If you have not made a choice, this site loads Microsoft Clarity as soon as a page opens, with analytics storage and advertising storage both denied. In this limited mode, Clarity does not set cookies and uses a separate unique ID for each page. It still records how the page is used and sends that usage data to Microsoft. All page text and form fields are masked. This site does not put custom visitor IDs or entered information into Clarity custom events. Clarity does not run on payment, receipt, private or staging pages. It also does not run on a page when that page's address or the referring address contains query parameters (the part after “?”).

Clarity starts without waiting for a choice. A banner appears 60 seconds after Clarity starts. In it, you can allow Clarity analytics cookies or turn Clarity off. Time on the site, scrolling and clicking are not treated as consent. If you allow cookies, Clarity can use analytics cookies. While your choice is valid, this also applies from the start of later visits. Advertising storage stays denied. If you turn Clarity off, the Clarity script stops, Clarity cookies are cleared and the page reloads. While that choice is valid, Clarity does not load or record. You can change your choice at any time in “Clarity analytics settings” in the footer, including before the banner appears. Choices are valid for 180 days. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track signal, Clarity stays off entirely.

Microsoft receives the usage data that Clarity sends. Microsoft may use it as described in the Microsoft Privacy Statement, including to improve its own products and for Microsoft Advertising.
