This page explains what cookies are, which cookies we use on onthespotdev.com, and how you can manage them.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device. They help the site work, remember your choices, and show us how the site is used. Some cookies are set by us (first-party), others by services we use, such as analytics tools (third-party).

2. How we ask for your consent

When you first visit the site, we show a cookie banner. Nothing except essential cookies is set until you make a choice. You can accept all cookies, keep only the necessary ones, or pick categories yourself. You can change your choice at any time via the Cookie settings link in the footer. Your choice is stored for 6 months, after which we ask again.

3. Necessary cookies

These keep the site working and cannot be turned off.

ots_cookie_consent (On The Spot Development). Stores your cookie preferences. Retention: 6 months.

4. Analytics cookies

Set only if you allow the Analytics category. We use Google Analytics 4, loaded through Google Tag Manager, to understand which pages people read and where they leave. Data is aggregated. Google Tag Manager itself does not set cookies.

_ga (Google Analytics). Distinguishes visitors. Retention: 2 years.
_ga_* (Google Analytics). Keeps session state. Retention: 2 years.

5. Marketing cookies

Set only if you allow the Marketing category. We use HubSpot to understand which campaigns and sources bring visitors to us, and LinkedIn Insight Tag to measure our LinkedIn presence and show relevant content to professional audiences.

6. How to manage cookies

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time: open Cookie settings in the footer, switch the categories, and save. You can also delete cookies in your browser settings; in that case the banner will appear again on your next visit.

If you withdraw consent, we stop setting new cookies from the categories you turned off. Cookies that were set earlier expire on their own schedule, or you can remove them in your browser.
