Cookie Policy
Last Updated: January 15, 2026
This policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and how you can control them. We've written this in plain language to make it as clear as possible.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device (computer, phone, or tablet) when you visit them. They help websites remember information about your visit, like your preferences and actions.
Cookies are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and provide information to website owners. They're a standard part of the modern web.
Most browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can choose to accept, reject, or delete cookies at any time.
Types of Cookies We Use
We use several types of cookies for different purposes:
1. Essential Cookies (Required)
These cookies are necessary for the site to function properly. They enable basic features like page navigation and access to secure areas.
Purpose:
- Keep the site working correctly
- Remember your consent choices
- Maintain security and prevent fraud
Can you disable them? No. These cookies are required for the site to work. Blocking them may cause the site to malfunction.
2. Analytics Cookies (Optional)
These cookies help us understand how visitors use our site by collecting anonymous information about pages viewed, time spent, and navigation paths.
Purpose:
- Measure site traffic and engagement
- Understand which content is most helpful
- Identify technical issues
- Improve user experience
Examples:
- Google Analytics (tracks site usage and traffic)
Can you disable them? Yes. You can opt out through your browser settings or Google's opt-out tools. Disabling these cookies won't affect your ability to read our content.
3. Affiliate/Marketing Cookies (Optional)
These cookies track when you click on affiliate links and visit partner sites. They allow us to earn commissions when you sign up for services or make purchases through our referrals.
Purpose:
- Credit us for referrals when you click our links
- Track conversions (sign-ups, purchases) from our site
- Measure which content and recommendations are most helpful
Examples:
- Affiliate network cookies (CJ Affiliate, ShareASale, Impact, etc.)
- Partner tracking pixels
Can you disable them? Yes. You can block these cookies through your browser settings. Disabling them won't affect your ability to read our content, but it may prevent us from earning commissions on your purchases.
4. Advertising Cookies (Optional, if applicable)
These cookies may be used to serve targeted ads based on your interests and browsing behavior across different websites.
Purpose:
- Show relevant ads based on your interests
- Limit how many times you see the same ad
- Measure ad effectiveness
Can you disable them? Yes. You can opt out of personalized advertising through browser settings, ad network opt-out tools, or industry opt-out programs like the NAI or DAA.
First-Party vs. Third-Party Cookies
First-Party Cookies
These are cookies set by our site directly. We use them for essential site functionality and to understand how you interact with our content.
Third-Party Cookies
These are cookies set by external services we use, such as Google Analytics, affiliate networks, or advertising platforms. These third parties have their own privacy policies that govern how they use your data.
We carefully vet third-party services, but we're not responsible for their privacy practices. We encourage you to review their policies.
How Long Do Cookies Last?
Session Cookies
These are temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser. They're used for essential site functionality.
Persistent Cookies
These cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. They're used to remember your preferences and track long-term site usage.
Typical durations:
- Analytics cookies: Up to 26 months
- Affiliate cookies: 30–90 days (varies by partner)
- Advertising cookies: Varies (typically 30–90 days)
How to Control Cookies
Browser Settings
Most browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can:
- Block all cookies
- Accept only first-party cookies (block third-party cookies)
- Delete cookies after each browsing session
- Delete specific cookies manually
- Receive a notification before a cookie is set
How to manage cookies in popular browsers:
Opt-Out Tools
You can also use these tools to opt out of specific types of tracking:
- Google Analytics Opt-Out
- NAI Opt-Out Tool (for advertising networks)
- DAA WebChoices Tool (for interest-based ads)
Do Not Track (DNT)
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" setting that sends a signal to websites requesting that they don't track you. However, there's no industry standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals, and we currently don't alter our behavior based on DNT requests.
What Happens If You Block Cookies?
Impact of blocking cookies:
- Essential cookies: Blocking these may cause the site to malfunction or prevent access to certain features
- Analytics cookies: No impact on your experience; we just won't be able to track site usage
- Affiliate cookies: No impact on your experience; we may not receive credit for referrals
- Advertising cookies: You'll still see ads, but they may be less relevant to your interests
You can read our content and use most features of the site even if you block non-essential cookies.
