Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy provides detailed information about the cookies and similar technologies used on the Site. We handle personal information in accordance with the Personal Information Protection Act (British Columbia) and Canada's PIPEDA. Essential cookies are necessary to operate the Site and do not require consent; analytics cookies are only set if you consent through our cookie banner.

What Cookies We Use

1. Essential (always active)

Required for the Site to function. These do not require consent:

• ggdi_cookie_consent — remembers your cookie choice.
• next-auth.session-token — keeps administrators signed in to the private admin area (not used by public visitors).
• Cloudflare Turnstile tokens — short-lived values that protect our contact and login forms from automated abuse.

2. Analytics (only with your consent)

Set by Google Analytics to measure how visitors use the Site (pages viewed, session duration, general interaction metrics). They are not placed unless you accept analytics in the cookie banner:

• _ga, _ga_<id> — distinguish visitors and retain session state (Google Analytics).

Google processes this data as a third party under its own policies. We use these statistics only in aggregate to improve content and performance.

How to Manage Cookies

The simplest way is our cookie banner, shown on your first visit, where you can Accept all, Decline, or Manage analytics. You can revisit these choices any time using the cookie button at the bottom-left of every page. Declining analytics prevents Google Analytics cookies from being set.

You may also control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Instructions vary by browser:

• Chrome: Settings → Privacy → Cookies
• Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Block cookies
• Firefox: Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies

Changes to This Policy

We may update the Cookie Policy at any time. Continued use of the Site constitutes acceptance.
