How Bluemeteor uses cookies.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites work properly, improve the user experience, and provide business and marketing information to site owners.

"Similar technologies" include local storage, session storage, web beacons, pixels, and tracking scripts that perform similar functions. On this site, we rely on browser storage (such as localStorage) to maintain essential site functionality, like remembering your privacy choices.

2. Why We Use Them

We use local storage strictly for the purpose of operating essential website functionality—specifically, remembering whether you have acknowledged our privacy and cookie preferences banner. This prevents the banner from repeatedly appearing on every page visit. We also use analytics if you explicitly provide consent.

While we may use additional technologies in the future to understand site performance, support forms, or measure marketing effectiveness, they remain under explicit consent controls.

3. Cookie Categories

We classify tracking technologies into the following categories based on their function:

Strictly Necessary

Used to remember whether you acknowledged this notice and confirmed the available preferences. This browser storage cannot be switched off through our preference center.

Functional

Not currently used
These would allow the site to provide enhanced functionality and personalization.

Analytics

These help us understand navigation, assessment usage, and successful inquiry outcomes so we can improve website performance and user journeys.

Marketing

Not currently used
These would be used to track visitors across websites to display relevant advertisements.

4. Third-Party Technologies

We use Google Fonts, provided through fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com, to display the site's typefaces. Loading these resources requires the browser to connect to Google's servers. Source inspection did not identify a cookie configured by this integration; its behavior must be confirmed against the final published deployment.

If analytics is enabled in Publishing settings, Replit may inject an Umami-based Project Analytics tracker into the published website. Bluemeteor's custom events call that tracker only after you enable Analytics in the preference center. The final published tracker configuration and automatic pageview behavior require legal and deployment verification.

6. Managing Cookies

You can adjust your non-essential cookie choices at any time by opening our Cookie Preferences center.

7. Browser Controls

In addition to our preference center, you can manage cookies and browser storage through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse or delete cookies and clear stored website data. If you block or clear this site's preference record, the cookie notice may appear again.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy periodically to reflect changes in our technology or legal requirements. When we do, we will revise the "Last Updated" date at the top of the policy.
