Why there is no cookie banner

UK rules ask for consent before a site stores anything that is not strictly needed for a service you asked for. Everything above is needed: it keeps you signed in, remembers your setup, or keeps a tool connected because you connected it. So Tassel does not ask.

If analytics or anything optional is added later, Tassel will ask first and this page will change. [Reviewer to confirm this reading of the rules].

How to clear them

Use Delete my data, disconnect a tool on the Connections page, or clear this site’s data in your browser settings.
