This handbook loads Google Analytics 4, Microsoft Clarity and Adsterra advertising by default, with external links to YouTube. A first visit is treated as granted; Reject turns the ad and analytics scripts off and remembers that choice for 180 days. This page lists the storage each service can write.

| Service | Purpose | Storage names | Retention | When it loads |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| This site | Remember OK or Reject | localStorage key southhell.consent | 180 days, then the key expires in the browser | First visit: we record granted and show the notice, unless GPC or DNT says otherwise. Reject records denied. |
| This site | Remember a closed floating ad bar | localStorage key southhell.social.closed | 180 days | When you press the close button on the Adsterra Social Bar. |
| Google Analytics 4 (G-Y3L4PLTKLF) | Measure pages and traffic | Cookies _ga and _ga_Y3L4PLTKLF; gtag data layer in memory | _ga and _ga_* up to 2 years | By default on the first paint. Reject sends denied signals, disables measurement and reloads the page without the Google tag. |
| Microsoft Clarity (project zaih2szxc9) | Heatmaps and session replay | Cookies _clck, _clsk, CLID and MUID; vendor storage under clarity.ms | _clck up to 1 year; _clsk up to 1 day; CLID and MUID set by Microsoft | By default on the first paint. Reject withdraws Clarity consent and reloads the page without the Clarity loader. |
| Adsterra (publisher 3403020, website 6185432) | Serve NativeBanner_1 (unit 32162030) and SocialBar_1 (unit 32162031) | Cookies and local storage under bicea.org and its demand hosts; observed names include _eabid, _eabk, _eeabb and _eppk | Set by Adsterra and its demand partners; we do not publish an unverified expiry for their storage | By default on the first paint. Reject removes both units and the floating bar for 180 days. |
| YouTube (Google) | Play a walkthrough video | YouTube manages storage on its own site after you follow an external video link | Set by YouTube, not by us | External link only. This website loads no YouTube player, iframe, thumbnail or YouTube request. YouTube applies its own policy after you leave. |
This site loads analytics, session replay and ads by default. The first visit writes southhell.consent with choice granted and shows a notice. OK keeps granted. Reject writes denied, closes the notice and removes the Clarity tag, the Adsterra Native Banner and the Social Bar; it also sends a denied Consent Mode update to Google Analytics 4, disables measurement and reloads the page so previously running vendor code stops. Later pages omit all three vendor loaders while the choice is valid. Cookie settings in the footer opens the notice again so you can change the choice. These choices are remembered for 180 days. Consent Mode starts with ad_storage, ad_user_data and ad_personalization denied, analytics_storage granted, and ads_data_redaction enabled before any config call; the recorded site choice is then applied before measurement.
A browser with Global Privacy Control, or Do Not Track set to 1, is treated as Reject before any tag runs: the site records denied and does not create the Clarity or Adsterra requests. You can also delete site data for southhell.org in your browser, which removes southhell.consent and southhell.social.closed.
The site itself writes no cookie. It uses two localStorage keys: southhell.consent (your OK or Reject choice, 180 days) and southhell.social.closed (a closed floating bar, 180 days). Google Analytics 4 uses first-party cookies to count visits and distinguish returning browsers; the measurement ID in this build is G-Y3L4PLTKLF. Microsoft Clarity uses cookies and vendor storage to group sessions and draw heatmaps; the project ID is zaih2szxc9. Adsterra and its demand partners may set cookies or local storage on bicea.org and on creative or demand hosts such as cdn.show-creative1.com, cdn.show-sb.com, cdn.cloudpiko.com and static.nresystems.com to cap frequency, measure clicks and choose creatives. The delivered Adsterra loaders have used names such as _eabid, _eabk, _eeabb and _eppk; the network may add others. YouTube may set its own cookies on youtube.com after you follow a video link.
We rely on your consent for analytics, session replay and advertising, recorded by the notice and withdrawable at any time through Cookie settings or by deleting site data. Where consent is not the applicable basis, we rely on a legitimate interest in measuring readership, keeping the handbook available and funding its hosting with advertising. We have no reader account system. Hosting and third-party providers may process request logs, device details and IP addresses under their own retention policies. You can ask what this policy means, request deletion of a message you sent us, or object to processing by emailing the contact address. You may also complain to your local data-protection authority.
Adsterra may personalize advertising using its own signals. You can opt out of personalized advertising at Google Ad Settings, About Your Ad Choices (DAA), the NAI opt-out and Your Online Choices. Opting out does not remove ads; it stops personalized ads. Our ads.txt declares adsterra.com, 3403020, DIRECT, which is the publisher ID shown in the Adsterra panel for this site. Adult ads are switched off for this website.
The date under the title is the date of this text. A material change updates that date and the table above. This policy describes the build that ships GA4 G-Y3L4PLTKLF, Clarity zaih2szxc9 and Adsterra units 32162030 and 32162031; if an ID or a unit changes, this page and the site code change together.
The site itself uses two localStorage keys, southhell.consent and southhell.social.closed. Google Analytics 4, Microsoft Clarity and Adsterra can set cookies here as described in the table. YouTube only receives your visit if you follow an external link.
Yes. A first visit is treated as granted, so GA4, Clarity and Adsterra load on the first paint. Reject turns them off and remembers that choice for 180 days.
Use Cookie settings in the footer, or delete site data for southhell.org. Reject also removes the Adsterra units and the floating Social Bar.
