Cookie and Tracking Notice
Last updated: 9 September 2026
What this means
We do not set analytics cookies, advertising cookies, or tracking pixels on either 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, plus your training opt-in. Set on .geocentricai.com so the website and the chat service both see 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. Your interface preferences stay in local storage. 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
Neither site loads a third-party script. This site's only JavaScript is a small file we wrote, handling the navigation menu and the copyright year. 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.
The chat service enforces this with a Content Security Policy restricting scripts, styles and network connections 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 for chat.geocentricai.com will also delete your locally stored conversations, so export anything you want to keep 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 services, and offering the optional training setting described in the Privacy Policy. 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. The optional setting is never pre-selected, and declining it does not restrict your access to anything. You can reopen the notice at any time from the link in the footer.
