03 · Section 1 The short version.
- 1.1 The pages of the Site set no advertising, analytics, social media or cross-site tracking cookie.
- 1.2 The page code stores a few preferences and caches in your browser, listed below. None of them holds an identifier, and none is sent to a third party.

04 · Section 2 Cookies and browser storage.
| Name | Kind | Set by | Purpose | Category | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| nxe_consent | Cookie | The consent tool of the site | Records the privacy choices you make and the version of the notice you saw, so you are not asked again on every page. Where a site still uses another consent tool, that tool keeps the same record under its own name. | Necessary | Up to 13 months |
| wordpress_logged_in_* | Cookie | The WordPress software, for signed-in accounts only | Keeps a signed-in account holder recognised between pages. Not set for visitors who only read. | Necessary | Session, or 14 days with "Remember me" |
| wordpress_sec_* | Cookie | The WordPress software, for signed-in accounts only | Secures a signed-in session. | Necessary | Session, or 14 days |
The WordPress software that publishes the Site sets cookies for signed-in editors. A feature a visitor uses that needs a cookie, such as a form, sets it for that feature only and as a strictly necessary cookie. Nothing else is stored on your device by the Site.
05 · Section 3 Consent categories.
| Category | What it covers | Used by the page code |
|---|---|---|
| Necessary | Needed for the site to work and to remember your privacy choices. Always on. | Yes: the entries listed above |
| Preferences | Remember settings you choose, such as language or layout, beyond what is strictly needed. | No |
| Statistics | Help us understand how the site is used, in aggregate, so we can improve it. | No |
| Marketing | Measure campaigns and show relevant content on other sites. Off when your browser sends Global Privacy Control. | No |
| External media | Load content hosted by other services: map tiles, videos and other embeds. Those services receive your IP address. | The services listed below are requested when a map or tool is shown; they store nothing in your browser |
These are the categories of the consent tool installed on the Site, with the same names and descriptions, so that the choices you make there and this notice correspond. Statistics and Marketing are not used by the page code; if a site ever turns them on, its consent tool asks for your consent first and this notice is updated.
06 · Section 4 Third-party services the pages request.
| Host | Service | What is requested | When |
|---|
These requests carry no cookie from the Site, and the live water map sends no referrer. Links to other services, such as Zenodo, ORCID, DOI resolvers and social sharing, make no request until you follow them. Services that were removed from the Site are not requested.
07 · Section 5 Your choices.
- 5.1 Preferences and caches can be cleared at any time in your browser settings; the pages work without them.
- 5.2 Blocking the third-party hosts above in your browser leaves the text of every page readable; the maps or tools that need them show a static view or a message instead.
- 5.3 If the Site ever adds a cookie that is not strictly necessary, such as for measurement, it will ask for your consent first where the law requires it, record your choice and let you change it at any time.
08 · Section 6 Legal basis and contact.
- 6.1 Storage that is strictly necessary for a service you request is used without consent where the law allows, including under the ePrivacy rules of the European Union and the United Kingdom and Canadian privacy law. Anything else needs your consent.
- 6.2 Questions go to contact@iranians.global. How personal information is handled is set out in the Privacy Policy.
