Cookies

Privacy settings and browser storage.

The public site currently uses essential storage only. It does not use analytics, advertising or social-media tracking. Last reviewed 28 August 2026.

The cookie is set only after you choose “Use essential only” or save the setting. It is not used to identify you across other websites.

02 / Essential operation

Security or session controls may appear only when the service needs them.

The WordPress platform, hosting cache and security service may set short-lived first-party cookies when required to protect the site, administer WordPress or provide a feature the user requests. A clean public visit was tested on 28 August 2026 and did not set any of these cookies.

03 / Not in use

No analytics, advertising, social tracking or third-party embeds.

The public site does not currently use Google Analytics, advertising pixels, social-media tracking or third-party video embeds. The site fonts and homepage film are served from m4forge.com rather than a third-party content service.

04 / Change the setting

Review or clear the saved preference at any time.

Use the Privacy settings control in the footer on any page. You can review the current position, save the essential setting again or clear the saved preference.

05 / Future changes

A new purpose requires a new audit and, where required, a fresh choice.

If non-essential storage, analytics or a third-party feature is introduced, M4Forge must update this page and the privacy notice before the technology is enabled. Technologies requiring consent must remain blocked until the visitor makes a positive choice.
