Cookie Policy

We use only essential security cookies. No tracking, no advertising.

Last updated: May 2026

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device when you visit them. They serve a variety of purposes — from remembering your preferences to tracking your behaviour across sites. This policy explains which cookies are present on whamtoday.com and why.

Cookies We Use

whamtoday.com is a static website with no first-party cookies. We do not set any cookies ourselves for tracking, analytics, advertising, or personalisation.

Cloudflare Security Cookie (__cf_bm)

Because this site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages, Cloudflare may set one essential security cookie:

Name Purpose Duration Type
__cf_bm Bot management and security. Distinguishes humans from bots to protect the site. 30 minutes Essential

This cookie contains no personal information. It is set by Cloudflare and is essential for the secure delivery of this website. It cannot be disabled without affecting site functionality.

For full details, see Cloudflare's Privacy Policy and their cookie documentation.

Third-Party Cookies

When you click a YouTube link from this site, you navigate to YouTube (a Google service). YouTube may set its own cookies on the YouTube domain. These are governed by Google's Privacy Policy. We have no control over YouTube cookies.

Google Fonts (used for typography on this site) may also set a cookie or log font requests when loaded from the Google CDN. See Google Privacy Policy.

Cookies We Do Not Use

We do not use:

  • Analytics cookies (Google Analytics, Plausible, Matomo, Hotjar, etc.)
  • Advertising or retargeting cookies (Meta Pixel, Google Ads, etc.)
  • Social media tracking cookies (Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.)
  • Personalisation or preference cookies
  • Session or login cookies (there are no user accounts on this site)

How to Control Cookies

You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Instructions for common browsers:

  • Google Chrome
  • Mozilla Firefox
  • Apple Safari
  • Microsoft Edge

Note: blocking the Cloudflare security cookie (__cf_bm) may cause the site to be inaccessible or load incorrectly.

EU / UK Cookie Consent

Under the EU Cookie Directive (ePrivacy Directive) and UK PECR, only strictly necessary cookies may be set without consent. The Cloudflare __cf_bm cookie falls under the "strictly necessary" category — it is required for the secure delivery of the website and does not require a consent banner.

Because we set no non-essential cookies, no cookie consent banner is necessary on this site.

Changes to This Policy

If we add new features to this site that require additional cookies, this policy will be updated accordingly. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent change.
