Cookies and website analytics

Your choice

The “Analytics cookies” choice controls Google Analytics. The “Advertising cookies” choice controls Meta Pixel. Each tool is blocked until you allow its category. Use the checkboxes and “Save choices,” “Allow all optional,” or “Reject optional cookies.” Allowing analytics does not give permission to load advertising tools. Rejecting either category does not prevent you from reading the website or using its forms. Change your choices using “Cookie settings” in the footer. We respect the Global Privacy Control browser signal by keeping both optional tools off.

Your choice is stored in this browser’s local storage for up to 180 days. If browser storage is unavailable, the choice applies only to the current page. Clearing browser storage resets the choice.

Optional Google Analytics

If you agree, Google Analytics 4 measures public page visits, referral sources, engagement, access-button clicks, and successful access requests, contact enquiries, and newsletter signups. It uses cookies named _ga and _ga_* with a configured lifetime of up to 180 days. Google receives usage information, browser/device information, and network information as part of these requests.

We send public page addresses without arbitrary query strings or fragments, referral domains without their paths, and a limited set of non-personal campaign labels. We do not send form contents, email addresses, office names, report content, or case identifiers to Google Analytics. Automatic enhanced measurement, Google signals, and Google advertising personalization are disabled. No Google Ads integration is installed.

Withdrawing consent stops future Analytics collection by this integration and removes its Analytics cookies from this browser. It does not erase data already sent to Google. See how Google uses information from sites that use its services.

Optional Meta Pixel

If you separately allow Meta Pixel, Meta receives public website page views, access-button clicks, and generic successful enquiry or newsletter-registration events, along with browser/device information, network information, page addresses, referral information, and cookie or click identifiers. Meta may associate this activity with your Facebook or Instagram account and use it for measurement and advertising under its own policies, even when we are not running ads.

Meta may set first-party cookies named _fbp and _fbc, typically lasting up to 90 days, and may receive existing Meta cookies according to your browser settings. Our integration does not pass form field values or case information. Automatic advanced matching and automatic event detection are off. We do not use the server-side Conversions API. The Pixel is restricted to approved public pages and does not load when the page or referrer contains an unexpected URL path, query, or fragment.

Turning Meta off in Cookie settings revokes future Pixel events and removes its first-party cookies from this website. It cannot remove cookies set on Meta’s own domains or erase activity already shared. You can also review your activity and privacy choices with Meta. See Meta’s privacy policy and Meta’s cookie policy.

Cloudflare and form protection

Cloudflare hosts and protects the public website. The website also uses Cloudflare Web Analytics and Cloudflare Turnstile for form verification. The optional cookie choices control Google Analytics and Meta Pixel; they do not disable hosting, security, form verification, or Cloudflare’s separate website measurement.

Fonts are hosted with the website. Google Analytics and Meta Pixel are restricted to public pages on forensicreport.org. They do not run on app.forensicreport.org, www.forensicreport.org, or any other subdomain. This notice covers the public marketing website, not authenticated forensic casework.
