Cookies & local storage

Alcometer.org separates safety acknowledgement from cookie and privacy choices. The calculator needs essential browser local storage to work. Optional analytics remains off unless you choose to allow it.

Cookie posture

No advertising cookies, tag managers, social-media pixels, or advertising network scripts are embedded. The product must not use alcohol inputs, BAC estimates, profile values, drink timing, recovery inputs, or hydration inputs for advertising or model training.

If optional analytics is enabled in the future, it must remain consent-gated: no analytics SDK may load before consent, and it must not receive alcohol, health, profile, or drink-log values.

Google Fonts may be requested by your browser as a stylesheet/font network request, but it is not used by Alcometer.org to profile users.

Essential localStorage keys

The browser may store profile, drink/session, language, jurisdiction, compliance acknowledgement, and privacy consent values locally. These keys start with alcometer_, alcometer., or alcometer:.

The safety acknowledgement key records that the educational-use gate was accepted. It is not a cookie-consent record. Cookie and optional analytics choices are stored separately under the privacy consent key.

Use the Privacy & data controls page to download or delete every Alcometer storage key from this browser.

Optional analytics choice

The cookie banner records whether optional analytics is allowed. Essential local storage remains enabled because it is needed to run the calculator and remember local preferences.

Rejecting optional analytics does not affect access to the calculator, legal-limit pages, methodology, or other educational pages.
