Cookie Policy
Last updated: June 29, 2026
Cookies are small files stored in your browser. SmartValueLabuses a minimal set, grouped below. When you first visit, a banner lets you accept or reject analytics cookies; essential cookies are always active because the site can't function without them.
Essential (always on)
- Theme preference — remembers light/dark mode (stored locally).
- Cookie choice — remembers whether you accepted or rejected analytics (stored locally).
These store only your settings, contain no tracking identifiers, and do not require consent.
Analytics (consent required)
- Google Analytics (GA4) — measures page views and site usage. These cookies are not set until you accept. We use Google Consent Mode v2, so analytics storage stays denied by default until you opt in.
- Vercel Analytics — privacy-friendly, cookieless usage measurement that does not track individuals.
Managing cookies
You can change your choice anytime by clearing this site's data in your browser (which re-shows the consent banner), or by blocking cookies in your browser settings. Rejecting analytics cookies does not affect site functionality.
For more on the data we process, see our Privacy Policy.
