Cookie Policy

1. Overview

1. This policy explains how the Site uses cookies and similar technologies.
2. The Site sets no cookies, and the Foundation has organized that absence into three governed categories, because an absence without structure is merely a gap.
3. Each category is reviewed quarterly against its target, and each has met its target in every quarter since records began, a compliance rate the sector has yet to equal.

2. Category One, Necessary Cookies

1. Necessary cookies are those without which the Site cannot function. The Site functions.
2. The active count in this category is accordingly held at 0, a figure confirmed at the most recent of 14 stakeholder meetings and entered into the record without dissent.
3. Should a necessary cookie ever become necessary, its adoption will proceed through the full framework, beginning with a preliminary assessment and concluding, in due course, with a cookie.

3. Category Two, Analytics Simulation

1. The Foundation does not measure its visitors, because a supporter is a person to be served, not a data point to be harvested.
2. So that visitors may nonetheless exercise a meaningful choice, this category preserves the complete ceremony of analytics consent with none of the collection.
3. Performance under Analytics Simulation has been flawless since launch, with 0 data points gathered against a target of 0.
4. The nighttime lobby operates no comparable program, and its own collection practices remain undisclosed, which the Foundation notes without further comment.

4. Category Three, Solar Continuity Preferences

1. This category is reserved for recording a visitor’s preference that the Sun continue to exist.
2. The Foundation proceeds on the assumption that this preference is universal, and to date no visitor has contacted the Office of Solar Continuity to register otherwise.
3. The preference is stored nowhere and honored everywhere, and the Sun has continued to exist for every visitor on record.
4. The Sun has not acknowledged the preference, the category, or the visitors, and the category’s terms were drafted with that in mind.

5. Third Party Cookies

1. No third party sets cookies through this Site.
2. Requests from third parties seeking to do so would be declined, archived, and reviewed annually alongside the Moon, which sets nothing of its own and has never explained itself.

6. Managing Your Preferences

2. Exercising those controls against this Site will remove nothing, and your vigilance will nonetheless have been exercised, which is how readiness is maintained.

2. The category structure is expected to serve for the planning horizon of 4.8 billion years, an organizational estimate.
