Cookie Policy

We use cookies and similar technologies (pixels, local storage) to run the site, remember preferences, measure audience, and — with consent — personalize ads. This policy should work alongside your consent management platform (OneTrust, Cookiebot, etc.).

1. What are cookies?

Small text files stored on your device. First-party cookies are set by us; third-party cookies are set by partners (analytics, video, advertising).

2. Categories

• Strictly necessary: security, load balancing, subscription access — always on.
• Functional: language, layout, saved articles — can be declined but may reduce convenience.
• Analytics: aggregated traffic and funnels — often on legitimate interest; in some regions requires consent.
• Marketing / advertising: frequency capping, attribution — typically consent-based under ePrivacy and similar rules.

3. Your choices

Use our cookie banner (to be wired) to accept or reject non-essential categories. Browser settings can block cookies globally; incognito mode reduces persistence. Industry opt-outs: your region may offer DAA, EDAA, or similar tools for interest-based ads.

4. Data retention

Session cookies expire when you close the browser; persistent cookies may last months — each vendor differs. Maintain a cookie table in your privacy center for auditors.
