Cookies
This website sets no cookies. This page exists so that you can check that claim rather than take it on trust.
Last updated September 2026
What the site does not do
- It sets no cookies of any kind, first-party or third-party, essential or otherwise.
- It stores nothing in your browser's local storage or session storage.
- It runs no analytics, no visitor counter and no heat-mapping.
- It loads no advertising, no social-media embeds, no chat widgets and no tracking pixels.
- It has no accounts, no login and no shopping cart, so there is nothing that would need a cookie.
You can confirm this yourself: open your browser's developer tools on any page of this site, look at the storage or cookies panel for hookefamily.com, and you will find it empty.
The one external request
The pages use two typefaces, Archivo and Newsreader, which are loaded from Google Fonts. Fetching them sends an ordinary web request to Google's servers, which includes your IP address as any web request does. Google's handling of that request is described in Google's own privacy policy. Google Fonts does not set cookies. If you would rather not make that request, blocking fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com in your browser will cause the site to fall back to your system's fonts and everything will still work.
The buttons on the site open a message in your own email program. That happens on your device; the website is not involved after the link is clicked and does not know whether you sent anything. What we do with an email you send is described in the privacy policy.
If this ever changes
If we ever add anything to the site that sets a cookie or stores data in your browser, this page will say what it is, why it is there and how to refuse it, before it goes live. Until then, there is nothing to consent to and no banner to dismiss.
