  <h1 class="page-title">COOKIE POLICY</h1>
  <div class="page-subtitle">How we use cookies and similar technologies on synarka.pro.</div>
  <div class="page-meta">Effective 1 May 2026 · Last reviewed 29 June 2026 · Subject to Australian law</div>

  <h2>1. What are cookies?</h2>
  <p>Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, or phone) when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember your actions and preferences over a period of time, so you don't have to keep re-entering them whenever you return. Cookies are widely used to make websites work, improve site performance, and provide information to site operators.</p>
  <p>Similar technologies — such as web beacons, pixel tags, and local storage — perform comparable functions and are covered by this Policy.</p>

  <h2>2. Cookies on synarka.pro — current state</h2>

  <div class="callout">
    <strong>Current state (as at 1 May 2026):</strong> synarka.pro is a static brand site. We do not currently set any tracking cookies or operate analytics services on this domain. The site uses only essential cookies that may be set automatically by our hosting and CDN providers (such as GitHub Pages or Cloudflare) to deliver the site reliably and prevent abuse. As we evolve our delivery infrastructure (e.g. introducing analytics, newsletter signups, or a paid tier portal), this Policy will be updated and this section will reflect the new scope.
  </div>

  <h2>3. Categories of cookies we may use</h2>

  <table class="cookie-table">
    <thead>
      <tr>
        <th>Type</th>
        <th>Purpose</th>
      </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
      <tr>
        <td><strong>Essential / Strictly Necessary</strong></td>
        <td>Required for the site to function properly. These cookies enable basic features such as page navigation, secure connections, and CDN load balancing. They cannot be switched off.</td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td><strong>Performance / Analytics</strong></td>
        <td>If and when deployed, these cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the site by collecting anonymous, aggregate information (such as pages visited, time on site, referral sources). We will update this Policy before activating analytics tooling.</td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td><strong>Functionality</strong></td>
        <td>If and when deployed, these allow the site to remember choices you make (such as language, region, or display preferences) to provide a more personalised experience.</td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td><strong>Third-Party / Embedded Content</strong></td>
        <td>Pages that embed third-party content (e.g. Telegram links, X/LinkedIn posts, YouTube videos, Substack newsletters) may set their own cookies as governed by those providers' policies. We have no control over these cookies.</td>
      </tr>
    </tbody>
  </table>

  <h2>4. Third-party cookies and services</h2>
  <p>When we link to or embed content from external services, those services may place their own cookies on your device. Examples include:</p>
  <ul>
    <li><strong>Cloudflare</strong> — for CDN, security, and bot protection (essential).</li>
    <li><strong>GitHub Pages / Netlify</strong> — for hosting the static site (essential).</li>
    <li><strong>Google Fonts</strong> — when embedded fonts load from Google's servers (the request itself may be logged by Google).</li>
    <li><strong>External platform embeds</strong> — Telegram, X, LinkedIn, YouTube, Substack, Beehiiv, etc., when their content is embedded or linked.</li>
  </ul>
  <p>Each of these providers operates under their own privacy and cookie policies, which we encourage you to review.</p>

  <h2>5. Your control over cookies</h2>
  <p>You can control and manage cookies in several ways. Please note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of synarka.pro and many other websites you visit.</p>

  <h3>Browser settings</h3>
  <p>Most modern browsers allow you to:</p>
  <ul>
    <li>View what cookies are stored on your device.</li>
    <li>Block all cookies, third-party cookies, or cookies from specific sites.</li>
    <li>Delete cookies when you close your browser.</li>
    <li>Receive notifications when cookies are set.</li>
  </ul>
  <p>Refer to your browser's help documentation: <a href="https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95647" target="_blank">Chrome</a> · <a href="https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/cookies-information-websites-store-on-your-computer" target="_blank">Firefox</a> · <a href="https://support.apple.com/en-au/guide/safari/sfri11471/mac" target="_blank">Safari</a> · <a href="https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/delete-cookies-in-microsoft-edge-63947406-40ac-c3b8-57b9-2a946a29ae09" target="_blank">Edge</a>.</p>

  <h3>Opt-out tools</h3>
  <p>For analytics and advertising cookies (where applicable in future), you can use industry opt-out tools such as the <a href="https://www.youronlinechoices.com.au/" target="_blank">Australian Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out</a>.</p>

  <h2>6. "Do Not Track" signals</h2>
  <p>Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. There is currently no industry-wide standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. We do not currently respond to DNT signals because synarka.pro does not deploy tracking cookies. If we introduce tracking in the future, we will document our DNT handling here.</p>

  <h2>7. Changes to this Cookie Policy</h2>
  <p>We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our use of cookies, our services, or applicable law. The "Last reviewed" date at the top of this page indicates when it was most recently updated. Material changes will be communicated through our intelligence channels.</p>

  <h2>8. More information</h2>
  <p>For broader information about how we handle your personal information, please refer to our <a href="privacy.html">Privacy Policy</a>. For the legal terms governing your use of synarka.pro, see our <a href="terms.html">Terms of Use</a>.</p>
