Cookie notice
This site stores five display settings in your browser and nothing else. There are no tracking cookies, no advertising, and no analytics that identify readers.
In short
Moolmes sets no tracking cookies and runs no advertising or analytics scripts that identify readers. Your display settings are stored in your own browser and never sent to us. The only third-party requests are the embedded map on the contact page and the web fonts.
What cookies and local storage are
A cookie is a small file a site asks your browser to keep and send back on later visits. Local storage is similar, but the data stays in the browser and is not transmitted with requests. Both can be used for useful purposes, such as remembering a display preference, and both can be used for tracking. This notice tells you which is which here.
What this site stores
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| mm-theme | Local storage | Remembers whether you chose light or dark mode | Until you clear it |
| mm-large-text | Local storage | Remembers the larger text setting | Until you clear it |
| mm-contrast | Local storage | Remembers the high contrast setting | Until you clear it |
| mm-reduce-motion | Local storage | Remembers the reduced motion setting | Until you clear it |
| mm-underline-links | Local storage | Remembers the underline links setting | Until you clear it |
None of these values leaves your device. Because nothing here identifies you or tracks your reading, the site does not display a consent banner: under Canadian guidance, storage strictly necessary to deliver a setting you have chosen does not require one. You can clear these values with the “reset display settings” button in the accessibility panel, or through your browser.
Third-party requests
Two features load content from outside our servers.
- Google Maps on the contact page. When that page opens, your browser contacts Google, which may set its own cookies and receives your network address under its own terms. No other page embeds a map.
- Google Fonts on every page, which supplies the two typefaces used in the catalogue. If your browser blocks the request, the site falls back to system typefaces and remains fully readable.
We do not use advertising networks, social media buttons, session recording, heat mapping, or individual-level analytics.
How to control storage
Every current browser allows you to view, block and delete cookies and local storage, either for all sites or for one. Blocking storage for this site has one visible effect: your display settings reset each time you open a page. Nothing else stops working.
Browsers also offer settings that this site respects automatically, including the operating system preference for a dark colour scheme and the preference for reduced motion.
Changes to this notice
If we ever add storage beyond the settings listed above, this page will say so before the change takes effect and the table will be updated. The date at the top of the page shows the current version.
