Cookies and device storage
You can use every tool without allowing analytics. Last updated 17 October 2026.
Analytics status requires JavaScript; no Analytics is loaded without it.
What is stored?
| Item | Purpose | Duration / choice |
|---|---|---|
| bhw-consent-v1 (local storage) | Remember your analytics decision and its date/version. | Up to 180 days; stored only after a choice. |
| signal-room-v1 (local storage) | Optional home-check inputs on this device. The historical key name is retained for existing users. | Only when requested by ticking Remember; until cleared. |
| _ga and _ga_* (Google cookies) | Distinguish visits and sessions for Analytics, if enabled. | Up to 180 days, only after opt-in. Currently configured. |

Change your mind
Use Cookie settings on any page, then Reject analytics. This removes accessible _ga, _gid and _gat cookies for this domain and stops future Analytics collection. Your browser can also remove local storage and cookies. Clear saved tool inputs separately using the home-check clear button. Choices do not automatically apply on other devices or other no bother websites.
No hidden consent
Closing the panel, scrolling or using a tool does not give consent. Google scripts do not load before opt-in; we do not use cookieless Analytics pings for visitors who reject. There are no embedded social media widgets, third-party fonts, ad pixels or affiliate tracking scripts.
