Found: The privacy policy says "No cookies are set by this site." If Umami is deployed cookieless (which it supports), this is accurate.

Gap: Verify and document this. If any third-party scripts are added later (analytics, chat widgets, newsletter popups), they may set cookies and require a consent banner.

Needs:

Verify Umami is configured in cookieless mode
Document in privacy policy that Umami runs cookieless
If any cookie-setting scripts are ever added, add a consent banner immediately
Consider adding a minimal note: "We use privacy-respecting analytics that do not track you across sites"
