1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored in your browser when you visit a website. We also use the browser's localStorage API, which works similarly. This notice explains every storage item Regina Wild places on your device.

2. What We Use and Why

We use two categories of storage:

  • Strictly necessary — required for the site to function. These are set automatically and are not subject to the consent banner.
  • Analytics (optional) — set only after you click Accept on our consent banner. If you decline, no analytics storage is created.

3. Full Cookie Inventory

Name / Key Type Category Purpose Expires
jw_age_ok localStorage (cookie fallback) Strictly necessary Stores confirmation that the user has passed the age gate (value: "1"). Without this, the gate re-displays on every page load. Session / until cleared by user
jw_cookie_ok localStorage (cookie fallback) Strictly necessary Stores the user's consent choice (value: "yes" or "no"). Without this, the banner re-displays on every page load. 1 year (cookie) / until cleared (localStorage)
_ga Cookie Analytics (consent required) Google Analytics 4 client identifier. Used to distinguish unique visitors. Set only after consent is given. 2 years
_ga_XXXXXXXX Cookie Analytics (consent required) Google Analytics 4 session state. Maintains session context for a single visit. 2 years

4. Third-Party Cookies

Google Analytics 4 (operated by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) may set cookies listed above if you give consent. Google processes this data under its own privacy policy available at policies.google.com/privacy. We have configured GA4 with IP anonymisation enabled.

We do not use advertising cookies, social-media tracking pixels, or any other third-party storage beyond GA4.

5. Your Choices

You can manage cookies and localStorage through your browser settings at any time:

  • Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
  • Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
  • Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
  • Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions

Clearing jw_age_ok from localStorage will cause the age gate to reappear. This is intentional — it is a safety feature, not a tracking mechanism.

6. Changes to This Notice

We may update this Cookie Notice when we change our storage practices. The effective date at the top of this page reflects the most recent update. Continued use of the Platform after the update date constitutes acceptance of the revised notice.
