Cookie Policy

What this policy covers

Cookies and browser storage can remember settings or collect information about use of a website. This policy explains what is set on loudscale.com when you visit.

Cookies and storage we set

LoudScale uses Google Analytics 4 and PostHog to measure traffic, engagement, and interactions on loudscale.com. These tools are loaded on every visit, without a consent prompt, so we can understand how the site is used and improve it.

Google Analytics 4 may set cookies such as _ga, _ga_*, _gid, and _gcl_au. PostHog may use cookies or local storage with names beginning with ph_, including a distinct identifier used to attribute sessions and a session-replay recording when enabled.

We also use a small amount of first-party local storage to remember UI state (for example, whether a section has been dismissed). No third-party advertising cookies are set by this site.

What we track

• Page views, navigation paths, referrers, and UTM campaign parameters.
• Scroll depth and on-page engagement time, including visibility changes.
• Clicks, including outbound link clicks and form field interactions.
• Form submissions (without the submitted values).
• Copy and paste events on page content.
• Site search queries from ?q=, ?query=, ?s=, and ?search=.
• JavaScript errors and unhandled promise rejections, for stability.
• Session replay (canvas and input) via PostHog for product and UX research.

How analytics are configured

Google Analytics 4 is configured with advertising features and Google signals enabled, and uses the beacon transport for reliable delivery. PostHog is configured with full autocapture, rage-click and dead-click detection, console log capture, performance metrics, heatmaps, and session recording at 100% sampling. PostHog is set to create person profiles for every visitor and ignores the Do Not Track signal so we get a complete picture of usage.
