Cookies Policy.

1. What Cookies Are

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device to store information between visits. Related technologies include local storage, session storage and pixels. This Policy explains our approach to all of them.

2. The Cookies We Set

The Site sets one cookie: a first-party essential cookie named lh_consent, placed when you accept the cookie notice. Its sole purpose is to remember your acceptance so the notice does not reappear on every visit. It contains the value 1 and nothing else, carries no personal information, expires after twelve months and is never used to identify or track you.

The Site sets no other cookies of any kind. It does not use analytics cookies, advertising cookies, social-media cookies or any cross-site tracking technology. Traffic is measured with Plausible Analytics, which operates entirely without cookies and without personal identifiers. This is a deliberate design decision: what you read on the Site stays with you.

3. Local Storage

Alongside the cookie described above, the Site stores a single value in your browser's local storage when you accept the notice, serving the same purpose as a backup. This value contains no personal information, never leaves your device and is not accessible to us or to any third party. You can remove it at any time by clearing site data in your browser.

4. Third-Party Services You May Visit

When you leave the Site to complete a purchase on Gumroad, schedule a call on Calendly or interact with any other linked service, those services operate on their own domains and may set cookies under their own cookie policies. Lakeside does not control and is not responsible for cookies set by third-party domains. We encourage you to review the cookie disclosures of any service you use.

5. Managing Cookies and Site Data

All major browsers allow you to view, block and delete cookies and site data through their settings, typically under Privacy and Security. Because the Site sets only the single essential cookie described in Section 2, blocking or deleting cookies will not impair your use of the Site; at most the cookie notice will reappear.

6. Changes and Contact

If our approach ever changes, for example if any technology requiring consent is introduced, this page and the site notice will be updated before it takes effect. Questions may be directed to info@lakesideholdingsllc.com.
