Cookie Notice

The short version

gummyprism.com does not use tracking cookies. It stores one value in your browser to remember the choice you made about notifications, and, only if you accept, the browser notification service adds a few technical entries of its own. Nothing here profiles you for advertising, because this site carries no advertising.

Cookies and local storage explained

A cookie is a small file a site asks your browser to keep. Local storage and IndexedDB do a similar job with a larger allowance and without attaching data to every request. A service worker is a small script the browser keeps so a notification can arrive when the page is closed. This notice treats all four together, because from your side they are the same question: what is kept on my device, and why.

Strictly necessary

• gpConsentChoice — local storage, set when you press Accept or Decline. It records that single choice so the notice at the foot of the page does not return on every visit. It contains no identifier and is never transmitted to us. It remains until you clear your browser storage.

This entry is what makes an honest consent notice possible, so it is set on either answer, including Decline.

Analytics

None. We run no analytics script, no visitor counter and no heat-mapping tool on this site, so no analytics cookie is set. The only usage information that exists is in the ordinary server logs kept by our host, which are described in the Privacy Policy.

Notifications and marketing

These entries exist only after you press Accept or tick the consent box on the subscription form. Until then the OneSignal script is not added to the page at all, so nothing below is created.

• os_* entries and the ONE_SIGNAL_SDK_DB database — local storage and IndexedDB, written by OneSignal to hold your subscriber identifier, your permission state and delivery settings. They persist until you clear storage or revoke permission.
• OneSignalSDKWorker.js — a service worker registered so a notification can be shown while the site is closed. It is removed when you unregister it in your browser settings or clear the site data.

Pressing Decline removes those keys, deletes that database and leaves the service unloaded. We use these entries to deliver editorial notes; we do not use them to build an advertising profile, and there is no advertising network on this site to receive one.

Changing your mind

• Clear the site data for gummyprism.com in your browser settings. The notice reappears on your next visit and you can answer again.
• Revoke notification permission for this site in your browser’s site settings; delivery stops immediately.
• Use the unsubscribe link in any email we send to leave the list.
• Write to hq@gummyprism.com and ask us to remove your record entirely.

Blocking storage for this site will not break your reading of it; the only visible effect is that the notice will greet you each time.

Third parties

OneSignal is the only third party that can place anything on your device through this site, and only after your consent. Its role, the overseas transfer involved and your rights are set out in the Privacy Policy. Google Play is a separate service governed by Google’s own notices; nothing on this page places a Google cookie on your device.

Questions

Anything unclear here can be raised with us at hq@gummyprism.com, and if our answer does not satisfy you, the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner at oaic.gov.au accepts complaints about privacy in Australia.
