view data. Vercel Analytics does not use cookies, does not store personal identifiers, and is privacy-friendly by design. No consent is required for this type of analytics under GDPR/PECR because no personal data is processed.
Third-party cookies
None. We do not embed advertising, social media widgets, or any third-party services that set cookies.
