Privacy
Cookies on this site
Five cookies. No advertising trackers, no data brokers, and no third-party consent vendor loading its own script to ask you about cookies. Here is the whole list.
We use cookies for two things: keeping the site working, and understanding which pages, manufacturer lines, and calculators actually get used so we build more of what helps you. Nothing optional is switched on until you choose it.
We do not sell or share your personal information, and we honour the Global Privacy Control signal automatically. If your browser sends it, everything optional stays off and we won't ask again.
The three categories
Strictly necessary Always on
Sign-in, security, and remembering this cookie choice. The site cannot function without these, so they cannot be switched off.
Analytics
Which pages and tools get used, so we invest in the ones that help you. Aggregate reporting only, never sold and never shared with advertisers.
Marketing
Would allow us to measure campaigns and show relevant ads elsewhere. Nothing in this category is active today.
Every cookie, named
| Cookie | Category | Set by | What it does | Kept for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| rac_consent | Strictly necessary | Rust Automation | Remembers your cookie choices so we don't ask again. Contains only your category selections and the date you made them. It contains no identifier. | 12 months |
| ns_session | Strictly necessary | Rust Automation | Keeps you signed in if you have a Rust account. Only set after you sign in. | 14 days |
| rac_attr | Marketing | Rust Automation | Remembers which ad, campaign, or link brought you to us, so that if you send a quote request we know which of our efforts to credit. Contains no name or contact details, and is never shared. Only set if you allow marketing cookies. Otherwise the same information is held for your visit only and discarded when you close the tab. | 90 days |
| firebase / identity storage | Strictly necessary | Google Firebase | Used on the sign-in page only, to complete the sign-in handshake and keep you authenticated. Only set if you use the sign-in page. | Session – 30 days |
| _ga, _ga_<id> | Analytics | Google Analytics | Counts visits and tells us which pages, lines, and tools people actually use, so we know what to build next. Not set unless you allow analytics. | 13 months |
| (none currently) | Marketing | Not applicable | We do not currently run advertising or remarketing cookies. If that ever changes, this table and the banner change with it. The category exists so the choice is already yours. | Not applicable |
Your choices
- Change your mind any time: “Cookie preferences” sits in the footer of every page, and takes effect immediately.
- Turn analytics off later and we delete the analytics cookies from your browser at the same time, rather than just stopping new ones.
- Global Privacy Control: if your browser or extension sends this signal we treat it as an opt-out of everything optional, with no banner.
- Block everything at the browser level: the site works fine without optional cookies. Only sign-in needs its own cookie, and only if you sign in.
