Cookies on this site. One first party cookie gives you a pseudonym so your notes stay yours; it holds no name and no email and cannot be turned off without breaking notes. Signing in sets one more functional cookie that holds only a random session id. Creating an account gives the Monitor your name and your email address, which the card says before you press anything, and deleting the account erases both. Separately, Google Tag Manager measures which sections get read. That one is your call, and nothing loads until you make it. Details on the privacy section and at trust.paciva.ai.
