Racket Stries

Tales from the tramlines. Real club players, real shanked volleys, real WhatsApp groups that got out of hand.

Cookies

We'd love to say there's a tin of biscuits involved. There isn't. This page lists what the blog stores in your browser, and when.

If you say no, or don't choose

We store one thing: your answer, so we don't keep asking. Visits are still counted, but without cookies. PostHog works out a short-lived anonymous code on its servers, nothing goes onto your device, and we can't recognise you from one day to the next. More about that on the privacy page.

If you say yes

PostHog also stores an anonymous ID, so we can tell when someone comes back and which stories they read on different days. It doesn't contain your name or anything else about you, and it's never shared with advertisers.
