Cookie policy.

Two small first-party cookies that the site needs to work as you set it. Neither is used for tracking or advertising, and neither is sent to anyone else.

• astron_consent
  Astro ECS · 1 year
  Set when you answer the cookie banner: remembers whether you accepted or declined analytics, so we do not ask on every page.
• astron_locale
  Astro ECS · 1 year
  Remembers the language you chose. Set only when you pick a language.

These live in your browser's local or session storage. They stay on your device and are not sent with every request the way cookies are.

• astron_session
  Astro ECS · local storage · Until you sign out
  Keeps you signed in. Removed when you sign out.
• astron_consent
  Astro ECS · local storage · Until you change it
  A copy of your analytics choice (the cookie above holds the same value).
• astron_utm_first_touch, astron_utm_last_touch
  Astro ECS · local storage · Until you clear site data
  Only when you arrive through a link carrying utm_ tags: the campaign tags and the page you landed on, so a purchase can be credited to the campaign that brought you. Never sent to Google, Meta or Microsoft.
• astron_journey_excluded
  Astro ECS · local storage · Until you clear site data
  The journey cards you marked as not relevant.
• astron_public_config
  Astro ECS · session storage · Until you close the tab
  Site settings such as whether the free launch is on, so pages do not re-ask the server.
• astron_pending_event_id, astron_pending_sku, astron_pending_amount
  Astro ECS · session storage · Until the payment page loads or you close the tab
  Links a payment back to the checkout you started, so it is counted once.
• astron_meta_lead_sent
  Astro ECS · session storage · Until you close the tab
  Only if you accepted analytics: stops a free report being counted twice.

Google Analytics, the Meta Pixel and Microsoft Clarity load only after you click Accept analytics in the cookie banner. If you decline, or never answer, none of them is loaded and none of these cookies is set. When you accept, the same measurement events are also sent from our server to Meta (the Conversions API), as described in § 03 of the Privacy Policy.

Microsoft Clarity shows us how our pages are used: clicks, scrolling and a replay of the page. It runs only on our public pages, such as home, pricing, the catalog and the legal pages, and never on pages with your chart, readings or account. Anything you type there, such as birth details or your email address, is masked before it leaves your browser. Your birth details, questions and answers are never sent to Google, Meta or Microsoft.

• _ga
  Google Analytics · 2 years
  Tells visits from the same browser apart, to count visitors and pages.
• _ga_<ID>
  Google Analytics · 2 years
  Keeps the state of the current visit for Google Analytics.
• _fbp
  Meta Pixel · 90 days
  Lets Meta measure which ads lead to visits, free reports and purchases.
• _fbc
  Meta Pixel · 90 days
  Only when you arrive by clicking a Meta ad: records that click so it can be measured.
• _clck
  Microsoft Clarity · 1 year
  Keeps one random Clarity ID for this browser, so repeat visits can be told apart.
• _clsk
  Microsoft Clarity · 1 day
  Joins the pages of one visit into a single recording.
• CLID
  Microsoft Clarity · on clarity.ms · 1 year
  Set by Microsoft on its own domain: records when Clarity first saw this browser.

You can accept or decline again at any time. Declining stops all further measurement at once; cookies Google, Meta or Microsoft already set stay until they expire or you clear them in your browser's settings. Declining never limits what you can do on Astro ECS.
