This policy explains how The Yard AI Foundry uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on theyard.africa.
The Yard's own analytics are cookieless. We use Plausible Analytics — a privacy-first tool that collects no personal data, sets no cookies, and requires no consent banner under GDPR, PECR, or Kenya's Data Protection Act 2019. You will not see a cookie popup for our own analytics because none is legally required.
However, some third-party tools embedded on this site (such as Google Forms for fellowship applications) may set their own cookies. This policy explains what, why, and how to control them.
Our own analytics are cookieless — no personal data, no tracking, no consent required.
We use functional cookies to remember your preferences on this site — such as your cookie consent choice. These are essential for the site to work properly and cannot be disabled.
Some pages on this site embed third-party tools — such as forms and communication services. These third parties may set their own cookies, governed by their own privacy policies. Choosing "Essential only" will block these where technically possible.
We do not use advertising cookies, retargeting pixels, or any cross-site tracking technology. We do not sell your data to third parties for advertising purposes.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block, delete, or be notified about cookies. You can also use the "Essential only" option in our cookie banner to limit third-party cookies where possible.
If we add new tools that set cookies, we will update this policy and the date above. Significant changes will be noted in the cookie banner.
