Your choices
Rejecting optional analytics does not affect bookings, private galleries, downloads, photo choices or sign-in. If you later turn analytics off, the analytics session identifier is removed and no further page-view events are sent from that browser.
You can also remove stored data using your browser controls. Clearing essential storage may sign you out or reset gallery and display preferences.
Third-party resources
The site currently requests its Manrope typeface from Google Fonts. That request can reveal technical information such as your IP address to Google, but GTB Photography does not use it for advertising. SmugMug media is requested when a connected gallery contains content hosted there. Those services have their own privacy notices.
