Cookie policy
Last updated 10 November 2026
Cookies are small files a website saves in your browser. This page explains which cookies guics uses, what else it stores in your browser and how to clear it.
Measurement cookies
guics uses Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics 4, Google services, to measure visits and engagement. The Google Analytics script may set measurement cookies in your browser, such as _ga and _ga_*, which are used to tell visitors and sessions apart. These are Google cookies, and the use of the data is governed by the Google Privacy Policy.
The site does not use advertising or social-media cookies. No Google Ads, Google Signals, remarketing or Meta pixel has been linked to this setup.
The server response does not set cookies. The hosting provider (Firebase Hosting, by Google) may use strictly necessary technical mechanisms to deliver the pages and protect the service, and Cloudflare, which the site’s traffic goes through, may add its own measurement script to the pages (Cloudflare Web Analytics).
Browser storage
Besides cookies, the site uses two items of the browser’s own storage. They stay on your device and are not sent to any server of this site.
guics:lidos(localStorage): remembers which texts you opened in this browser, so the “unread” tag can be removed from the home page cards. It stays until you clear the site’s data.guicsWipe(sessionStorage): short-lived state for the page-transition animation. It is removed when the next page opens and disappears when you close the tab.
How to manage and clear it
In your browser settings, you can clear the cookies and data for guics.me (under “cookies and site data” or similar) or block cookies and storage. In a private or incognito window, this data is gone when the window closes.
If you clear guics:lidos, recent texts will show as “unread” again on the home page. The site works normally without this data and without the measurement cookies.
