Cookie Policy

Effective date: September 25, 2026.

H-CAT Toolkit is an independently run creative project based in Kansas, United States. This Cookie Policy explains how the H-CAT website and H-CAT Community use cookies and similar browser storage. Privacy questions can be sent to privacy@hcatoolkit.com.

What cookies are

Cookies are small pieces of data saved by a browser. Websites can also use similar browser storage. Some technologies support features you request; others help website operators understand how their sites are used. Whether a particular technology is used depends on the page, your sign-in state and your consent choices.

Cookies and services we use

Functional and security technologies: WordPress, H-CAT Community features and Complianz use cookies or similar storage for functions such as signing in, remembering interface and consent preferences, keeping accounts secure and operating requested website features. Some cookies identified in administrator scans are limited to signed-in administrators and do not necessarily appear for ordinary visitors.

Statistics: H-CAT uses Google Analytics 4 to understand visits and use of the public website. Complianz asks for your statistics consent before activating Google Analytics 4 and Jetpack Stats. You can decline or later change your choice through the consent controls on this site.

External content and anti-spam tools: An embedded video, social widget, security challenge or another external feature may contact its provider when used. Such features can vary across pages. The initial scanner also detected some logged-in or administrator-related cookies; a scan alone does not establish what every visitor receives.

Your cookie choices

Our consent banner lets you make choices about optional cookie categories, including statistics where applicable. Cookies needed for services you expressly request, such as logging in, may still be used. You can change your choices below or use your browser controls to delete or block cookies. Blocking essential cookies may interfere with signing in and community features.

Cookie inventory

The following inventory is maintained through Complianz and its cookie database. The scanner may not detect every cookie used on members-only pages or distinguish every administrator-only cookie; the inventory may be revised as other site features are tested.
