Cookie Policy
Cookies are small text files stored by your browser; local storage is a similar store inside your browser. We set no advertising cookies. To measure visits, every page of this site uses Yandex Metrica, which sets its own analytics cookies on every visit (see section 3); in addition we run our own first-party statistics that work without cookies. This page lists what we use and lets you change your choice about session recordings at any time.

These cookies and entries do not require consent because the site cannot work as you requested without them. Local storage is not sent to our servers automatically.
3. Visit analytics
Yandex Metrica. Every page of this site loads Yandex Metrica, a web-analytics service provided by YANDEX LLC (16 Lva Tolstogo St., Moscow, Russia); for visitors from the EU/EEA, the United Kingdom and Switzerland the provider under the Yandex Metrica terms is Air Smart Advertising Solutions FZ-LLC. The counter runs on every visit, whatever you choose in the cookie banner. It receives your IP address, the address of the page and of the page you came from, information about your device, browser and screen, the time of the visit, clicks and the links you follow, and events on the site such as a completed chart calculation, the opening of the checkout page or a payment. It does not receive your birth data, your chart, the text you type into forms, your e-mail address or payment details, and it does not record your visit: Yandex Metrica's session replay (Webvisor) is switched off on this site. We use the reports in aggregate to understand which pages are useful and where visitors leave the site.
Yandex Metrica stores anonymous browser identifiers in cookies and in local storage on this site's domain and on Yandex domains:
| Name | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|
| _ym_uid, _ym_d, _ym_fa, _ym_ucs | distinguish visitors and store the date of the first visit | 1 year |
| _ym_isad | checks whether an ad blocker is active | 20 hours |
| _ym_metrika_enabled, _ym_hostIndex | technical operation of the counter and limiting the number of requests | 60 minutes; 1 day |
| gdpr, _ym_debug, _ym_sup_debug | mark visitors from GDPR jurisdictions; debugging of the counter | up to 2 years; until the end of the session; 1 day |
| yandexuid, yuidss, i, ymex, usst, yabs-sid, is_gdpr, is_gdpr_b (on Yandex domains) | set by Yandex on its own domains to identify the browser and synchronise identifiers between Yandex domains | mostly 1 year (yandexuid may be kept longer in some countries); yabs-sid — until the browser session ends; is_gdpr, is_gdpr_b — up to 2 years |
| _ym…_lastHit, _ym…_lsid, _ym…_reqNum, _ym_retryReqs, _ym_uid, zz (local storage) | technical records of the counter | until you clear them |
Yandex processes this data under the Yandex Metrica Terms of Use and the Yandex Privacy Policy, and for visitors from the EU/EEA, the United Kingdom and Switzerland also under the Yandex Metrica Data Processing Agreement. The data may be processed outside your country, including in Russia (see section 7 of the Privacy Policy).
How to stop Yandex Metrica. The cookie banner does not switch Yandex Metrica off. If you do not want it to measure your visits, block cookies or the domain mc.yandex.ru in your browser, use a content blocker, or install the official Yandex Metrica opt-out add-on. The site keeps working without it.
Our own statistics. In addition, we run our own, first-party analytics hosted on this site itself (the script /a/s.js). It is loaded on every page and records anonymous usage data only — for example pages viewed, referring source, clicks, how far you scroll, time on the page, device type and screen width. It uses no cookies and no browser storage: a temporary view key exists only in the memory of the open tab, and the data does not identify you personally and is not linked to your account.
A basic page-view measurement runs on every visit as a first-party statistic. The more detailed measurement (click maps and scroll tracking) is loaded only after you press “Accept all” in the banner, and it stays off if your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal. We never share this data with third-party analytics or advertising networks.
Session recording. Only after you press “Accept all”, the detailed measurement also notes where on the screen you click and keeps an anonymous recording of your visit to the page — page changes, pointer movements, clicks and scrolling — so that we can find and fix errors on the site. Everything you type into input fields is masked and never recorded, and blocks with your birth data, calculation results and the payment form are excluded from recordings. A recording is linked only to a random session identifier, not to your account, e-mail address or payment details. You can withdraw consent at any time in the cookie settings; recording stops after that.
4. What we do not use
We do not place advertising cookies and do not use social-media pixels. Apart from Yandex Metrica (section 3), no third-party cookies are set through this site for analytics or advertising.
The only exception is the checkout page: there our payment provider Stripe sets the cookies listed in section 2 and collects technical device and browser signals solely to prevent payment fraud. We do not receive these signals and do not use them for analytics or advertising.
5. How to withdraw or change consent
- Press “Change cookie settings” above and choose “No recordings”: session recordings and the detailed first-party measurement stop, and your choice is saved in your browser. Yandex Metrica keeps running; how to block it is described in section 3.
- Delete cookies for this site in your browser settings — the banner will appear again.
- Block third-party cookies in your browser; the site will keep working.
