Short version
Your theme choice, if you make one, and an analytics id. No advertising cookies, no tracking across other people's sites. The portfolio's cookie policy covers www.shrikumarsharma.in.

The essential ones
None are essential. The theme keys are only written when you pick a theme, and every page works without any of the items above.
Opting out of analytics
For PostHog: turn on Do Not Track, block or clear cookies for shrikumarsharma.in, or open any page with ?ph_optout=1. Google Analytics, when it is on, is stopped by blocking cookies or Google's opt-out add-on, not by those two switches. The privacy notice has the details.
Third-party cookies
PostHog's and, when switched on, Google Analytics' cookies are set on shrikumarsharma.in itself, not on their own domains, and are shared only between this site and the portfolio. Fonts loaded from Google by the notes set no cookies.
Managing cookies in your browser
Every browser lets you see and delete cookies and site data for one site: look for "Cookies and site data" or "Manage website data" in its privacy settings, and search for shrikumarsharma.in.
Changes to this policy
When something new is stored, it is added to the table above and the date at the top moves.
