EmarationNo tracking cookies. One piece of browser storage. Here's the breakdown.
Most websites need a cookie banner because they use cookies that legally require consent. This site doesn't. We use one piece of first-party browser storage, for your accessibility settings, and no third-party tracking of any kind. What we count is which step of our own site a visitor reached: a first-party counter that sets nothing in your browser and sends no identifier, described in our Privacy Policy. This page documents that storage key, because privacy laws say we should.

The short version
- We do not set any tracking cookies.
- We do not set any advertising cookies.
- We do not set any analytics cookies on this marketing site at this time.
- We use one piece of first-party
localStorage:emaration.prefs.v1, for your accessibility settings. - It doesn't identify you, and it isn't readable by anyone but this site.
- The accessibility panel's "Reset to defaults" restores the defaults; clearing site data in your browser removes the key.
- On the pages with a form, Cloudflare's Turnstile human-check loads from
challenges.cloudflare.com. That is the site's only third-party embed, and it is disclosed in full below.
What we store, and why
| Name | Type | Purpose | Expiry |
|---|---|---|---|
emaration.prefs.v1 | First-party localStorage | Remembers your accessibility settings: theme (cool, professional, mission, contrast), light/dark mode, font (Inter, Atkinson, OpenDyslexic, Lora), text size, motion preference. | Until you clear site data. "Reset to defaults" writes the defaults back into it. |
That is the entire list for this site. The member portal at members.emaration.ai sets its own sign-in cookies, listed by name in our Privacy Policy. An automated test in our build checks this table against the scripts this site actually ships — if we add another key and forget this page, the build fails.
A correction, on the record. An earlier version of this table listed only emaration.prefs.v1 and said nothing had been omitted. splash1_lastShown had been written on phone visits to the home page since the intro shipped, so that sentence was false — a completeness claim we had no way to keep. We would rather show you the correction than quietly add a row. That phone intro has since come off the home page, so nothing on this site writes or reads splash1_lastShown any more. If your browser still holds it from an earlier visit, it does nothing, and clearing site data removes it.
Third-party requests and cookies
We set no third-party cookies ourselves, and no font provider, ad network, or analytics CDN is contacted to render a page: all fonts are self-hosted from this domain (/fonts/), including the OpenDyslexic and Atkinson Hyperlegible accessibility fonts.
There is one exception, and it only appears on the pages with a form:
Cloudflare Turnstile — the "confirm you're human" check on our sign-up and audit-request forms. Those pages load a script and an embedded frame from challenges.cloudflare.com, which is a Cloudflare domain and not ours. That embed runs in its own browser context: it is how the check works, and it is not something we can inspect from our side. Cloudflare's position is that Turnstile does not use cookies to track people across sites; we have not independently measured what the widget stores in its own frame, so we are telling you it is there rather than making a promise about its insides. Cloudflare is a sub-processor of ours either way — see the sub-processor register and Cloudflare's privacy policy.
Pages without a form do not load it. If you would rather not load it at all, email human@emaration.ai and we will take your details that way instead.
Two automatic error reports can also leave your browser. Our host, Cloudflare, asks browsers that support Network Error Logging to report a request to this site that failed; those reports go to Cloudflare at a.nel.cloudflare.com. And if our own security policy blocks something on a page, your browser may report it to us at /api/csp-report; we keep which rule fired, what it blocked, and the page's address without its query string.
If a self-hosted font has not yet loaded, the site falls back to your system font stack; the experience is the same, just less typographically polished.
What might change
Apart from those error reports, the measurement on this site today is the first-party step counter described above and the server-side tallies described on our methodology page. If we ever add analytics beyond it, we will use a cookieless analytics provider (such as Plausible or Fathom). If that ever changes (for example if we add behavioral analytics or advertising tracking), we will update this page and add a cookie consent banner before the change takes effect.
We will never silently add tracking to this site without updating this page first.
Controlling browser storage
Here is how you control this storage:
- From this site: open the accessibility panel (button in the lower-right corner) and tap "Reset to defaults." That restores the default settings;
emaration.prefs.v1stays, holding them. - From your browser: every modern browser has a "Clear site data" option in its settings. Use that, and the slate is clean.
- Blocking storage entirely: the key is written inside a guard that swallows the failure, so a browser with storage disabled still works — you will just get the accessibility defaults each time.
