Cookie policy
Every cookie Cover Route sets, why it's set, and how long it lasts.
A cookie is a small text file stored in your browser. Cover Route uses cookies for two things: remembering your consent choice, and (with your consent) measuring aggregate site usage.
Cookies we set
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration | Set by | Category |
|---|---|---|---|---|
cr_consent |
Remembers your consent choice so we don't ask again. | 13 months | Cover Route (first-party) | Strictly necessary |
_ga |
Google Analytics visitor identifier (random ID, not personal data). | 2 years | Google Analytics 4 | Analytics — only set if you accept |
_ga_8S2PDPR4E6 |
Google Analytics session state for the Cover Route property. | 2 years | Google Analytics 4 | Analytics — only set if you accept |
Consent Mode v2
Even when analytics or advertising cookies are declined, Google's tag still sends a small "consent state" ping. This ping contains no identifiers and no browsing data — it exists so Google can statistically model aggregate conversion counts for advertisers without setting cookies for individual users. If you'd like to block that too, use a browser-level tracker blocker (uBlock Origin or the equivalent).
Third-party cookies
Cover Route pages don't embed any third-party widgets (no YouTube, no Twitter, no Facebook pixels, no chat widgets) so no third-party site can set cookies via us. Google Analytics operates from a Google-owned domain; only Google itself can read those cookies.
Changing your choice
Click "Cookie preferences" in the bottom-left of any page to
re-open the consent banner. Choosing "Reject non-essential" or
clearing your browser cookies will remove the analytics cookies —
the cr_consent cookie will be recreated on your next
choice.
