Cookie and local-storage notice
Lautern Pulse uses essential storage by default. Anonymous daily visit measurement runs without local analytics storage. Persistent first-party analytics storage starts only after explicit opt-in through “Accept all”; ad targeting and marketing cookies are not enabled.
Anonymous page views use a daily server-side hash for aggregate admin reporting. Consented analytics page views also use a local random visitor ID. The server does not persist raw IP addresses or user-agent strings.
Consent evidence and cookie-category changes must be retained with timestamped logs so GDPR and TDDDG audits can verify lawful preference handling.
