Cookie Policy

SOHMA uses cookies and similar technologies on sohma.org to recognize visitors and enhance your browsing experience.

Types of Cookies We Use

Performance & Functionality

These cookies enable features like embedded video (YouTube) and basic site functionality. They do not collect personally identifiable information.

Analytics & Customization

We use analytics tools including Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our site, helping us improve content and user experience.

Advertising

Advertising cookies from Google Ads, Facebook, and DoubleClick may be used to deliver relevant advertisements based on your interests.

Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You can manage cookie preferences through the Cookie Preference Center displayed in the site banner. Essential cookies required for site operation cannot be rejected. You may also accept or refuse cookies through your browser settings, though some site functionality may be affected.

Accessibility Preferences

If you use the accessibility options available in the lower-left corner of every page, your choices — text size, contrast, spacing, and similar display settings — are saved in your browser’s local storage under the key sohma-a11y. This is a strictly necessary functional setting: it is stored only on your own device, is never transmitted to us or to any third party, and is not used for tracking or advertising. You can remove it with the “Reset all settings” button in that panel, or by clearing your browser storage. See our accessibility statement for details.

Web Beacons

We may use web beacons (tracking pixels) to monitor site traffic, measure the effectiveness of email campaigns, and improve overall performance.
