Cookies and Privacy Choices
Effective: 7 October 2026
This notice explains browser storage, pixels and related data use by us, the provider of Aether Bonds (Company information). Contact support@aetherbonds.com. Read it with our Privacy Policy.
How choices work where you are
- EU/EEA, UK, Switzerland, Canada (and if we can't tell your location):
- We show a "Cookie settings" banner. Advertising technologies stay off until you choose Accept, and Reject is always as easy as Accept.
- We measure site use with PostHog in cookieless mode: nothing is stored on your device. PostHog counts visits with an anonymous code computed from your IP address and browser type, using a key that changes daily and is then deleted. No session replays run.
- You can object to this measurement at Your privacy choices.
- Everywhere else: analytics and advertising technologies are on by default. You can turn them off anytime with Your privacy choices / Do not sell or share. We honour Global Privacy Control as an opt-out of advertising disclosures, including server-side events.
Declining never blocks a purchase, your reading, billing, cancellation or withdrawal.

What these tools never receive:
- Advertising and analytics tools never receive your quiz answers, your sketch choice, your reading or your birth date.
- Advertising tools, the PostHog script and session replay never run on your reading, member, account, billing, cancellation or withdrawal pages.
- For members, our servers record a few usage events (for example that a check-in was opened), tied to an internal member ID and never with content.
Change your mind
- To change or withdraw a choice: use the "Privacy choices" footer link or open Your privacy choices.
- Other browsers: some choices are per browser, so repeat them there unless a signal like GPC applies.
- Browser controls: you can also clear or block cookies in your browser. Blocking essential storage may break sign-in or checkout; help is available at support@aetherbonds.com.
- Separate settings: marketing emails are controlled by the unsubscribe link in each email. Canceling a membership happens in Billing.
