What cookies and browser storage are
Cookies are small pieces of information stored by a website in your browser. Local storage and session storage are similar browser features. They help a site remember essential information between pages or visits.

Analytics, marketing and advertising
If you accept analytics, Google Analytics records limited information about visits and pages viewed so we can understand and improve the beta. We do not send profile, plan, participant or preference form details to Google Analytics. The app does not use advertising or marketing cookies. Google Fonts is requested to display the site typeface.
Your analytics choice
Google Analytics does not load unless you select “Accept analytics” in the cookie notice. You can reject analytics and continue to use the app. Use “Cookie settings” in the footer at any time to review or change your choice.
Managing storage
You can clear cookies and site storage in your browser settings. Clearing the authentication item will sign you out. Browser controls vary, so consult your browser’s help pages for instructions.
