Cookie Policy

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website saves on your device while you browse. They are widely used to make sites work, remember your preferences, or measure how a page is used. Similar technologies (such as browser local storage and tracking pixels) work the same way and are covered by this policy.

Cookies we use

Strictly necessary

Required for the site to work. The only one in this category today is a small entry in your browser’s local storage that remembers the choice you made in our consent banner, so we do not show the banner on every page.

Analytics (when enabled)

Help us understand, in aggregate, which pages and activities visitors use. When analytics is enabled, areyoubored.net uses Google Analytics for this. Analytics cookies are only set after you accept them in the banner.

Advertising (when enabled)

Used by advertising partners to show ads and measure their performance. When ads are enabled, we use Google AdSense, which may set its own cookies on your device. Google and its partners may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. You can opt out of personalized ads at Google Ads Settings and aboutads.info/choices. Advertising cookies are only set after you accept them in the banner.

Change or withdraw your consent

You can change or withdraw your cookie consent at any time. Use the button below to clear the choice we have stored on your device. The consent banner will reappear and you can pick again.

Reopen cookie banner

You can also clear or block cookies through your browser’s settings. Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge each provide help pages with step-by-step instructions.

Browser Do Not Track

Some browsers can send a Do Not Track signal. Because there is no industry consensus on what it means in practice, we do not use it as a preference signal. The choice you make in our consent banner is the source of truth for this site.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top of the page reflects the most recent revision. If we add a new category of cookies (for example, social embeds), we will update this page first and re-prompt the consent banner where required.
