Cookie and Tracking Notice
Last updated: 18 October 2026
What this means
We do not set analytics cookies, advertising cookies, or tracking pixels on this site. We set exactly one cookie of our own, and it exists to remember that you already answered our age and terms notice, so we do not ask you again on every visit and on every subdomain.
The only cookies you may encounter are set by Cloudflare, our network provider, to tell legitimate traffic from automated attacks.
What is actually set
| Category | Present? | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Yes, from Cloudflare | Cloudflare's bot management and security cookies (for example __cf_bm) distinguish human traffic from automated abuse. They are set by our network provider, are short-lived, and are not used to profile you. |
| Authentication | No | There are no accounts and no login, so there is no session cookie. |
| Consent record | Yes, ours: gc_consent | Records that you confirmed your age and accepted the terms. Set on .geocentricai.com so every Geocentric subdomain sees it and you are asked once rather than once per subdomain. It holds your choices and nothing else — no identifier, no profile — and expires after a year. The same record is mirrored in your browser's local storage in case cookies are blocked. See the Privacy Policy. |
| Analytics | No | We run no analytics product of any kind, first- or third-party. |
| Advertising | No | We run no advertising and no advertising pixels. |
Third-party scripts
This site loads no third-party script. All of this site's JavaScript is code we wrote and serve ourselves. It handles the navigation menu, page animations, copy buttons, the live terminal demo and the notice described below. Web fonts are served from our own domain rather than a font CDN, specifically so that loading a page does not disclose your IP address to a third party.
This site enforces this with a Content Security Policy restricting scripts and styles to its own origin.
Controlling this
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking Cloudflare's security cookies may cause additional bot checks. Clearing site data removes the consent record, so you will be asked again first.
If we ever introduce a non-essential cookie or script, we will not load it before obtaining consent where consent is legally required, and we will update this notice first.
The notice you see on arrival
On your first visit we show a notice asking you to accept the Terms of Service and Acceptable Use Policy before using the website. That notice is not a cookie consent request, because we set no cookies that require consent — it records the agreement itself.
Your choices are stored in the gc_consent cookie, and mirrored into local storage under geocentric.consent.v1 in case cookies are blocked. You can reopen the notice at any time from the link in the footer.
