Cookie Policy
Last updated: August 2026
This policy explains which cookies and similar technologies the Moat Atlas uses, why, and how you can control them. Analytics stay cookieless until you opt in.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small data files placed on your device when you visit a site. They are used to make the site work, to remember your choices, and to measure how the site is used. This site also uses localStorage for the same purposes, and treats it under the same rules.
Categories we use
Essential
Strictly necessary for the site to work and cannot be switched off. They only store what you asked for — your cookie choice itself.
Analytics
Let us count visits and see which sheets and groupings people actually use, so the atlas can be improved. We use Google Analytics 4 with Consent Mode v2; until you accept, it runs without cookies.
Marketing
Would be set by advertising partners to build a profile of your interests. The atlas sets none today; the category exists so your choice is recorded if that ever changes.
Personalization
Let the site remember your language, theme and last grouping so the section opens the way you left it.
Specific storage we use
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Category |
|---|---|---|---|
moat-atlas-consent | Stores your cookie choice | Persistent (until cleared) | Essential |
moat-atlas-theme | Remembers dark or light theme | Persistent (until cleared) | Personalization |
_ga / _ga_* | Google Analytics 4 — distinguishes unique visitors | 2 years | Analytics |
moat-atlas-eu-check | Remembers whether the banner is required in your region, so the check runs once | Session (until the tab is closed) | Essential |
