What cookies are#
Cookies are small files that a site stores in your browser, we also use local storage which works in a similar way, together they let Wyst remember who you are and how you like the site set up
This policy explains what we use and how to control it, and it works together with our Privacy Policy
Why we use them#
We keep our use of cookies and storage small and focused on running the service well, we do not use them to build advertising profiles or to track you across other sites
What we use#
- Strictly necessary items that keep you signed in, remember your cookie choice and protect the service, these are needed for Wyst to work
- Functional items that remember your language and your page settings so the site feels right each time
- Analytics items that help us count profile views and clicks and understand overall traffic, including a device fingerprint used to count views fairly rather than to identify you personally
Advertising#
Wyst does not use advertising cookies and does not sell or share your browsing for cross site advertising
Managing your choices#
When you first visit, a banner lets you accept analytics or keep only what is strictly necessary, you can change your mind at any time by clearing the Wyst cookie choice in your browser, which brings the banner back
You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings, though some parts of Wyst may not work as well if you remove necessary items
Consent#
Where consent is required before non essential cookies are set, we ask for it through the banner and only set analytics items after you agree, strictly necessary items do not need consent because the service cannot run without them
Changes to this policy#
We may update this policy as the service changes, when we make a meaningful change we update the date at the top
