Clover ERAWhat we use cookies for, and how to manage them.
Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device to remember preferences and measure usage. We use them sparingly. The platform itself is built so individual employee data stays on the device — see the Privacy Policy for the architectural anonymity model. This page documents the cookies the public website uses and lets you change your preferences at any time.

Section 01
What cookies are
Cookies and similar technologies (local storage, pixels, beacons) are small files or pieces of data that a website asks your browser to store. The next time you visit the site, the browser sends them back. This lets the site remember things — your preferences, whether you're logged in, whether you've already dismissed a banner — without you having to set them again.
Cookies are not malicious by default. The privacy concern is that some cookies — particularly those set by third parties — can be used to track behaviour across many sites and build advertising profiles. We do not do that.
Section 02
Cookie categories
We group cookies by purpose:
- Strictly necessary. Required for the site to function. Includes session cookies, security tokens, and the cookie that records your consent preferences. Cannot be disabled because the site cannot work without them.
- Functional. Remember your preferences (language, accepted cookies, hidden banners). Not strictly required but improve the experience.
- Analytics. Help us understand which pages get traffic and how readers move through the site, in aggregate. We use a privacy-respecting analytics provider that does not use cross-site tracking.
We do not use marketing, advertising, or social-tracking cookies on this site.

Cookies set by external services we link to (Calendly for the Cohort Conversation, Substack for the newsletter, Amazon for book purchases) are governed by those services' own cookie policies. Visiting cloverera.com does not set those cookies; they are set when you click through to the third-party site.
Section 04
Manage your preferences
Adjust which cookie categories you accept. Strictly necessary cookies are required for the site to work and cannot be disabled. Your choices apply to this browser on this device and persist for 12 months.
Section 05
Third-party cookies
The public website does not embed third-party advertising trackers. When you click through to external services we reference, those services may set their own cookies governed by their policies:
Section 06
Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control
If your browser sends a Do Not Track (DNT) header or a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, we treat those signals as an opt-out of analytics cookies. You will not see a separate consent banner; the analytics category will default to off and you can re-enable it on this page if you choose.
Section 07
Changes to this policy
If we add new cookie categories or change how we use existing ones, we will update this page and refresh the consent banner so you can review and re-accept. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent revision.
