Third parties

Google Fonts, Pexels, Unsplash and Etsy serve parts of the page and receive technical data about your connection. If you visit our Etsy shop, Etsy applies its own cookies on its site.

Analytics

We use Vercel Web Analytics, which works without cookies and doesn't store anything in your browser. It only gives us aggregated, anonymous numbers such as page views.

We also keep our own anonymous counts of a few actions (saving to My Bag, Etsy clicks, City Notes sign-ups). They use no cookies and contain no IP address or personal data. See the privacy policy.

If we ever add Google Analytics, which uses cookies such as _ga, we'll ask for your consent where the law requires it and update this page first.
