Cookies & consent
This page summarizes cookies and similar storage used on www.10xsheets.com. For broader privacy context, see the Privacy policy. You can change analytics preferences anytime via (footer link).
1. How we use consent
We load Google Tag Manager. When you allow Analytics, we use Google Analytics 4 for aggregate measurement. When you allow Ads & personalization, we can enable Google tags that need advertising cookies (for example Google Ads or remarketing) without changing this page again. In strict regions, a first-visit dialog captures your choices; elsewhere defaults may be on and you can change them in Cookie settings.
Technical signals use Google's Consent Mode so tags respect your choice.
2. Cookie list (first-party names)
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| xs_consent | Stores JSON preferences (documented shape in the live banner). Covers analytics and marketing / ads choices. Legacy accept / reject values remain supported for older browsers. {"v":2,"a":…,"m":…} v1a / v1r | About 180 days |
| theme / next-themes | Remembers light/dark appearance (local storage where supported). | Persistent (local) |
Third-party domains: When you allow analytics or ads, requests may go to Google (for example googletagmanager.com, google-analytics.com, and ad-related Google domains if those tags are enabled in GTM). See Google's policies for their cookies and retention.
3. Categories
We describe each category in plain language first. Where we name Google Consent Mode parameters, those are the technical signals our site sends so Google Tag Manager and linked tags can align with your Ads & personalization choice—useful for transparency and audits; you do not need to memorize them to make a choice in .
- Necessary — security, load balancing, and UI preferences that are essential to deliver the site you request.
- Analytics — optional measurement to understand aggregate traffic (GA4 via GTM). Disabled until you accept where our consent model requires it. Uses Google's analytics_storage consent type.
- Marketing / ads — optional advertising, remarketing, and ad-related personalization when we enable those tags in GTM. The same Ads & personalization toggle controls Consent Mode: ad_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization, and personalization_storage.
