MimicRadarCookie notice
MimicRadar sets only what it needs to work, plus advertising measurement that loads solely if you accept it. You choose, and you can change your mind at any time from the Cookie settings link in the footer.

This loads only after you press Accept. If you decline, or have not answered, the Google tag is never loaded and no advertising cookies are set. Google describes its own use of this data at business.safety.google/privacy.
How we ask, and how to change your answer
Under the EU ePrivacy rules, the UK PECR and equivalent national laws, consent is needed for storage that is not strictly necessary. Everything in the first table is strictly necessary to sign you in, remember your choice or complete a payment you asked for, so it is exempt. The advertising measurement is not, so visitors in the EEA, the UK, Switzerland and Canada are asked before anything loads, and declining is one click, just like accepting. Use the Cookie settings link in the footer to change your answer at any time; a withdrawal takes effect immediately.
Do Not Track and US opt-outs
We do not sell personal information and we run no cross-site behavioural advertising profiles. If you prefer no advertising measurement at all, decline it in the cookie dialog; that choice is respected everywhere, including the United States.
How to remove them
You can delete cookies and site data for mimicradar.com from your browser settings at any time. Doing so signs you out; monitoring and alerts continue to run and you can sign in again whenever you like.
