To allow analytics to work. I use a minimalist program that just gives me a counter for what articles are read and how often. No IPs. No ads. No trackers. No cross site profiling. No third party analytics beacons.

I’m explicit about what’s used and why. I believe in transparency.

I appreciate the response and hope you know I’m sincerely questioning and not attacking. I think the concerning cookies were these: I am curious what the iframe is doing. Maybe classifying that could increase trust. Thanks again

Fair question. That iframe is first party and local only.

It’s used by the site platform to render embedded content and manage layout state. The embedded_iframe_* entry is localStorage, not a tracking cookie, and it does not phone home or follow you across sites. It exists because modern CMSs are component based.
