none.

this site sets no cookies: not its own, not anyone else's. it writes nothing to your browser (no local storage, no session storage, no indexeddb) and it loads nothing from third parties: no analytics service of anyone else, no advertising pixel, no embedded video, no external font. your browser talks to one server only: the one that sent you the page. the only exception is the 1of1 waitlist: if you fill it in and send it, your entry goes to the form service i use, which adds no cookie to this site (section 13 of the privacy page).

the menu and the tabs of the site (results, matteo's trades and the others) work through the address bar, with a "#" and the name of the tab: opening one, or the details of a card, stores nothing on your device and remembers nothing the next time you come.

what the page does is count, with a small script of mine that stores nothing on your device: where visitors come from, which sections they see, what they click, how fast the page loads. the records go to my own database at cloudflare, the company that hosts the site, with no ip address in them. the daily code that counts a visitor once a day cannot recognise you on another day once that day's random value is deleted: two days later, plus the restore history of the database, up to 30 days. if your browser sends global privacy control or do not track, the script sends nothing. what is recorded, why and for how long is in section 2 of the privacy page.

that is why there is no cookie banner. the italian data protection authority's guidelines of 10 june 2021 ask for consent for cookies and similar tools that are not strictly necessary, and for a notice where technical ones are used. they treat measuring a site's own audience like a technical tool, with no consent, when the results serve only that site, the ip address is not kept whole and the data is not combined with anything else or passed on: that is how this count is built, and this page and the privacy page are the notice.

what does exist is the server. the machine that hosts this page logs the ip address, time and page requested, as every web server does, to keep the site up and spot abuse. no cookie is involved and i do not use those logs to identify you; the details are in section 3 of the privacy page.

if this ever changes, for example if i add a cookie, an outside analytics tool or an embedded player, this page changes first, and if the law then requires consent you will be asked before anything is set. when you click a whop checkout link, three tags are added to it (where you came from, "site", the button): they are not cookies and store nothing on your device; next to a sale on whop they tell me which channel and which button the buyer came from. links to whop, cal.com, discord, youtube, instagram, tiktok, tradeify and alpha futures are plain links: their cookies start on their site, after you click, under their policies.
