1. Overview
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. We also use local storage and similar browser technologies that work like cookies for certain preferences.
At a glance
WorldTimelineHub is a mostly static educational site. We do not run advertising cookies or sell data from cookies today. We use minimal first-party storage for theme preference and load fonts and icons from trusted third parties.
2. Cookie categories
We group technologies on our site into the following categories:
Strictly necessary
Required for basic site operation. On our current site this category is minimal because we do not use login sessions.
Preferences
Remembers your light or dark theme via localStorage so the site looks the way you chose.
External delivery
Google Fonts and unpkg (icons) may set or read cookies under their own policies when assets load.
We do not currently use analytics, performance measurement, or marketing cookies. If that changes, we will update this policy and, where required, obtain consent before non-essential cookies are placed.
4. Third-party services
- Google Fonts —
fonts.googleapis.com,fonts.gstatic.com - unpkg — Lucide icon library (
unpkg.com)
These providers process technical data such as IP address and user-agent. Review Google Privacy Policy and unpkg’s site policies for details. We do not control third-party cookies.
5. Consent
Where law requires consent for non-essential cookies (for example in the EEA, UK, or under India’s Digital Personal Data Protection framework for certain processing), we will request consent before placing those cookies.
Today, only functional theme storage and third-party asset delivery apply. Essential operation of the static site does not depend on optional marketing or analytics cookies.
