Operative — legal review in progress
This policy is current and operative; a final legal review is in progress — last updated 2026-07-11. It is written to be clear and protective, but it is not legal advice. If anything here conflicts with a signed agreement between you and Champlin Enterprises, that agreement controls.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files a site stores in your browser. Similar technologies (local storage, pixels, SDKs) do comparable things. We use them to keep you signed in, to remember your choices, and — only with your consent — to measure how SafeHaven is used.
2. The categories we use
Strictly necessary (always on)
These are required for the Service to work — signing you in, keeping your session secure, remembering your age-gate confirmation and your cookie choice. They do not require consent because the Service cannot function without them. Examples include our session/authentication token, the age confirmation flag, and the safehaven.consent value that records your choice below.
Analytics (off until you accept)
These help us understand aggregate usage so we can improve. They load only after you accept in the cookie banner:
- Google Analytics 4 — aggregate traffic measurement, provided by Google LLC. Runs under Google Consent Mode v2: denied by default, enabled only on your consent. Typical cookies:
_gaand_ga_<id>(used to distinguish visitors; expire up to ~2 years). - Pulse — our own first-party analytics (pulse.champlinenterprises.com), operated by Champlin Enterprises. The Pulse pixel is injected only after you consent and is used for the same measurement purpose without adding third parties.
Operational / security (legitimate interest)
- BugHive — our own first-party error and crash tracking (bughive.champlinenterprises.com), used to detect and fix bugs and keep the Service secure. It carries no analytics/marketing cookie and runs as a legitimate interest, so it is not part of the analytics opt-in.
3. How to opt out or change your choice
When you first visit, our cookie banner lets you Accept or Declineanalytics. If you decline, GA4 stays in its denied Consent Mode state and the Pulse pixel is never loaded. To change your mind later, clear this site’s cookies and local storage in your browser (which removes the saved safehaven.consent choice) and the banner will appear again on your next visit. You can also block or delete cookies entirely in your browser settings; note that blocking strictly-necessary cookies may break sign-in and other features.
4. Do Not Track & global signals
Because our analytics are off by default and only load on explicit consent, declining the banner achieves the same result as a “do-not-track” preference for the tools described here.
