Cookie Policy
Last updated: 21 August 2026
1. What this policy covers
This policy explains cookies and similar browser technologies used on the Chapter 2 website, including local storage, pixels, SDKs and consent records.
Osano is the site's consent manager. Optional analytics and marketing tools do not load until the matching category is accepted. Denial, withdrawal and Global Privacy Control keep optional tools off and trigger cleanup of relevant browser identifiers.
2. Current technology inventory
Strictly necessary hosting
The website is delivered through Vercel. Ordinary browsing of this site does not set a hosting cookie in your browser. Vercel still processes normal network request information needed to serve and protect the site, as described in the Privacy Policy.
Site fonts
The site uses local system fonts and does not request runtime font files from Google Fonts.
In-memory event queue
The first-party script queues one page view object on page load and an outbound click object when a tracked music link is selected. Those queue objects live only in the open page's memory and are not cookies. Separately, after the matching consent, Google Analytics, PostHog or Meta Pixel may receive measurement events as described below.
3. Current cookie table
The exact set can vary by browser and vendor response. Optional identifiers appear only after the matching consent.
| Name | Provider or domain | Category | Purpose | Duration / expiry | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Osano consent record | Chapter 2 / Osano | Essential | Remember and enforce privacy choices | 12 months from the last recorded choice (fixed) | Always available |
| _ga and _ga_* | Google Analytics | Analytics | Audience and site-use measurement | 2 years, rolling with each consented visit (browsers may cap sooner, for example Chrome at 400 days) | Analytics consent only |
| ph_* cookies and related storage | PostHog | Analytics | Product and page-use measurement | Cookies: 365 days, rolling. Local storage: until withdrawal, expiry or manual clearing | Analytics consent only |
| _fbp, _fbc | Meta | Marketing | Advertising measurement | 90 days, rolling. _fbc is set only if a Meta click identifier is present | Marketing consent only |
These durations are the production vendor defaults used by this site. Controller settings can shorten them; they do not extend them beyond the values above. Withdrawal clears the matching browser identifiers before the listed expiry. Vendor privacy information: Osano, Google Analytics cookies, PostHog, and Meta.
4. Consent-controlled and redirect technologies
Meta Pixel
Meta Pixel and Meta's Conversions API are categorized as Marketing and operate only after Marketing consent. Matching browser and server events use a random event identifier to prevent duplicate counting. Server events may include ordinary request information such as IP address, browser user agent and Meta browser identifiers.
Short.io
Selected Spotify, Apple Music and YouTube/VEVO calls to action currently use branded links.celinasharma.live Short.io redirects. Short.io is not loaded as a page tracker. It receives a request only after you choose one of those links, then redirects you to the selected service; the destination may process information under its own policy.
Analytics, tag manager and consent manager
Osano manages choices. Google Analytics and PostHog are categorized as Analytics and load only after Analytics consent. Google Tag Manager is not used.
5. External links
The site links to VYD/ERA, Spotify, Apple Music, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube. Their cookies are not placed merely because their links appear here. If you choose a link, you leave the Chapter 2 website and the destination may set its own cookies under its own policy.
6. Managing choices
Use Cookie Settings at any time to review, change or withdraw your choices. Withdrawal immediately updates consent signals, stops optional collection and clears relevant browser identifiers, including cookies and local-storage keys, where technically available.
US state residents can also use the Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information link, available here and in the site footer, to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, including sharing for cross-context behavioral advertising.
Global Privacy Control is treated as a denial of all optional categories. The essential Osano consent record remains so the site can remember and honor your choice.
