Side question for the author (@sneak): I've noticed some _pk cookie (Motomo?) being injected while visiting your page and some attempted requests to t.sneak.cloud (and others) but haven't (yet) found a consent notice on your site.

What's up?

My site sends cookie headers to your browser, which can optionally be returned to my server on subsequent requests if you so desire. Your browser will have settings to configure this behavior so that you can set it to whatever you wish. My site still works fine if you do not send any cookie headers whatsoever, so you will have no issues browsing it with cookies disabled or cleared (or not persisted) at your option.

I find the Cookie Autodelete browser extension to be extremely useful in this regard.

That’s ok. As you seem to be based in Germany would you please point me to the relevant consent notice?

Nobody cares about your consent notices, stay on topic here, this is about apple.

It is on point: if you stopped a second to think and consider the context you might have gotten it.

It looks like you're also settings some mailchimp cookies?
