Cookie notice

This notice explains the cookies and similar browser storage used by MASCA Australia, including which functions are necessary and which are optional.

Your current choice

Optional analytics remain off until you allow them. You can review or change your choice at any time using the button below or the “Cookie preferences” link in the website footer.

What we mean by cookies

“Cookies” is commonly used as a broad term for cookies and similar technologies, including local browser storage. These tools can remember a choice, maintain a secure session or help a website understand how it performs.

Necessary storage

Necessary storage supports functions you request or helps keep the service secure. It cannot be disabled through our preference panel.

  • Privacy preference: the key masca:privacy-preferences:v1 is stored locally in your browser to remember whether you allowed optional analytics. It remains until you clear site data or MASCA replaces the preference version.
  • CMS administration: authorised committee members may receive essential session, security and interface-preference cookies when using the private /admin area.

Optional analytics and performance

If you select “Allow analytics”, the site loads Vercel Web Analytics and Speed Insights. Web Analytics provides anonymised traffic information without placing third-party cookies. Speed Insights measures real-user website performance, including Core Web Vitals. These services may process technical information such as the page visited, approximate location, browser or device details, timestamps and performance measurements.

MASCA uses this information to understand which pages are useful and to identify performance issues. We do not use advertising cookies or MASCA-controlled cross-site behavioural tracking.

External websites

Our pages link to social networks, event sites and other organisations. Following those links may allow the external site to use its own cookies or tracking technologies. Their privacy and cookie notices apply independently of MASCA's settings.

Browser controls

You can also delete or block site data using your browser settings. Clearing the MASCA site's storage removes your saved preference, so we will ask you again on your next visit. Blocking necessary cookies may prevent the CMS administration area from working correctly.

Updates

We will update this notice when our storage or analytics practices materially change. See our privacy policy for broader information about how MASCA handles personal information.
