The short version
We use a small number of cookies to make Hope & Wonder work properly and to understand how people use the platform so we can improve it. We do not use cookies to track you across the internet, to serve you advertising, or to sell your data to anyone. Ever.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device when you visit. They help the site remember things - like whether you are signed in - so you do not have to start from scratch every time you arrive.
The cookies we use
We use three types of cookies on Hope & Wonder:
Essential cookies
These are necessary for the platform to function. They keep you signed in, remember your preferences, and ensure the site works as it should. Without them, Hope & Wonder would not work. These cookies cannot be turned off.
Analytics cookies
On the public Hope & Wonder website (for example the homepage, hopes & wonders, networks, and help pages) we use Google Analytics to understand how people find and use the site — which pages are visited and how people move through the site. This helps us improve the platform. Google Analytics uses cookies and may process your IP address and device information. We have not enabled Google advertising features and we do not use analytics cookies to show you ads on other websites. The member dashboard at dash.hopeandwonder.space does not load Google Analytics.
Functionality cookies
These remember your preferences - such as your preferred language or display settings - so your experience is consistent each time you visit.
What we do not do
We do not use advertising cookies. We do not sell, share, or trade analytics data for commercial purposes. We do not use cookies to build a profile of you for targeted advertising.
Hope & Wonder is not an advertising platform. It never will be. Our use of analytics is limited to improving the public website.
