Welcome to the Wayfinder Blog! Committed to maintaining your privacy, we employ Plausible Analytics for website analytics without the use of traditional cookies, emphasizing a privacy-first approach.

Traditionally, cookies are small text files used by websites to remember information about users. However, our site, built with Hugo and using Plausible Analytics, does not use traditional cookies to track personal information.

- Privacy-focused: Plausible Analytics is a privacy-friendly analytics tool that does not use cookies and fully complies with GDPR, CCPA, and PECR.
- Anonymous data collection: We collect anonymous metrics such as page views, referral sources, and site interaction to understand our audience better without identifying individual users.

While our analytics do not track or store personal information, you still have control over your data:
- Browser settings: Most modern browsers offer features to block tracking or analytics. Consult your browser’s help section to learn more about these options.
- Opt-out of analytics: For those who wish to completely opt-out of analytics, using tools or browser extensions that block analytics scripts can further ensure your browsing data remains private.
